How to unlock Shadowlord in Date Everything
With perhaps one of the most memorable names inDate Everything(which is saying something), XXXShadowlord420XXX is one of the more unique romance options in the dating sim.
Sure, you’re able to date the toilet, a toaster, or an air fryer priest, but very few ofthe 100 characters in Date Everythinglive up to XXXShadowlord420XXX (who we’ll be calling Shadowlord for the foreseeable). This character isn’t only extremely tough to find, but he’s also a pretty tricky one to befriend or romance. Unsurprisingly, he’s not that hard to get a hate ending with, though.
So, whether you’re just looking to fall in love with this creepy shadow, uncover him in the first place, or grab all those collectibles, here’s all you need to know.
Shadowlord location
To find Shadowlord,head over to Gaia, the globe in the dining room, and use your Dateviators on the rather dark shadowemanating from her.
Given the whole Shadowlord name, it makes sense that he’s a literal shadow and will soon appear once you use your glasses. From then on, just head to the same place to talk to him; he doesn’t move.
How to get all endings
Just like the other characters, Shadowlord has three different endings, each rewarded by you using different responses. Depending on the ending you want, you’ll need to be careful when choosing your answers.
Love ending
A love ending isn’t too tricky for Shadowlord; all he wants is for you to beinvested in his story,feel powerful, and, of course, theoccasional flirty comment. He’s an extremely proud character, so flirting and bigging up his ego is always a good shout.
