Step 1: Dismantle the Shinbakufu

Your primary goal is to eliminate the leaders of the Shinbakufu, the main antagonists in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. This involves completing the main story missions that lead you to each of their key members across various regions of Japan. Keep an eye on your Objectives Screen to track your targets. Defeating the final two, "The Two-Faced" and "The Horseman," in that order, will conclude the initial main story arc.
