Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set in Feudal Japan, an era long requested by the series’ fans. Like every entry in Assassin’s Creed, Shadows’ map is jam-packed with quests, powerful loot, and other points of interest.

With such a quest-filled and lively world, it can be easy to miss out on powerful and necessary loot that you’ll need to clear out many of the game’s heavily fortified areas. In this guide, we’ll focus on finding an important weapon for Yasuke, the game’s tank-like samurai protagonist. The Lethal Lotus Petal Long Katana is a legendary long katana that deals massive damage.

In the current gaming landscape, Ubisoft has been having a hard time keeping up. The open-world hitmaker reportedly was on the verge of bankruptcy desperately craving a banger. Assassin’s Creed: Shadows’ success has seemingly been a boon for the company in such dire times. Fans and critics alike received the game favorably, and it displays Ubisoft’s technical mastery over the historical open-world franchise.

The legendary weapon is located at the Miyanoue Fort in the Harima region. You’ll need to fight and kill a few regular enemies and three Samurai Daishos guarding the fort. Enter the fort through the entrance, as shown in the image above, and fight a single Samurai Daisho guarding it. Proceed further above the wooden staircase into an area with a few regular enemies and another two Samurai Daishos. Clear them off and check a shed nearby for a legendary chest containing the weapon.
