Although players cannot witness the franchise’s known individual ones,Dynasty Warriors Originsfeatures a total of six unlockable endings, with each faction having both a regular and a true one.
But contrary to the normal endings, which can be unlocked by simply choosing a hero and seeing their respective stories through, getting the true conclusions to each tale will demand a lot more legwork. Here’s how to unlock the true endings for the Wei (Cao Cao), Shu (Liu Bei), and Wu (Sun Jian) factions inDynasty Warriors Origins.
How to unlock the Shu true ending (Liu Bei)
After selecting Liu Bei as your chosen hero during the game’s third chapter, you will be able to unlock the true ending for the Shu faction inDW Originsby defeating Cao Cao at the Battle of Changban and then completing the story as you see fit. The battle will take place a the start of the fifth chapter and you can jump right to it by heading to Story if on the post-game. To recap, here’s how to unlock the true ending for the Shu faction inDynasty Warriors Origins:
If you are planning on trying for the ending on your first playthrough, it is very likely that you won’t have the DPS needed to defeat Cao Cao and his personal army. You will also need to complete the task fast, as just like you will be gunning for their commander, Liu Bei will be public enemy number one for the opposing faction.
How to unlock the Wei true ending in Dynasty Warriors Origins (Cao Cao)
A huge step up from the difficulty posed by the Shu route, you may unlock the True Ending for the Wei faction inDynasty Warriors Originsby completing the story after making sure Dian Wei survived his last stand on the Battle of Wan Castle in Chapter 3, Guo Jia stayed alive after the Battle at Mt. Bailang in Chapter 5, and Huang Gai’s plan failed at the Battle of Chibi. Here’s how to complete all of the above:
How to unlock the Wu true ending in Dynasty Warriors Origins (Sun Jian)
You can unlock the Wu True Ending inDW Originsby completing the story after saving Sun Jian during the Battle of Xiangyang in Chapter 3 and Sun Ce during the Suppression of Wu in Chapter 4. You can check out how to do both below. Like with the Wei one, unlocking the true Wu ending during a first playthrough is considered by many, myself included, to be impossible, as you won’t have 1/10 of the damage needed to defeat Phantom Zhang Jiao in time.
