Instead, you&#8217;ll be guided right to where you need to go. This can result in instances where it&#8217;s possible to skip objectives that would otherwise give you clues as to your target&#8217;s exact spot.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that <strong>guided exploration can be enabled and disabled at any time<\/strong> during your playthrough via the gameplay tab of the settings menu.<\/p>\n<p>As the in-game description notes: guided exploration does circumvent many of the new additions in Shadows in the name of streamlining quests and exploration. For example, you can&#8217;t use scouts to scan the map (but they can still be used for their other purposes, like smuggling). Because of this, <strong>you won&#8217;t be able to get all of the achievements<\/strong>, though they&#8217;re not technically disabled either.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, you won&#8217;t be able to get the Scouting Mission achievement since this requires you to gather information using a scout. However, since this mode can be turned on or off whenever you want, you could simply disable it, grab this achievement, and then turn guided exploration back on.<\/p>\n<p>Guided exploration undoubtedly takes away one of the best new additions to Shadows, though streamlining the quest-tracking system does make it a more relaxing experience. It&#8217;s up to you how much investigating you&#8217;d like to do before stabbing the next bad guy on your hit list.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"306068a4-08b5-4945-8a4f-37935bd5b0cf\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Best AC Shadows weapons\" data-dimension48=\"Best AC Shadows weapons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1080px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"6xVvyCyA8tDXTamFmD28E3\" name=\"assassins creed shadows boxout\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/assassins-creed-shadows-guided-exploration-explained-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-best-weapons\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"306068a4-08b5-4945-8a4f-37935bd5b0cf\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Best AC Shadows weapons\" data-dimension48=\"Best AC Shadows weapons\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Best AC Shadows weapons<\/strong><\/a>: Superior firepower<strong><br \/><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-best-armour\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best AC Shadows armour<\/strong><\/a>: The best threads<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-skills-best\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best AC Shadows skills<\/strong><\/a>: Level up<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-knowledge-rank-points\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows knowledge rank<\/strong><\/a>: Get knowledge<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-scouts-increase\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows scouts<\/strong><\/a>: Get more trusty recons<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-rations-upgrades\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows rations<\/strong><\/a>: Get more healing items<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-hideout-best-buildings-upgrades\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows hideout<\/strong><\/a>: Best buildings to get first<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-shadow-projects-unlock-rewards\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows Shadow Projects<\/strong><\/a>: Free loot<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-butterfly-locations-the-butterfly-collector-quest\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows origami butterfly locations<\/strong><\/a>: Collect &#8217;em all<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-change-seasons\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>AC Shadows change seasons<\/strong><\/a>: Weather warning<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/assassins-creed\/ac-shadows-guided-exploration\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assassin&#8217;s Creed Shadows throws a heap of important choices at you right at the beginning of the game, some even with permanent changes.
