Assassin’s Creed Shadows has a ton of side activities for you to sink hours into, but if you want a moderate challenge while also seeking legendary gear, then the castles are what you want to infiltrate. Castles in AC Shadows are reskinned forts/camps from previous games, where you have to infiltrate and kill key targets in the area. Along the way, you also have to loot chests and obtain valuable gear. 

The Tsuruga Castle is one of the castles you stumble across in Wakasa. In this stronghold, your job is to infiltrate a heavily guarded stronghold and assassinate two Samurai Daisho, with some Legendary armor as your reward. If you’re struggling on this castle and need help, we have you covered. In this Assassin’s Creed Shadows Tsuruga Castle guide, we shall go over all the Samurai Daisho locations, rewards, and more.

You have to assassinate two Samurai Daisho when inside Tsuruga Castle. This castle is heavily guarded, so you are advised to find a vantage point and scout the area beforehand. Marking the Samurai Daisho pings them with a helmet icon above their heads, making them easier to track. If you can’t spot the Daisho, we recommend narrowing down your search to the following locations: 

  • Samurai Daisho #1: The first Samurai Daisho is in a courtyard at the southeastern end of the castle. 
  • Samurai Daisho #2: Kill the first Samurai Daisho and vault over the fence to your north to find another courtyard to find the second Samurai Daisho in the courtyard.
