Time to explore

Nioh 3 has changed its approach when it comes to exploration, with most of the zones being open-field. This means that players will have to look far and wide to gather every Kodama, Chijinko, or anything else that’s hiding in one of the many eras you’ll visit. Speaking of which, the first zone you’ll get to play in Nioh 3 is The Warring States Era, and we’ve made a complete list of all collectibles that you can find.
(Note: This guide is a work in progress as we add images of the other areas.)
All Tenryu River Collectibles in Nioh 3
There are a total of 35 collectibles for this area, but we will be listing the hardest ones to find, and those that contribute the most for the exploration level, mainly Kodama, Chijinko, Wraiths, etc. Before diving into the exact locations, here’s the checklist:
- Kodama x4
- Scampusses x1
- Six Jizo Statues x2
- Lesser Crucibles x1
- Crucible Spikes x1
- Enemy Bases x2
- Crucible Wraiths x1
Tenryu River Kodama Locations

- On the other side of the beach, where you initially spawned.

- At the camp that is protecting the border to the next area.
- Inside a locked building in the village, you must enter through the roof.
Tenryu River Scampusses Location

- Close to the initial spawn. Following the Scampuss will also lead you to the first Kodama.
