Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade

PS4 / PS5

Yasha tracks its three protagonists separately. Use early runs to complete their arcs and learn their weapons, then return for Hell Scrolls, talismans and exact combat moves. A weapon stopping at level 3 is not an error: Legendary Weapon Fragments belong to the route after the character’s arc.

Base PS4 and PS5 lists, covering the Shigure, Sara and Taketora routes.

  • Required difficulty: Hell Scrolls through layer 9 and a four-Forbidden-Talisman clear are required.
  • Missable trophies: Runs are repeatable. Boss conditions need to be completed in the relevant fight.
  • Multiplayer: None: arcs and trials are single-player.
  • PlayStation release: 2025-05-14

Complete Shigure, Sara and Taketora’s arcs

Give Shigure two katanas with different jobs, learn Sara’s dual-blade combos and practise Taketora’s bow without neglecting melee. Complete each arc before spending everything on one build. Between attempts, use Blade Mound to invest at least one level in every talent.

  • Check all three arc trophies and the talent menu.

Unlock Legendary Fragments past weapon level 3

After an arc, talk to the Miko at the training ground for Inferno Scrolls. Set modifiers and check the displayed Legendary Fragment drop chance before leaving. Return to the smith with the required materials. Max one weapon in each category and keep a separate list of weapons still to collect.

  • Check the smith and fragment requirements before repeating a high-layer trial.

Work up from three to nine layers

Start with three-layer clears, then try six and nine. Select modifiers your build can handle and check the layer in the summary; weapon level is not Scroll layer. Use a suitable ramen at rest areas. After encounters, upgrade gems on the same weapon if you are working on The Ultimate Memory.

  • Verify a nine-layer clear and three maxed gems on one weapon.

Take the Forbidden option at shrines

When a Neko Shrine offers the choice, distinguish the blessing from the Forbidden option. For The Challenger, gather four of the latter and clear the run instead of always taking a benefit without a drawback. Visit shrines on collection runs too; meeting all cat gods is separate, as is unlocking all ramen toppings.

  • Check for four Forbidden Talismans before the final boss.

Set up the right weapon and move for each boss

For Graduation, equip Nameless before Sword Master Donyo. For There’s a Flaw!, also land the required parry and finish the fight. Against Yasha of the Hundred Blades, leave enough health for a Mystic Artes finish instead of ending with a normal combo. For Fluffy, take Taketora back to Komainu and use melee rather than arrows.

  • Read the boss condition before starting the attempt.

Frequently asked questions

Why won’t the smith go beyond level 3?

Finish the character’s arc and unlock Inferno Scrolls with the Miko. Later trials give access to the required Legendary Weapon Fragments.

Must I pick every talisman on each run?

No. Dedicate one clear to four Forbidden Talismans. Use bonuses that suit your build on story and Scroll attempts.

Does the route differ between PS4 and PS5?

The archived requirements match. If you run the PS4 version on PS5, check the PS4 list, which is separate from the native PS5 version.
