How To Get the Happy Place Trophy in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Players can get the Happy Place Trophy in Assassin’s Creed Shadows by reaching the highest point in the game. Let’s see how.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a massive RPG. It is the latest installment in Ubisoft’s AC franchise. Naturally, due to the scale of the game, it has many things for you to do, such as completing missions and objectives and collecting achievements and trophies. Shadows has a total of 55 Trophies, divided into platinum, gold, silver, and bronze.

The Happy Place is a bronze trophy, and even though it sounds simple, you can still experience some trouble getting it. This is a trophy that requires a great amount of knowledge about Shadows’ map. So, to make things easier for you, we will tell you how you can achieve the Happy Place Trophy in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

How To Unlock The Happy Place Trophy in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?

The Happy Place is a bronze trophy in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, as we discussed. It is the most common category in the game, so some might think that all of the trophies in it will be fairly simple. However, that is only partially true and not always the case.

For the Happy Place trophy, players need to seek out and reach the highest point in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Now, if you have played the game, then you would know that Shadows is a huge game with a massive map and an open world. So, finding the highest peak in such a big landscape manually would be an extremely difficult task.

Travel to Yoshino

There are a total of nine regions in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The highest point in the entire RPG is the Mountain Hakkyo in the Yoshino subregion. It is in the southeast part of Yamato near the border of Kii. If you experience trouble finding it, then open your map and look for the Nyoirinji Temple near the river in Yamato; the mountain will be south of it.

In addition to it, the Mountain Hakkyo is a viewpoint. In AC games, the highest peak of a settlement, city, or place is generally a viewpoint, and this is no exception. So, to get this achievement, you must scale the mountain and synchronize with the top spot.

Reach the Viewpoint To Get The Happy Place Trophy

If you are too far away from the location in question, we recommend putting a marker on it on the map and then pressing the left D-Pad to activate the pathfinder feature. After that, a white line will appear on the road for you to follow. It is possible to reach the top of the mountain on horseback. However, in true AC fashion, you will still have to climb a little to reach the tree branch on top of the rock formation.

Once you are on top of the viewpoint, simply synchronize, and after the animation is over, you will get the Happy Place Trophy. However, if you do not see the trophy pop-up after doing this activity, rebooting the game might solve that issue.
