Just like a lot of the previous Dynasty Warriors games, Dynasty Warriors: Origins packs in an awful lot of content, both when it comes to the game’s main campaign and the ridiculous amount of side content that it has to offer. The former is broken up into five chapters, each of which has players taking part in a series of epic battles inspired by the ones discussed in Luo Guanzhong’s Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Which Difficulty Setting Should You Choose in Dynasty Warriors Origins?
Those unsure about which difficulty setting to choose in Dynasty Warriors: Origins will need to consider the pros and cons of each of the four modes.
Completing every battle in Dynasty Warriors: Origins will require multiple playthroughs, as the ones that players gain access to are determined by the choices that they make. As they begin to progress a little, they’ll also be able to take on optional side missions, although, much like the main story battles, the missions that they’ll be able to complete are based on the faction that they choose to side with.
After completing the game, players will gain the ability to restart the story from various points, which can make completing every battle and mission in Dynasty Warriors: Origins significantly easier.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins Chapter List (All Main Story Battles)
There are 70 main story battles in Dynasty Warriors: Origins (59 unique battles), although players will only need to complete 34 of these as part of a standard playthrough. This is because the story begins to branch out a little during Chapter 3, with players forced to swear their allegiance to one of the era’s three great generals around the end of the chapter. It’s worth noting that there’s still quite a bit of overlap during the game’s last few chapters, although, players will often find that their objectives during a particular battle are vastly different depending on which force they’re fighting alongside.

All Missions in Dynasty Warriors: Origins
In addition to the 70 main story battles, players will be able to take part in 48 optional Dynasty Warriors: Origins missions. Sadly, there’s a lot of repetition here and rewards for missions that have variations for each faction can only be claimed once, although those hoping to unlock the Supreme Competence Trophy / Achievement will need to complete them nonetheless. The only saving grace is that most of the duplicate missions are relatively short, allowing players to breeze through them at a fairly decent pace once.
