In *Dynasty Warriors: Origins*, players will find themselves navigating a sizable world map that, while not open-world, can still become quite expansive as you progress through the main storyline. Initially, the explorable area is small and easy to manage. However, as you unlock more provinces, getting around can turn into a time-consuming task, especially with new skirmishes and requests popping up, often requiring you to backtrack across large sections of the map. Fortunately, mastering the art of fast travel in *Dynasty Warriors: Origins* can significantly streamline your journey, making it easier to tackle all the side content the game has to offer.
How to Fast Travel in Dynasty Warriors: Origins
To fast travel in *Dynasty Warriors: Origins*, you'll need to utilize the Waymarks scattered across the world map. To unlock a Waymark, simply approach it on the map and hold the X button if you're on PlayStation, or the A button if you're playing on Xbox. Once unlocked, the Waymark will become visible on your map screen, allowing you to fast travel to it at any time.
When you're not in the midst of battle, accessing the map is straightforward. You can either interact with an unlocked Waymark on the world map or pause the game and use the shoulder buttons to navigate to the Map menu. PlayStation users can save time by pressing the Dual Sense touchpad directly from the world map screen to bring up the map.
On the map screen, hovering over an unlocked Waymark will display any nearby key locations or battles. If you're searching for a specific spot, press the Square button on PlayStation or the X button on Xbox to toggle information. Then, use the Triangle button on PlayStation or the Y button on Xbox to cycle through a list of available battles and locations. Select the one you're interested in, and the cursor will move to the nearest Waymark, making your navigation efficient and hassle-free.
