Dynasty Warriors 8/Story Mode

Story Mode in Dynasty Warriors 8 adapts concepts from Dynasty Warriors 4's Musou Mode system. When certain conditions are met, players can unlock bonus stages within the main story branch, save a character from certain death, or gain a tactical advantage. These changes culminate in hypothetical story routes for the Three Kingdoms and Jin.

Other characters have unique stories again, and their stages can be unlocked by clearing maps from other factions. They do not have any conditions that affect one another and are mostly non-historical. The Xtreme Legends expansion features an exclusive Story Mode for Lu Bu and his faction.

Each stage has a limited character selection (four being the maximum). Story Mode is two player friendly. Bolded names in the charts label the location of a character's fifth EX weapon while those highlighted in red denote their sixth EX weapon.

In each story mode there is either a single or a group of recurring soldier/s that appear within each kingdom's camp. In Wei's camps, there is a soldier that often begins with phrases like "Hey, listen to this" or "Let me tell you something about Lord Cao Cao" before proceeding to talk about Cao Cao's actions or character. In Wu camps, there is a man who often speaks regarding Sun Quan and his relationship with Lianshi. In Shu camps, a soldier will always begin statements with "Hey! It's me!", and his position will either be shared or given to his son. In Jin camps, there will be a soldier who talks about Sima Zhao's growing maturity and his relationships with family and friends. In Lu Bu's storyline, there will be a soldier who often speaks about his personal life and loyalty towards the general, and will almost always begin his statements with, "Lord Lu Bu".

* used to indicate characters that only appear after achieving specific conditions.
