Whether you're hunting rogue samurai, twisted nobles, or mythical yokai, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is packed with deadly targets—each tied to intricate questlines and deep regional conflicts. This page serves as your hub for all known targets, linking to detailed individual pages with strategies, rewards, and where to find them.
THIS PAGE WILL CONTAIN SOME SPOILERS FOR CERTAIN MAIN STORY TARGETS.
What Are Targets in Assassin's Creed Shadows?
Targets are key individuals marked for elimination—clan leaders, rogue ronin, nobles, and even legendary beings—who represent major threats to the world of Shadows. Each one is tied to a specific faction or regional narrative and defeating them directly alters the power balance in Japan.
They are often introduced by code names such as The Golden Teppo or The Onryō Samurai, with their true identities revealed through progressive investigation. Targets differ widely—from historical military leaders and corrupt officials to mysterious yokai or elite shinobi.
Across the campaign, players will unravel conspiracies by hunting down faction members one-by-one. Whether you face off against the twisted minds of the Kabukimono or the disciplined blades of the Godai Shinobi, every target is more than a fight—they are a piece of the puzzle driving Shadows’ narrative forward.
What is the Objective Board?

The Objective Board is unlocked after the prologue and becomes your primary hub for managing all investigations, targets, and story arcs. Each board features interconnected nodes—portraits of major targets linked to investigation missions known as opportunities.
As you complete these opportunities—like interrogations, exploration, or gathering intelligence—you reveal more about each target. Once enough clues are found, their identity and location are unlocked, allowing for direct confrontation.
How you locate targets depends on the gameplay mode you use:
Exploration Mode
No map markers. You'll follow contextual clues, talk to NPCs, scout regions manually, and connect evidence to uncover the target's location. Use Scouts to search highlighted areas and increase discovery speed.
Guided Mode
For players who prefer traditional navigation. This mode provides exact map markers once enough clues or Scouts are deployed, allowing direct tracking of each target.
How to Unlock Organizations and Targets

Targets belong to distinct organizations, each with its own story arc. These factions often control regions or influence political dynamics. Unlocking a faction’s board typically involves:
- Completing a main story quest
- Speaking to a specific NPC in the open world
- Reaching a certain region or triggering an event
Some, like The Kabukimono, are introduced through exploration. Others, like The Pirate Alliance, become available during key story chapters. Some groups even require a specific character to access (e.g., Yasuke-only quests).
The Objective Board visually categorizes each organization with its own branching web of members. You can progress linearly or tackle multiple organizations at once, depending on your playstyle. Check below for a comprehensive list of all targets, where you can find them and to which organisation they belong to.
Target Count and Rewards Overview
As of now, Assassin’s Creed Shadows features a substantial number of targets to hunt down. In total there are around 45–50 distinct targets in the game (12 tied to the main Shinbakufu Onryō plot, plus dozens more across optional organizations). Each target encounter is a significant undertaking, often involving unique mission mechanics or boss-like fights.
For example, major Shinbakufu bosses have bespoke scenarios (one requires infiltrating a tea ceremony in disguise, another is a duel against a giant samurai in a fortress, etc.). Successfully eliminating a target yields a variety of rewards and benefits for the player:
Experience & Mastery Points
Defeating targets grants a large amount of XP, contributing to your character’s level progression. In fact, eliminating high-value targets is one of the ways to earn Mastery Points (used to unlock skills in Shadows’ skill trees) in addition to normal leveling. Tougher targets or “boss” enemies can outright reward Mastery Points due to their importance, accelerating your ability to upgrade both protagonists’ abilities.
Loot (Gear & Currency)
Assassination targets are known to drop valuable loot. Typically, each target or faction leader will reward a piece of high-quality equipment – often a legendary weapon or a unique engraving (a special upgrade/perk). Over the course of hunting targets you can amass powerful gear fitting for end-game play. Additionally, you’ll receive monetary rewards from completed bounty contracts or by looting targets, helping fund your upgrades and supplies.
Abilities & Upgrades
While new combat/stealth abilities in Shadows are primarily unlocked via the skill Mastery system, taking down targets can indirectly bolster your arsenal. For example, some legendary weapons obtained from targets come with unique skills or bonuses attached. Completing certain target arcs may also unlock special upgrades – one endgame target reward even includes recruiting a powerful ally character to your cause (once all 12 Shinbakufu are eliminated). In short, targets often provide lasting enhancements to your character build, either through gear attributes or points to spend on skills.
Narrative Impact (Choices & Allies)
Many target missions have story consequences or player choices involved. In some cases you are given the option to spare a target instead of assassinating them. For instance, the client who sends you after the Iron Hand Guild actually urges you to show mercy to its merchant members – you can complete those missions by extracting information without killing the targets. Likewise, one of “The Betrayers” targets (Usami Yoshiko) and a former pirate leader (Sen of the Pirate Alliance) can be talked down or spared, with the game acknowledging your decision. Choosing to spare a target might result in that character surviving to possibly aid people later (or at least not drawing the ire of certain allies), whereas killing them outright is more final.
