The *Assassin’s Creed* series has always been renowned for its focus on exploration, and *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* continues this tradition. If you're considering using the Guided Exploration mode in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, here's a comprehensive guide to help you decide.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows Guided Exploration Explained
Guided Exploration mode, a feature familiar to fans of the *Assassin’s Creed* series, makes a return in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. When activated, this mode ensures that your next quest objective is always marked on the map, guiding you effortlessly to your next destination and preventing you from getting lost.
Without Guided Exploration, you'll engage in more traditional exploration and investigation. For example, if your quest involves tracking down an NPC, you'll need to use the clues provided to deduce their whereabouts or search for additional hints to guide you to your objective. Guided Exploration eliminates this detective work by directly showing you where to go next.
Should You Use Guided Exploration Mode?
The decision to use Guided Exploration mode is entirely personal. In my experience, the investigative elements in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* do not significantly enhance the gameplay. If your primary interest is in enjoying the story without the risk of getting stuck, turning on Guided Exploration can be a great choice.
How to Turn On Guided Exploration
Activating Guided Exploration is straightforward and can be done at any time during your gameplay. Simply pause the game, navigate to the menu, and select the Gameplay section. Here, you can toggle Guided Exploration mode on or off according to your preference.
