'''Free Mode''' is a mode in several ''Warriors'' titles that allows characters to be leveled up in stages not found during their [[Musou Mode|personal story]]. Since it generally ignores story related cutscenes, it is a convenient method for players to survey a stage and build up weaker characters. In most games, it is also a good way to search for weapons, additional bodyguards, and unique items. For select characters, it may also trigger unique character interactions not usually seen in other modes.

Free Mode is a mode in several Warriors titles that allows characters to be leveled up in stages not found during their personal story. Since it generally ignores story related cutscenes, it is a convenient method for players to survey a stage and build up weaker characters. In most games, it is also a good way to search for weapons, additional bodyguards, and unique items. For select characters, it may also trigger unique character interactions not usually seen in other modes.

In Dynasty Warriors 3 and Dynasty Warriors 6, this mode is the only way to level characters without Musou Modes. A similar instance also occurs for Samurai Warriors 2 and Samurai Warriors 3 for several characters, though they can alternatively level up in the games' alternate battle modes. The new characters in Warriors Orochi Z are mainly featured in their Dream Modes and are not present during the series's main story. Characters that fall into this category are usually dubbed "Free Mode characters". This move is met with mixed impressions especially with the fans who desire to experience more facets of the game's stories.
