The world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows is filled with tons of side quests and activities to engage in, but if you’re someone looking to get the best possible gear, the castles are the activity you want to engage in. These castles are much like the forts, gang bases, and camps from the previous games in the franchise. You infiltrate, assassinate a few high-ranking targets, loot stuff, and then bail before anyone sees you. 

The Kanki Castle is one of the castles in the game that you find while exploring the Harima region of AC Shadows.  As you enter this castle, you’re assigned two Samurai Daisho to assassinate. This is one of the easier castles in the game if you know where to look. So in case you don’t, we’re here to help. In this Assassin’s Creed Shadows Kanki Castle guide, we shall go over all the Samurai Daisho locations, rewards, and more.

This castle can be found northeast of the Mount Takamikura fast travel point. It is also northwest of the Mount Haba fast travel point. Since the Mount Takamikura fast travel point is the closest, we recommend approaching the castle from there.
