All Betrayer Locations In Assassin's Creed Shadows

Do you want to finish off The Betrayers in Assassin's Creed Shadows? This is a fairly lengthy quest chain, one that will lead you to various regions in Japan. At the very end, though, you'll get a special treat from a fella who admires Yasuke's determination. Our guide has all the information you need to find all the targets that you need to eliminate.

Where to find all Betrayer locations in Assassin's Creed Shadows

The Betrayers quest chain/assassination board comes from a character named Hori Hidemasa. Once a proud follower of Oda Nobunaga, he feels the thirst for vengeance after his master's death. Now, he asks Yasuke to take out those who had a hand in Nobunaga's downfall.

Note 1: You should start and finish this quest as Yasuke. However, in the exploration and assassination sections, you can certainly switch to Naoe if you prefer her playstyle.

Note 2: You don't need to concern yourself with most of the dialogue when chatting with Hori Hidemasa. The only important reply, which triggers the romance should you be interested in that angle, occurs once you've completed the whole arc.

Map of locations: Hori Hidemasa and the first three Betrayers

You can start the Assassin's Creed Shadows The Betrayers quest by heading to Otsu in the Mouth of Seta area in the southern part of Omi. You'll find Hori Hidemasa waiting for you near the kakurega in the village.
Once you've spoken with him, check the objectives page to see The Betrayers board. There are seven targets:
Only the first two targets have clues as to their locations.
The third target will have his location marked on your map.
The remaining four targets will be revealed later on.

Target 1: Sato Katsubei

Region: Yamashiro
Location: Inside one of the small houses at the northern yard of Yamazaki Castle.
Reward: Roaring Infamy (epic teppo) and Damage on Afflicted Enemies (rare engraving).

Target 2: Fujichika Nakayama

Region: Izumi Settsu
Location: Inside one of the rooms in Takatsuki Castle.
Reward: Ill-Fated String (epic bow)

Target 3: Endo Tomoyasu

Region: Kii
Location: This target in the Assassin's Creed Shadows The Betrayers quest can be found in the Koyasan area. Thankfully, his location will be marked on your map. However, once you get there, you'll realize that Hori Hidemasa already took him out.
Reward: None

Map of locations: The remaining four Betrayers

Once you've eliminated the first three opponents, you have to return to Hori Hidemasa's spot in Otsu. Talk to him and you'll learn more clues about the remaining targets (as shown on the map above). Now, it's time to finish off The Betrayers in Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Target 4: Sato Genta

Region: Omi
Location: He's in Nobutada Estate, which is just west of Azuchi Castle.
Reward: Sorrowful Surrender (epic katana) and Critical Chance on Consecutive Kills (rare engraving).

Target 5: Usami Yoshiko

Region: Izuma Settsu
Location: From the Katano Castle fast travel point, head outside the castle yard and check the nearby house.
Reward: You can choose to kill or spare Yoshiko. You'll receive 275 mon for your troubles.

Target 6: Itakura Shigezo

Region: Harima
Location: The clue for this fella is a bit lacking since it only says that he's working in Himeji Castle. However, he's actually in the Brewery area, which is outside the castle yard itself.
Reward: Samurai Daimyo Armor (epic armor) and Adrenaline with Backstab (rare engraving).

Target 7: Masatoshi Nakahara

Region: Tamba
Location: This time, you have to head to the Tamba region, which has level 35 enemies. Just follow the road leading west-southwest from Kyoto and Arashiyama until you arrive at Kameyama Castle. Your foe is at the training yard surrounded by several soldiers.
Reward: Warrior's Garden (legendary tanto) and Assassination on Shadow Piercer (legendary engraving).

Now that you've taken care of all The Betrayers, make your way back to Otsu. Be sure to switch to Yasuke when you talk to Hori Hidemasa and choose this reply: "Meeting you was my reward." This leads to a short scene between the two.
That's everything you need to know about how to eliminate all The Betrayers in Assassin's Creed Shadows. For your efforts, you'll receive Hori Hidemasa's Helmet (epic helmet), as well as Gold, a crafting material that can be used to upgrade any gear piece to your level without having to use any other material or mon.
Lastly, don't forget that Hidemasa is just one potential fling for Yasuke. There are several other romance options in the game.
