Collectibles & Trackers
Provinces
The nine regions of the map, with what makes each one worth the trip. Two of the heavy ones: Yamashiro, Kyoto province, holds 48 collectibles and ten Legendary Chests, and mountainous Kii holds 45 (Omi holds 49 and Izumi Settsu 48) — both are better left until you have built out both characters and their traversal.
22 · TrackerCollectible Types
All 22 types with who can actually reach them — four are locked to one character, and that is the single most common reason something will not appear.
55 · TrackerTrophies
The 55 named trophies with grade and requirement. Only one is gold, and there is no difficulty trophy at all — what decides this platinum is the collectible sweeps.

About this guide
Assassin's Creed Shadows gives you two characters who play almost nothing alike, and a map that hides different things for each of them. This guide is the map of that: the nine provinces with what makes each one worth the trip, and all 22 collectible types with who can actually reach them — because four of them are locked to one character. Naoe gets the Kuji-kiri and the Hidden Trails; Yasuke gets the Katas and the Horse Archery, and no amount of exploring with the wrong one will surface them. Tick a type off as you clear it and the tracker follows you across devices and save slots. Written from public sources and cross-checked against several, with each page saying what it was checked against and where a source could not settle a number.
