"Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Guide to Adding Animals to Your Hideout"

In *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, after unlocking the Hideout, players can enhance their personal space by adding various animals for companionship. Here's a detailed guide on how to unlock and add these furry friends to your Hideout.

How to Unlock Animals in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

To unlock animals for your Hideout, Naoe or Yasuke can interact with different breeds of cats and dogs throughout the game. Each new breed you pet for the first time will be available to add to your space. This includes a variety of dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens, such as the stray from the pre-order DLC quest "Thrown to the Dogs."

Yasuke also has the unique ability to unlock smaller animals like rabbits, fox kits, tanukis, and monkeys by painting them. If you encounter and document these animals in the wild, you can subsequently add them to your Hideout.

For those interested in farm animals, various vendors across Japan offer oxen and goats for purchase, using in-game currency called mon.

How to Add Animals to the Hideout in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Choose the animal you wish to add, and you'll be taken to an overhead view of the Hideout. Select an open grid on the map to place your animal. Remember, once placed, animals will roam freely, so they might not always be in the same spot when you return.

You can add multiple instances of the same animal to the Hideout, including the pup from "Thrown to the Dogs." However, there's a limit to the total number of animals you can have at once. You can always remove or replace animals by using the build mode to erase and add new ones as desired.

That’s the complete guide on how to add animals to the Hideout in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.

*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
