Allies play an important role in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. They will occasionally help you out during action or stealth sections. You can also find and talk to them when you go back to your hideout. Some of them are also romance options for protagonists Naoe and Yasuke. So, you might want your allies to have access to the best-looking outfits. This is where ally packs come in.

You can buy a variety of ally packs from the in-game store using Helix Credits. In this guide, we’ll check out the various items present in the Kaen Ally Pack in Assassin’s Creed Shadows to decide whether it’s worth spending your Helix Credits on.

The Kaen Ally Pack offers outfits for every ally in the game. The outfits have a black color base with gold and red elements added in. The set draws clear inspiration from fire, as all your companions get a distinct regal appearance when they are equipped with these outfits.

If you’re looking to buy the Kaen Ally Pack, you’ll need to spend 500 Helix Credits. Helix Credits are a form of in-game currency used to unlock items and packs in the game’s store menu. If you don’t have enough Helix Credits, you can also purchase these by spending real money. For instance, the Helix Credit Base Pack costs $4.99 and provides you with 500 Helix Credits, which is enough to buy the Kaen Ally Pack.

Here are the items in the set:

  • Katsuhime Kaen Outfit
  • Yaya Kaen Outfit
  • Ibuki Kaen Outfit
  • Yagoro Kaen Outfit
  • Oni-yuri Kaen Outfit
  • Gennojo Kaen Outfit

The Kaen Ally Pack only unlocks cosmetic items for your in-game allies. These outfits do not impact how they perform when they aid you during the course of your playtime. So, you might want to hold off on the purchase if you have access to limited Helix Credits in your kitty and you don’t intend on buying more of the Helix Credits with real money.

Even if you’re buying Helix Credits to spend in the game’s store, we’d suggest unlocking the more useful items first. For instance, there are a variety of legendary weapons and armor that you can access only from the Store. Also, you can purchase hideout resources or unlock the location of certain important items in the game on the world map.

However, if you’re someone who wants to ensure your allies look their best at all times, you can choose to purchase the Kaen Ally Pack.
