Discover Cat Island in Assassin's Creed Shadows: Location Guide

In Ubisoft's *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, players encounter a variety of creatures, including adorable cats. If you're eager to discover the cat island in the game, we've got you covered.

How to Find the Cat Island in Assassin's Creed Shadows

To embark on this feline adventure, you'll need to journey to the Omi region, typically around the midpoint of the game's storyline. Ensure your characters are well-prepared and powered up before heading northeast towards Omi.

Your destination is Lake Biwa, a significant body of water in the center of the region. It's advisable to secure a boat from settlements like Azuchi or Omizo, though swimming is also an option if you prefer.

Aim for the larger island in the middle of Lake Biwa, located just northwest of Azuchi. Upon arrival, you'll discover Okishima Island, which features a Kakurega where you can rest. You'll notice plenty of fish being dried near the docks, indicating a food source for certain animals.

To immerse yourself in the charm of Okishima's cat population, head north towards the Leap of Faith. As you ascend, you'll encounter an increasing number of cats. Don't miss the chance to pet them, as this will add these delightful creatures to your collection for use in the Hideout. Keep an eye out for rare kittens, which are particularly elusive elsewhere.

While most Leaps of Faith reveal new locations on your map, the true treasure of Okishima is the companionship of its feline inhabitants. After exploring and landing in the haystack, you can revisit the cats at your leisure. Additionally, you'll return to Okishima later in Yasuke's storyline, adding another layer of excitement to your journey.
