In Dynasty Warriors: Origins, the game's world map, while not open-world, expands as players progress through the main storyline, unlocking more provinces. Initially, the map area is quite manageable, allowing easy navigation. However, as more regions become accessible and new skirmishes and requests unlock, traversing the map can become a time-consuming task, often requiring players to backtrack over large areas. Fortunately, mastering fast travel in Dynasty Warriors: Origins can significantly streamline this process, especially for those looking to complete all the side content available.
How to Fast Travel in Dynasty Warriors: Origins
To fast travel in Dynasty Warriors: Origins, players need to access the Map screen and use the Waymarks scattered across the world map. To unlock a Waymark, players must approach it on the world map and press and hold the X button on PlayStation or the A button on Xbox. Once a Waymark is unlocked, it becomes available on the map screen for fast travel at any time.
To initiate fast travel, players can access the map by interacting with an unlocked Waymark directly on the world map or by pausing the game and using the shoulder buttons to navigate to the Map menu. On PlayStation, players can quickly access the map by pressing the DualSense touchpad while on the world map, saving precious seconds.
On the map screen, hovering over an unlocked Waymark will display nearby key locations or battles. To find a specific battle or location, players can press the Square button on PlayStation or the X button on Xbox to toggle information. They can then use the Triangle button on PlayStation or the Y button on Xbox to cycle through a list of available battles and locations, selecting the desired one to move the cursor to the nearest Waymark for fast travel.
