Every main mission in Dynasty Warriors: Origins.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins, like the numerous previous titles in the series, is based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Novel, and is set during the fall of the Han Dynasty in China.

It is a Musou game. If you’re not familiar with the genre, basically, each mission drops you into a massive battlefield where you’ll have to hack and slash your way through larges hordes of enemies.

Moreover, Dynasty Warriors: Origins features a semi-linear campaign, that is, you can choose the order of which battles you partakes in. Furthermore, there are branching options in the main story, where you’ll have to choose between three kingdoms.

The story, like the name suggests, sees the beginning of the fabled Three Kingdoms period, and is centered around the Golden Turban Rebellion. You play as a nameless hero known as “The Wanderer” who gets amnesia at the beginning of the game.

If you only focus on the main story, Dynasty Warriors: Origins should take you anywhere between 25-30 hours to complete.

Below, we’ve listed each main story mission, arranged chronologically.
