So, if players are looking to complete their Pet Collection and fill their Hideouts with four-paw friends, in this guide they will learn how to reach Okishima, and how to get their hands on the Calico Kitten pet.
How To Reach Okishima (Cat Island) In AC Shadows
Players that want to travel to Cat Island in Assassin’s Creed Shadows will need to first be able to access the Yamashiro Region, then travel to Kyoto, and from there, head north-east to Lake Biwa, in the Omi region.
They need to find the city of Otsu, and from there, head to the port where they will be able to ‘borrow’ a boat, which is the safest and fastest way to get to Cat Island without facing countless enemies on the road. If they open their maps and look for the only big lake in the game world, they will be able to spot it right away. Below, readers can find a full video on how to reach Okishima by boat.
Players will have to be extremely patient since it will be a 3-minute ride until they reach the island from the coast, but if they have reached at least level 29, they might be able to go by horse and then commission a boat on the western shore of the lake.
Remember that it is not necessary to keep the Row Boost button pressed, just once and holding the directional key will keep the bot rowing at full speed, so Naoe or Yasuke can reach Cat Island faster.
It is also important to mention that players will have to visit this region during The Wheel Turns as part of Yasuke’s quest objectives, so even if players are not completing this objective yet, it would be good to unlock its fast travel and save it for later.
