Assassin's Creed Shadows: Flames of War Walkthrough

Assassin's Creed Shadows is a new installment in the iconic series, offering an expansive open world and two protagonists that players can switch between alternately. However, to make this happen, you must complete story missions. In this guide, we will describe the walkthrough for the quest Flames of War.
Destroy the Fortified Gate
After entering the castle, head north to the first barricade. Run and crash into the door to break it.
Eliminate the Resistance
After breaking the gate, seven shinobi will attack you. Use the learned techniques to block attacks. After the victory, continue moving forward.
Ascend to the Top of the Castle
During the battle, you will be prompted to advance further. Go east from the broken door through the open gates. If your health is low, press the appropriate button to eat a portion of food and recover. Continue moving east until you reach a staircase leading south. At the top of the stairs, your allies will blow up the door blocking the path. After the explosion, follow them.
Kill the Iga-shu Leader
After you pass through the destroyed passage, an elite shinobi will appear. This opponent is tougher than usual, as he has additional armor. The yellow bar above his health bar indicates the armor level, which must be broken first. During the battle, the game will prompt you to parry the enemy's attacks several times. Follow the on-screen prompts. After successful parries, attack and finish him off. Your allies will also assist in the battle, so the enemy will not offer significant resistance.
Reach the Inner Courtyard of Mibuno Castle
Climb the western ramp. Run and break through the closed door to proceed further. This will trigger a cutscene with Oda Nobunaga.
After the cutscene, there will be a short transition in the Animus, and then the next mission, Fight of the Kabushiba Ikki, will begin. You will now play as Fujibayashi Naoe.
