Assassin’s Creed Shadows introduces castles as one of its main side activities. These castles are large sandbox levels that allow you to flex your stealth and infiltration skills, rewarding you with legendary gear and other loot upon completion. These are some of the most fun activities in the game. However, they can prove fairly difficult if you’re unsure of what you’re doing. 

With multiple Samurai Daisho to hunt while navigating your way around guards, these castles sometimes pose a harsh challenge. This is especially true in the case of the Uda Matsumaya Castle in AC Shadows, which gives you not one, not three, but four Samurai Daisho to hunt. If you’re stuck in this castle and are struggling to assassinate the Samurai Daisho or just want to know more about the rewards that await you, we have you covered. In this Assassin’s Creed Shadows Uda Matsumaya Castle guide, we shall go over all the Samurai Daisho locations, rewards, and more.
