Warriors Orochi 3/Story Mode

Unlike in previous titles, the Story Mode of Warriors Orochi 3 follows the Shin Sangoku Musou Multi Raid 2 format in which faction stories are completely omitted in favor of a singular main story scenario told in a total of four chapter segments. Stages are divided into two types: main story battles that are connected with one another chronologically (visually represented by a square on the stage list) and side battles that mostly exist outside the story branch (symbolized by a circle).

Like Dynasty Warriors 4, additional stages and characters become available by completing various scenarios presented within each chapter. Though entirely optional, some characters can only be recruited by unlocking alternate versions of certain missions. Known as redux stages, these are the results of changing events in other battles. Similar to Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3, new side missions can also be unlocked based on the friendship ratings between characters. Once relationships are established, players can talk to affiliated characters within town to open these special missions.

Each stage also provides a recommended team for players to use. However, this feature has no major impact on the plot nor does it prevent any other character from being selected as part of the group. Before battle, players may choose to complete an objective requested by characters outside their attack team. Should they succeed, the party's bond with that character will increase. The opposite occurs if the objective is not met.

Depending on the player's progress within each chapter, they can obtain three endings for the main story: Normal, Good, and True. The amount of stages the player unlocks and completes per chapter determines the type of ending they receive. The game also features downloadable stages which have a separate tab of their own.
