1) Eastern Courtyard – First Samurai Daisho

The first Samurai Daisho guards the large courtyard on the eastern side of Koriyama Castle. He spends a lot of time moving close to the castle walls, so it is easy to ambush him. A rooftop perch or an air assassination at the right time is the best option to eliminate him.


2) Northwestern Tower – Second Samurai Daisho

The second Samurai Daisho is stationed inside the northwestern tower, a highly fortified area filled with guards. Luring him outside will provide an easier opportunity for an assassination without raising suspicion.


3) Northwestern Tower – Third Samurai Daisho

The third Samurai Daisho is also inside the northwestern tower, making this section particularly dangerous. If you’ve already taken down the second Daisho, it’s best to strike from the shadows before reinforcements arrive.


4) Southern Building – Fourth Samurai Daisho

The fourth Samurai Daisho guards the southern building of Koriyama Castle. He is most often accompanied by a guard, so it's best to take out his companion first before singling him out for a swift execution.


Unlocking the Legendary Chest in Koriyama Castle

1) Legendary Chest location

The Legendary Chest is positioned on the Northwestern Tower's top floor. After all four Samurai Daisho have been destroyed, the chest will open, providing strong rewards.


2) Koriyama Castle Kura key locations

  • First Kura key: Located in the Retainer's Quarters on the north side of the castle. Follow the outer perimeter of the castle to find this building.
