Here we will go over all of the Nioh 2 Awakening Region Missions. Awakening region is the first main region in the game and will see you go through some challenging opening missions letting you know you will be in for a tough time throughout Nioh 2. In total, there are 3 main missions and 6 sub missions you will need to complete in the Awakening Region. If you need any other Nioh 2 missions then check out the Nioh 2 Samurai of Legend trophy guide which will help you through every single mission in Nioh 2.
You have a lot of missions to complete throughout Nioh 2, in total there are 20 Main Missions, 53 Sub Missions, 25 Dojo Missions and 9 Twilight Missions. The Twilight missions which are much harder versions of some standard missions in the game and only appear sporadically at the rate of 2 every 24 hours (real time). All of these missions can be completed on Dream of the Samurai which will help given the difficulty of the game, if you’re struggling to complete a mission, level yourself up a few times then come back for another go.
If you have already played Nioh, you will know what to expect here, if not then get ready for a tough slog through the missions in game which vary in difficulty requiring you to do anything from sneak through a village as you work towards taking down a single target or fight through enemy filled arenas in search of back to back boss fights. Either way, we’re here to help you through the games missions as best as we can with a brief description on how to complete every mission in the region. The 9 missions you need to complete in the Awakening Region are:
The Village Of Cursed Blossoms
Main Mission, level 1.
Proceed through the mission learning the mechanics of the game if you’re new to Nioh, run pass the Gozuki as you have a very low chance of taking it down. Once pass the Yoki that spawns, go right to open the gate which will lead you back to the second shrine and is a very useful shortcut. From here, go up through the mission to the dark realm, take out the Enki then grab the Inner Shrine Key. Use the key to get through to the Mezuki boss fight. Defeat Mezuki to complete the mission.
The Beast Born Of Smoke And Flames
Main Mission, level 10.

Head through and defeat Enenra to complete the mission.
