In the tumultuous world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, chaos reigns, and amidst this turmoil, certain individuals seek to exploit the disorder for personal gain. This is where the Brotherhood steps in, with Naoe and Yasuke standing as guardians of the innocent. For those driven by justice and aiming to eliminate all members of the Kabukimono faction, let's guide you through the process.
The Kabukimono
Your quest to dismantle the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region, where you'll meet Shin’nyo, a compassionate priest who entrusts you with the mission to hunt these rogue ronin and restore peace to the area.
The Kabukimono faction consists of flamboyant ronin who act without regard for law or morality, causing havoc wherever they go. It's up to the assassins to intervene, bringing justice and solace to the populace. There are eight distinct targets within this faction that you need to take down.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, pinpointing the exact location of your targets is part of the challenge. The game encourages exploration and the use of clues to narrow down their whereabouts. However, if you're looking to expedite your mission and directly confront the ronin, here are the specific locations of each Kabukimono member:
Ghost General
The Ghost General, leader of the ravenous Hungry Ghosts, can be found in the Money Changer District on the western side of Sakai, in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. Given the number of enemies, it's advisable to eliminate them one by one or use Yasuke's abilities to level the playing field.
Grave Dancer
Leading the Defilers, the Grave Dancer can be found near the Sumiyoshi Shrine, south of Osaka. Head northeast from Sakai along the main road to reach this location. Dispatch him to his final resting place using your preferred weapon.
Ember
The Ember, head of the Firebrands, awaits in Osaka, north of Sakai. Navigate to the Fishermen’s District and proceed north to find him amidst some burned-down buildings. Clear the area of other combatants before engaging to ensure a safer confrontation.
Big Sueki
Big Sueki, leader of a sake-loving gang, is located in Muko Post Town, just north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. Use the surrounding bamboo and thickets for a stealthy approach before ending his revelry.
Chief Cuckoo
Once a respected samurai, Chief Cuckoo now torments the peasants in Katano. Find him at the Katano Oil Trading location on the southern edge of the town, centrally located in the Izumi Settsu region. Use the environment to your advantage for a dramatic conclusion.
Corrupt Blade/Laughing Man/Peacock
After dealing with the other members, head to Nishinomiya Shrine, west of Amagasaki Castle, to confront the final three: Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock. You have the option to tackle them individually or gather them in one place at Takagi Otsuka Fort in the Harima region. From Kakogawa Estuary, travel northeast to reach the fort, then head east to a courtyard near a medium-sized hut where they await. Utilize nearby NPCs to distract them, making your strikes count to finally eradicate the Kabukimono threat.
