Kofuns in Assassin’s Creed Shadows They are ancient underground burials (tombs) with the structure of the labyrinth. In each of them, the legendary chest with unique weapons, armor or rare materials is hidden. In this guide, we will tell you where to find all the kofuns in AC Shadows, how to get to their entrance, what awaits you inside, and how to pick up the main prey.
What are coma and how to explore them
In AC Shadows, Kofuns are ancient Japanese burials, which are deep and confusing dungeons. Inspired by real mounds of the Kofun period (III – VII centuries), they became a kind of analogues of crypts from the past parts of the series – like pyramids in Origins or tombs in Valhalla. Items of golden rarity (weapons, talisman or armor);
How to prepare for the study of the dungeons
before it is important to prepare well. Here are some tips that will help not get stuck inside and not leave empty -handed:
- Stay before starting: some comes either do not have auto -security points, or they are located so far that you run the risk of failing before you get to them;
- Take the enemies in the vicinity that sometimes guard the entrance; some dungeons.
the character’s choice: Naoe or Yasuke?
each of the heroes reveals himself differently inside the Kofunov:
- naoe is indispensable in places where there is a lot of stealth. She is good in climbing, can squeeze into the cracks and use a hook-cat. Of the minuses: it cannot push the boxes and drag the explosives to undermine the rubble;
- Yasuke is not so dexterous, but it compensates for this by force. Its advantages and disadvantages are exactly the opposite of NAOE: he can drag red boxes and convey explosives, but is not able to use Kaginava;
you can freely switch between the heroes after the performance of the plot quest “Thunder and Lightning”. The easiest way to change the character is quick movement to the synchronization point ( to shift, you need to clamp on the map not a gap, but “f” ).
Where to find Kofuns: a map of all tombs in AC Shadows
in the open world of the game you can find 10 burials . On the upper screenshot of the map, we noted their location, and also indicated which characters to explore each burial ground.

Kofun 1: Old Kofun/Substep-Settsu
- Lut from the legendary chest: Blessing “Blessing Amateras” ( engraving “Damage” Damage for non-disputed Cells of abilities ”);
let's start with a kofun on the coast of Izumi ( to the east of Sakai/Substepa-Settsu ). To study it, you will come in handy for Naoe skills. Having reached the entrance, squeeze through the gap and advance deep into the cave.
Fill in the hole to the left of the clay figures and move forward, to a small space, under the ceiling of which there is a mount for a hook-cat. Roll up on the rope and fly to the opposite half of the hall.
when you get to the water, dive down and swim along the flooded part of the cave, which will lead you to a double -tier hall, above which there is a chain for Kanat Naoe. Move straight, through the central passage.
This path is at a dead end with a narrow opening – take the emphasis lying down and fill under it. Next, it remains to fly on a rope through an elongated section of the dungeon ( swing the NAO, make a break -out and burn q during the fall to catch on ).
for the last time using a hook-cat, you will fall into a room with a legendary chest located in the west of an old Kofun, and you can pick up the main award. The exit from the cave is located to the left of the chest: Run along the corridor, then climb up and undermine the barrel at the output before the rubble.
Kofun 2: Maki-Kurumazuka/Substep-Settsu
- Lut from the legendary chest: Luke “Bagryanz of the Earth” ( engraving-a prudent-prudent-prone “Clear Reason” );
the second burial is on the plain of Javata ( outgoing the Settsu ), east of the Takatsuki castle ( the nearest teleport-“Warrant tower Bamboo “). Make an active character Yasuke, take a powder barrel in front of the entrance to Maki-Kurumazuk and go down to the Kofun.
we blow the passage, go down into the dungeon and move the red box in the opening, on the contrary of which there is a chest with a rare bastard “powerful catana anger” . Having hit the crypt, we move another box from the opening in front and go in this direction along the flooded corridor.
Once in the room where two powder barrels are lying on the left, we take one and undermine the nearest blockage – behind it is the passage back to the crypt. Then we select the second barrel, climb with it along the stone staircase above the tomb and explode another blockage. This path leads to a flooded room with a stone protrusion above – further through the passage in front.
Having risen, you will find yourself in a small room with access to the same stone ledge above the water. Break several boxes on the right and take the powder barrel hidden behind them. Throw it on the ledge and blow up the barrier. After that, jump to the open area, go to the stop forward and climb through the narrow gap on the left.
In the hall with the rope we jump down and push the red box from the passage to the left wall, then we climb up it up ( at the dead end behind the box is a casket with a rare weapon – “exotic onions of anger”, do not forget to pick it up ).
the upper passage leads to the hall with two boxes and a stone staircase. Move the box standing under the bamboo canopy, and go inside. Next, move along a flooded corridor to a small room with a powder barrel. To take it out, first push the two closest drawers overlap the output.
Returning to the room with a bamboo canopy, leave the powder barrel of nearby and arrange the wooden boxes: a narrow slide to the left of the canopy, the second – place on the right. Then take the explosives, climb into the boxes and throw the barrel towards the blockage in the upper right corner of the cave.
Turn the barrier in the room with a stone staircase, jump to the cleared area and continue the path – it will lead to the treasury. Having taken the booty, push the box on the right and enter the room at the beginning of the Kofun, from where you can get to the surface.

the megalithic tomb will be found in Yamato, north of the Koriyam Castle ( the nearest point of synchronization – the forest of the Koryama ).
Go down to Yasuke, pushing forward a box that is an obstructing path and blow up the barrel in the opening to the left to get into the main part of the cave. You find yourself in the section with a hole in the floor – jump through it to the very bottom ( there will be no damage, there is water ).
Leave the bottom of the pit through the only pass that will lead you to the cave with the tomb. Next, you need to climb the wall to the right of the sarcophagus ( on stones with white scuffs ), jump over the broken bridge on the way, and follow it along the corridor to the left – so you will get into the room with a large stone coffin.
Put the box in the sarcophagus deep into it, and the one at the right passage, pushing through the open narrow opening behind the coffin and leave at the opposite wall.
take the box up and move to the left. Close behind wooden beams on the wall and cross along them towards the passage in the upper part of the cave. He will lead you to the average level of the pit, where you fell at the beginning. Go along the right edge until the passage in the right side of the section.
Once in the room with terracotta men, fill in the opening on the left, reach the dead end and shoot the explosives, which is visible through the gap to the right, then go back.
it remains to climb the stairs in the room with clay soldiers, pushing the box and climb into the room with the treasure. In the left half of this section, you can shift the box and quickly get to the surface.
Kofun 4: Ishibutay/Yamato
- Lut from the legendary chest: Masakado Retribution (engraving “Damage for unused skills” );
The tomb of Isibutay is located in the southeast of the pit of the stones of Asuki ( Yamato, south of the ruins of the Takatorori castle ). To study this Kofun, Naoe skills are suitable.
Going down, fill through the gap next to the clay figurine and head deeper into the dungeon. Next, you will have to jump over the stones, use wooden platforms and a hook-cat to move forward through two halls.
Once in a spacious zone with a tree, fly on a rope to a hill where it grows. Then jump onto a wooden platform and move to the exit with wooden supports. Go inside and go up the ledges on the wall.
After lifting you will get into the hall with the main treasury. Having received the award, turn left and move to the exit of Kofun.

The only mound in Omi, Adzuti-Hyeth, is located closer to the eastern border of the region, on the foothills of Suzuki ( the region is southeast Adzuti castle ). Going down to this Kofun for Yasuke, be prepared for the appearance of enemies.
select the barrel on the descent, move to the door directly ( before you understand the bandit at the entrance ) and explode the passage into the burial. Going on, we turn to the path, near which lies a stack of bamboo logs.
Next, you need to cross two sections using mobile wooden boxes for lifting. Once in the room with cephalrege, destroy enemies and climb the stairs in the right half of the room.
in front of the two more rooms with bamboo supports: the first we go through, turning around the boxes, and in the second we move the box to the middle, pick up the barrel and climb the box with it (The underwear in this room has steps ).
We throw the explosives to the blockage in the upper half of the cave and clear the way. We jump up and deal with a group of enemies guarding the treasury.
a reward chest is in the last room with bandits. In the right half there is a passage from which Kofun can leave.
Kofun 9: Takagi/Harima
- a prayer from the legendary chest: Tappo “Bud of Death” ( engraving “Quick reloading” );
the tomb of Takagi is located in Harim, in the center of the Takagi-Outsuka fortress ( burned fields of the cane, to the southwest of the Haba Haba teleport ). To calmly get inside, you will have to get rid of the bandits in the camp, then choose the explosives for Yasuke, go down to the mine and blow up the passage.
We again deal with the bandits from below, cut the bamboo crossbars on the aisle on the left and run forward. We find white scratches on the wall on the right side of the path and climb up. Next, we crawl into the hole under the wall, kill the bandit examining the sarcophagus, and then run the right.
Having reached the passage with the rubble, turn right and make our way through enemies into an explosive room. Then we use it to clear the path found earlier from the stones.
We move on and crawl under the next hole in the wall. Entering a section with a wooden container and a bamboo extension, we turn left and find explosives at an impasse.
we go back, move the red box to the middle of the room, then climb the barrel on it – from here we throw the explosive container to the stones of the stones from above, we undermine and go up and go up.
the last section of the path will lead to a cache with the bandits – we will deal with them, explode the blockage on the left ( a pair of barrels is from above and one more – we get into the room with the legendary lanter. Hence there is a direct passage to the beginning of the burial.
Kofun 10: Tyasuriuria/Tamba
- Lut from the legendary chest: Tanto “Scarlet Fate” ( Gravity “Strong attacks” );
The last Kofun Tyasuriuria is located in the same location southwest of the Fukutiyam castle (You can go down, for example, from the “Mountain Akava” ). Switch to Naue before going to explore this burial.
go into the crypt, climb through the narrow hole behind the sarcophagus, then jump in the ledge into the water at the bottom of the cave. We get ashore and continue moving forward.
Next, you need to go through two underground sections, jumping on the stones and using a hook (Clue the tool for mounting on the ceiling and swing the character to jump forward ).
when you come in front of the water, use the rope again so that Naoe will fly to the ledge in front. Then climb the wall with white traces to the left and move in this direction to the passage leading to the section with stretched ropes – continue moving forward.
Next, you will fall into the illuminated part of the cave. If you crawl into the room on the right, access to a chest with epic light armor “The robes of a quiet synobi” will open. We need to continue moving directly, passing through the gap in the wall.
we overcome the elongated section of the cave and get into the section with the red box of the assassins ( to devote it to ), and we turn off the left and squeeze out to the gap.
from the previous point go up the relief of the cave until you get into the room with the main award. There is a short path above the chest, leading back to the beginning of the burial and to the exit.
Another Kofun, accessible for research only for NAO – the ancient tomb of Nanze – is located in Yamasiro, east of the point of fast movement “Forgotten Pagoda”. Go down and squeeze through the gap in the wall to get into the first dungeon hall.
Gently go down the rope down and move forward to the room with a fenced small pond. Turn right from him.
The path will take you to the balcony, under which there are two passes. Again, select the right, then cross the flooded hall according to stalagmites and jump into the pond from below. Below on the left it will be possible to find a small hole in the wall through which you can crawl further.
getting into a room with two stairs and ceramic geese, go up and cross a small hall with a reservoir, using wall relief for lifting.

when you find yourself on the balcony over the intersection of three paths, jump down and run to the left. Then climb the stalagmites on the right side, go around the boulder on wooden boards on the floor and continue the way along the upper structures. Follow a small passage with clay horses.
following the previously described route, you will fall into a narrow section of the cave with a small pond – climb the ledges up. Going to the balcony above two aisles, jump down, take the epic amulet from the casket “Sogenby repentance” and turn to the left – the trail will lead you to the dead end with the hole.
Fill through the hole in the wall, then run forward and jump over the stones above the water. Follow further until you abundant a wall with a narrow slit – behind it is a room with a legendary treasure. A passage to the balcony is hidden behind the sarcophagus, from where you can return to the initial part of the dungeon and get to the surface of the already familiar way.
Kofun 6: Hidden Kurgan/Vakasa
the hidden mound in the northern region of the Vakasa can be found in the southwest of the Utinakao Mountain ( the closest teleport-“View of the Sandzega-Tex” ). Naoe ( take into account his research that there are enemies inside ).
Having slipped into the gap at the main entrance, you will find yourself in the section with the bandits – cross it to the passage on the opposite side. Move forward until you get to a part of the dungeon with a powder barrel lying at the blockage. Exlaim it and continue the way. The passage will lead you to the next blockage: rise on the relief of the cave to the right above the blocked passage, throw the throwing gun into the barrel, which is visible from the hole upstairs, and then go down and go through the clear opening.
cross the flooded area, jumping through the stones protruding from the water. In the room with the robbers, straighten with the enemies and go down to the passage overgrown weeds – move on it further.
the right passage from the room with the robbers will lead to a rise, at the end of which you will find explosives – tear off the barrel from afar, and then move to the hole under the stone wall.
fly through the found slit to get into the treasury and pick up the main award. Then climb the passage over the chest, move forward to the door and remove the bolt – so you will return to the starting room with the group of robbers.
Kofun 7: Simosato/Kiya
the tomb of Simosato can be found on the southeastern coast of Kia, not far from the sanctuary of Kumano Nati Taysi ( the nearest teleport-“Mount Toyama” ). To study it, you will have to take Yasuke.
we go to the Kofun, remove the red box and go down to the water. Immediately dive and swim through the underwater corridor – it will lead to land. Having emerged, head to the room with littered passage in the center.
turn into the passage on the left, go to the box and turn the left again – there is a barrel with gunpowder, which must be pulled to the rubble in the main room and clear the barrier. The descent to the water will open behind it: dive and swim forward until the wall, then pop up and go through the only available passage.
at the end of the corridor there will be a hole behind which you can see a barrel with gunpowder – we explode and go back to go through the path of the right path.

crawl under the wall to get to the next rubble. In the aisle to the left, to the blockage, there is a path to the boxes – we go here, push the barriers and take the explosives in the recess on the right, ( to go further is not necessarily ). We undermine with its help the aforementioned pile of stones.
Next, we move the box in the passage into the upper half of the section, we find another box there and use it to the aisle, near which clay vases cost. Continue to move in the chosen direction, rolling forward a couple of times. And when you find yourself above the cliff, dive into the water. At the bottom, select the path through the stone arch, get out of there to the surface.
Run through the passage with clay geese – it will bring into the room with a rubble and a powder barrel. Drive the barrier, pull out the box behind the rubble and install it against the wall, near which there was a barrel of gunpowder. Then go upstairs to the hall with the legendary treasury. Right behind the tomb there is a corridor that will lead you to the explosives, with which it will be possible to return to the beginning of the journey and leave the Kofun.
