Complete walkthrough for Nioh Part 40, "The Iga Escape." Learn how to navigate the hidden village, defeat enemies, and find all collectibles in this mission.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the White Tiger boss fight, Tenkai and Fuku seal spirits, and you can say goodbye to Nekomata. You will receive the "Wandering Spirit" Bronze Trophy upon completing "The Demon of Mount Hiei."
  2. 2
    The following missions are unlocked: Twilight Mission "The Best and the Worst," Sub-Mission "The Fallen Onmyo Mages," Sub-Mission "The Missing Catalog," Sub-Mission "Greater Demon Hunting," and Sub-Mission "The Three Souls" (upon traveling to the next area).
  3. 3
    Begin "The Iga Escape" (June 1600, Hidden Village, Iga Province). The objective is to pass through the hidden village and Iga.
  4. 4
    Hit the SHRINE to the left. Note the locked door, which is a future shortcut. Expect many Ninjas; focus on fast attacks and draining their stamina.
  5. 5
    Enter the first house. In the room directly in front, destroy the doors to find a [_CORPSE_] and a Ninja. Kill the Ninja and exit.
  6. 6
    From the entrance, go LEFT to find another [_CORPSE_]. Head right to an outside courtyard. Snipe the Archer and kill the Ninja hiding behind the central rock. Note the FLOOR TRAP to the left and proceed to the back.
  7. 7
    In the back room, you'll find another Ninja, a [_CHEST_], and a locked door on the left (another shortcut). Exit the room and go left, up the stairs.
  8. 8
    Follow the path to another room and defeat the ambushing Ninja. Just outside this room is a [_CORPSE_] and a path leading back to the courtyard.
  9. 9
    Return to the room where you ambushed the Ninja. Hanzo will be waiting. Talk to him, and he'll instruct you to search for hidden walls. To his left, interact with a wall. Break all the boxes in this room to find a [_WARRIOR KODAMA_] and a [_BIG CHEST_]. Take both and go up the ladder.
  10. 10
    In the next room, defeat the Ninja to the right. Check the back room (right of the ladder) for a [_BIG CHEST_]. Go back down the ladder and unlock the door. You'll see another locked door here.
  11. 11
    Head back up and out onto the balcony. You can now drop down to the [_CORPSE_] using the door you just opened to get back up. An Amrita Fiend is present. Do not attempt to ambush it, as a hidden floor panel will drop you to the trap floor below. Engage it from the other side.
Tips
  • The White Tiger's "Tail Grab" attack can pull you into the air and slam you down. Attack its sides, not its back, to avoid this.
  • The Centipede's "Tactical Retreat" is an annoyance; it doesn't regain health but may respawn Poison Stones.
  • Be prepared for numerous Ninjas in the Iga Province area.
  • Look for hidden walls and breakable boxes, as they often conceal items or Kodama.
  • Be wary of floor traps, especially in the courtyard area.
  • "Wandering Spirit" Bronze Trophy (upon completing "The Demon of Mount Hiei").
  • Unlocked Missions: Twilight Mission "The Best and the Worst," Sub-Mission "The Fallen Onmyo Mages," Sub-Mission "The Missing Catalog," Sub-Mission "Greater Demon Hunting," Sub-Mission "The Three Souls."
