All 109 Viewpoint locations in Assassin's Creed Shadows
Find and check off all 109 Viewpoints in AC Shadows
Looking to track down all the Viewpoints in Assassin's Creed Shadows? Viewpoints, also known as Synchronization Points, are a longstanding feature of the Assassin's Creed series, allowing you to scout and reveal the nearby area from the highest point.
Viewpoints return in Assassin's Creed Shadows, albeit in a different form which allows you to mark various locations of interest but doesn't reveal the fog of war around you. Still, it's incredibly handy to find all 109 Viewpoints dotted across the map, because each one serves as a fast travel point that will make traversing Japan much easier.
Using the guide below, you can track down all 109 Viewpoint locations across all 9 regions of the Assassin's Creed Shadows map. Once you've found one and activated it, you can check it off from our list below to help keep track of how many remain for you to find.
