Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How many playable characters are there in the game?
A. There are 40 playable characters this time. Sen No Rikyuu is brand new while Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Kyougoku Maria are playable for the first time. Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin, Kasuga, Maeda Toshiie and Matsu will be joining the 32 playable characters from Sengoku Basara 4 to bring the total to 40.

Q. Will the five returning characters (Shingen, Kenshin, Kasuga, Toshiie and Matsu) have full move lists this time?
A. Yes! They have each gained two new R2 specials. The full details are on my blog and in the character section at the bottom of this guide.

Q. Will the game be released in English?
A. Probably not. At this time, nothing has been mentioned about releasing the game outside Asia.

Q. Whatever happened to Houjou Ujimasa?
A. No idea. He's mentioned in the Sengoku Basara 4 stories but he's missing from the actual game. I hope he shows up again soon.

Q. Will Nouhime/Ranmaru/Itsuki/Yoshimoto/Kennyo/Xavi be playable in Sumeragi?
A. No. Sorry :(

Q. How about Musashi?
A. He's not playable, but he appears as one of the enemies in the new Battle Roulette system.

Q. Is 'The Invincible' Naoe Kanetsugu playable?
A. Partially - he's one of the transformations in Battle Roulette.

Q. What happened to the five regional warlords from Sengoku Basara 3?
A. They're taking a break from the series and probably won't be included in the game. There's one exception so far: Amago Haruhisa appears as the mysterious warrior 'Poem Amago' in the new Battle Roulette system.

Q. Will returning characters receive new moves?
A. It's possible to unlock a new 'skill revision' move for each character through the Battle Roulette prizes. Some older moves will also be adjusted right from the start; for example, Masamune's HELL DRAGON is now usable in midair.

Q. How do I unlock the harder difficulties?
A. Beat story mode once on the highest difficulty you can to unlock the next difficulty level. The maximum difficulty level is called 'Heaven' (天).

Q. Are you going to translate all of the interface screens again?
A. Only the ones which are different to the previous game. Most screens we've seen so far are identical except the font has changed slightly, so the previous guide will still work. If you get stuck just send me a picture of the screen and I'll post a translated version.

Q. What does 'Sumeragi' mean?
A. It's an eloquent way of saying 'Emperor' and it refers to the fact that Yoshiteru is the main character this time. The kanji they chose is usually pronounced ou but they specifically chose the reading sumeragi to make it feel 'more Japanese'.

Q. What's the deal with the secret path on Motochika's Sengoku Basara 4 stage? It's driving me crazy!
A. I have lost track of the number of times people have asked this! You have to run straight to the door and skip all of the enemies because it locks 30 seconds after the start. More details here.

Q. I need help with understanding the trials in the new Naotora Women's Dojo stage.
A. This post has the translations for all of Naotora's trials. Good luck!

Q. I don't understand what the bar is for on the new Itsukushima Sanbee Occupation stage.
A. Please check this post for information about this stage.

Q. What's going on in Sakon's new Sawayama Castle: Chouhan Defense stage?
A. I posted a translation of the gambling challenge here so check it out.

Q. I don't understand what to do on Mogami Yoshiaki's Oushuu: Ushuu Annexation stage.
A. Please check this post for an explanation of Yoshiaki's new stage.

Q. I have another question about triggering a specific stage or stage objective from Sengoku Basara 4 that wasn't mentioned in your guide.
A. It's probably answered in this post (or the comments). I'll review the Sumeragi strategy guide once it's been released and add information about the new stages and mechanics here.

Q. Why do some parts of this guide have a message that the information is coming soon?
A. I can't translate material which I don't have yet. Things like trophy descriptions aren't usually released until the game is out.

Q. What's the difference between the PS3 and PS4 versions of the game?
A. The PlayStation 4 version will run in 1080p at 60fps, and sharing video and screenshots will be possible when playing. It will be compatible with Share Play and PS Vita Remote Play. The PlayStation 3 version drops to 30fps in 2 player games and has less graphical detail. SPARDA-990 posted a sample comparison shot here. Other than the anticipated visual and performance improvements, both versions of the game should be identical in terms of features.

Q. I missed the five preorder weapons, is there another way to get them after the game is released?
A. At this time, no. There are no plans to make them available as paid DLC. You can try looking for an unopened first press copy of the Asian (non-Japanese) version of the game as that came with the DLC codes in the pack, but there will be a deadline to activate the codes so don't delay!

Q. Is there any other way to get the element-changing weapons for Sakon, Katsuie and Maria which came bundled with Japanese magazines?
A. At this time, no. They're being described as magazine-exclusives. You can import the magazines (or buy them as ebooks) and redeem the codes that way if you want to guarantee that you will receive the weapons.

Q. What's the difference between the Asian and Japanese versions of the game?
A. They are probably completely identical aside from the packaging and any bonus DLC codes; Asian codes won't work on Japanese PSN. However, you can usually activate your codes on the Hong Kong PSN store then switch to an account from another region without losing access to your DLC costumes on PS3. The DLC weapons and consumable boosts from the PlayStation Store are locked to the account which downloaded them so please be careful. Please note that the Asian version of the game will still be in Japanese; there's no English or Chinese edition at this time. It's very likely to be the exact same disc as the Japanese edition.

Q. Can I use your translations in my own guide, blog, fan project or anything else?
A. Sure. I prefer it if a link to my guide is included as a reference so people know where to check for corrections and updates, but aside from that you can do whatever you want with the information here. If you make something useful for the community please let me know and I'll add it to the Links section.

Q. Something in your guide is wrong!
A. Oops, please let me know so I can fix it. I often translate late at night so errors inevitably happen.

Q. Can you translate something specific for me?
A. I work long hours but if you have a recording or screenshot showing the thing you want translated (and it's not very long), I can give it a try when I have time. If it's something simple like an in-game menu I'll add it to the guide so everyone can benefit. I won't do full scripts but check the Links section in case another fan is already working on it.

Q. Why do you spell some of the characters' names differently to the spellings used in Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes?
A. Personal preference. It's easier for me to be consistent if I use the spellings I'm more used to. If you want to use Hanbei/Hanbe/Hanbey that's fine; I just happen to use Hanbee. I spell some other words strangely because I'm not from the US.

Buying The Game

There are several editions of Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi available for purchase; the standard version and the Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi 21 Costume Hobby Box which includes download codes for all 21 tie-in DLC costumes and a small 24-page paperback artbook. Both versions of the game are available for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 so there's a total of four different listings - be careful to purchase the right one!

Note: The game is also available on the Japanese PSN. Read this post for the full details.

Firstly, the following import stores promised to be able to provide the Sumeragi ID code you need to register for the 'early reservation' bonuses so long as the order was placed before the deadline:

Standard edition (PS4): HMV, Musetto via Rakuten, NCSX, Nippon Yasan
Standard edition (PS3): HMV, Musetto via Rakuten, NCSX
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS4): HMV, Nippon Yasan
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS3): HMV

Here's a list of import-friendly online stores which are offering the game without the 'early reservation' bonuses.

Standard edition (PS4) ¥6,990: AmiAmi, Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA
Standard edition (PS3) ¥5,990: AmiAmi, Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS4) ¥11,990: AmiAmi, Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS3) ¥10,990: AmiAmi, Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA

Another option is the Asian edition of the game. This is slightly cheaper since it's aimed at regions outside Japan, and first press copies will include a code to redeem the 'early reservation' weapons on an Asian PSN account.

Standard edition (PS4): Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA
Standard edition (PS3): Play-Asia, Yesasia Global, Yesasia USA

The following Japan-only stores offered all of the early reservation bonuses and fans outside Japan can purchase from them using a proxy service.

Standard edition (PS4): Amazon Japan (Early Reservation version), AmiAmi Japan, e-Capcom, Furuhon Ichiba (Rakuten), Game TSUTAYA, Yodobashi
Standard edition (PS3): Amazon Japan (Early Reservation version), AmiAmi Japan, e-Capcom, Furuhon Ichiba, Game TSUTAYA, Yodobashi
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS4): Amazon Japan (Early Reservation version), AmiAmi Japan, e-Capcom, Furuhon Ichiba (Rakuten), Game TSUTAYA, Yodobashi
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS3): Amazon Japan (Early Reservation version), AmiAmi Japan, e-Capcom, Furuhon Ichiba (Rakuten), Game TSUTAYA, Yodobashi

Lastly, there's the Japan-only official Capcom store, e-Capcom, which is offering special bundles of the game with a choice of 41 'approximately life-sized' towels. No matter which version of the game you choose, if you register your Sumeragi ID before the deadline you will qualify for all five bonus DLC weapons and two bonus wallpapers. The store-specific wallpaper for e-Capcom is Welcome To The Wabi-Sabi Tea Party. A few importers have confirmed they'll be able to obtain these bundles too so I've added their links.

Standard edition (PS4) - limited edition with towel: e-Capcom, NCSX
Standard edition (PS3) - limited edition with towel: e-Capcom
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS4) - complete edition with towel: e-Capcom, NCSX, Nin-Nin Game
21 Costume Hobby Box edition (PS3) - complete edition with towel: e-Capcom, Nin-Nin Game

Note: There are individual listings for all 41 different versions of the complete and limited editions (the towel bundles). Please visit the main category page and find the towel bundle you want in the gallery that way.

There's a full list of Japanese retailers participating in the Sumeragi ID scheme on the official website.

Preorder Bonuses

Preordering the game early from a participating store will give you a code called a 'Sumeragi ID' which lets you unlock special in-game weapons which can change a character's usual elemental effect into something else.

There are currently no plans to make the preorder weapons available later as DLC.

The first four exclusive weapons are known as as early reservation bonuses. They come in a set as follows:

  • Date Masamune's Hyouryuu ('Ice Dragon') changes his element to ice.
  • Sanada Yukimura's Koukosou ('Light Tiger Claws') changes his element to light.
  • Ishida Mitsunari's Seitou Tomurai ('Sacred Sword: Mourning') changes his element to kan ('feeling') like Sen No Rikyuu.
  • Tokugawa Ieyasu's Mikawadanuki ('Mikawa Tanuki') changes his element to wind.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (1)

To qualify for these, you had to preorder the game from a participating store before 24th May 2015. The shop you ordered from would then send you a unique 'Sumeragi ID' code which had to be registered online before 23:59 (Japan time) on 7th June 2015.

Full step-by-step instructions for registering the Sumeragi ID can be found here.

The other bonus weapon is Rinne Genkou ('Light Of Death And Rebirth') which changes Ashikaga Yoshiteru's element to light. The code to unlock this weapon will be distributed as a first press bonus in a limited number of copies of the game. The PlayStation 4 version of the game will have the code on a sheet inside the box, while the PlayStation 3 version is printed inside the pack.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (2)


If you qualified for the early reservation rewards above, you will need to use your Sumeragi ID to register this code online to prove you did not cancel your preorder.

You can tell whether the code for Yoshiteru's weapon is inside the box by looking for the first press sticker on the front of the packaging as shown in the picture below.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (3)

An store-specific wallpaper for PCs and smartphones will be offered if you place your order early enough to qualify for Yoshiteru's weapon, depending on which shop you use for your preorder. The options are pictured (descriptions below):

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (4)

Comic SUMERAGI comes from Amazon Japan.
Azure-Crimson Duel Ink Painting Illustration is from GEO.
Piko Piko Masamune-kun ~Setouchi Monogatari~ (the one which looks like a classic handheld game) is from Game TSUTAYA.
Basara Girls Seven is from Furuhon Ichiba.
Welcome To The Wabi-Sabi Tea Party is from all other shops participating in the campaign.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (5)

Finally, people who registered their Sumeragi ID before the deadline also receive a special registration complete wallpaper showing Yoshiteru fighting Masamune (i.e. the box artwork, except Masamune is wearing his DLC costume). Even if you miss the early reservation deadline and can't obtain the weapons or store-specific bonus wallpaper, you can register your Sumeragi ID online up until 23:59 on 22nd July 2015 and still receive the registration complete wallpaper as a reward.

In short, first you preorder at a participating store (deadline: 24th May), then you register your Sumeragi ID online (deadline: 7th June), then after the game is released you claim the prizes online by re-entering your Sumeragi ID (deadline: 31st August).

Once you've received all of your product codes, the in-game items can be redeemed by entering them in the Japanese PlayStation Store as usual. Registering for a Japanese PSN account is completely free, and on the PS3 Japanese DLC can be used on a non-Japanese account so long as you've already downloaded it to your system. However, early reports indicate that you can only use DLC weapons from the same zone as your save (costumes are not affected). It might be best to start over with a Japanese account if you want that DLC.

The Asian edition of the game will also include the weapon DLC codes as a first press bonus. Since the 'early reservation' deadline has passed this might be the best option for fans who have yet to place their order.

The only physical store-exclusive bonuses are e-Capcom's towel bundles.

If you preordered on PSN, you'll receive Yoshiteru's weapon and a bundle of weapons with powerful inscriptions as a bonus. There's no way to get the four 'early reservation' weapons if you buy through PSN.

New Features

This section is for the miscellaneous gameplay changes which have been revealed so far.

  • Tag mode will be available from the start this time.
  • Weapon parameters can be increased to 3,000 for each stat by affixing a special new inscription.
  • The level cap will be increased to 999. The experience needed to level up has been adjusted, and you can choose to boost a character either 1 or 10 levels on the levelling screen.
  • Fan OneSanitarium has done some experimenting with the figures.
  • A new difficulty level has been added. 'Heaven' (天) difficulty will have more aggressive enemies with higher stats - with higher attack power, rather than having more health. Bosses can use their Basara moves, healing items appear less frequently and regular foot soldiers look visibly different to usual. The difficulty level is displayed after you choose your character, with the easiest level at the top and the hardest at the bottom.
  • It's now possible to store 40 weapons for each character.
  • You can use your stored Fortune Hammers on the reward screen before playing a stage to shuffle the rewards. Simply press Square to use a hammer - but be careful, as you can make the prizes worse if your luck is bad.
  • There's a new mechanic called Battle Roulette which can be toggled from the stage select screen. Please see the dedicated section later in this guide for more details.
  • There's a new type of green box called a Revolution chest which can affect the result of Battle Roulette.
  • Every character will have access to one additional move called a 'skill revision' which can be unlocked through the Tenka Medal shop. The default command for the skill revision is L1 + Square.
  • Many characters can now use their moves in the air. Confirmed aerial moves are Shikanosuke's Megurimawaru Seishun, Oichi's Kizameku No Kizu, Masamune's HELL DRAGON, Keiji's Oshi No Itte, Hisahide's Shouka, Motochika's Shibaku, Motonari's Hajikite: Heki and Tsuruhime's Nayuta Issen.
  • Save data from Sengoku Basara 4 can be imported into Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi (the details are here and a translated walkthrough can be found here).

Most of the menus are identical to those in Sengoku Basara 4 with some cosmetic changes. Play Books are all combined in one window now (accessed with R1 on the march screen) and L1 is used for the Tenka Medal shop.

The new mode select screen looks like this. Please note that my screenshot may be incomplete; the full list of modes has not been formally confirmed.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (6)

Once you enter one of the two game modes, you'll see the character selection screen as follows.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (7)

If you're playing in the main Sengoku Creation: Extreme mode, the first prompt which will appear upon selecting your character is this one.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (8)

If you want to pick your route, it's just a simple menu. As with Sengoku Basara 4, you can't pick the Creation route with this option, only the Drama/Anime routes.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (9)

You'll then be asked to pick your difficulty. There are five difficulty levels in the game and they're arranged with the easiest one at the top of the list. You need to clear the story once on the hardest difficulties to unlock the harder ones. The final difficulty level is called Heaven (天).

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (10)

One other undocumented new feature is that Fortune Hammers can now be used on the reward screen before you play a stage. Doing this refreshes all of the rewards, either making them significantly better or poor depending on your luck. You can see the number of Fortune Hammers you have left along with the command (Square) in the top right of the reward screen.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (11)

There's also an option in the game's settings to have the camera dynamically focus on your moves. You can set it to 'off' to have the camera stay in its usual position. I've called it 'move-based camera' in the picture below.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (12)

The controller settings have also been tidied up a little in the new interface. I've annotated screenshots of both settings screens to show exactly what you can adjust.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (13)


Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (14)

Please send me a screenshot or photograph if there are any other menus which need translating.

Stories

There will be 32 new stories included in the game as well as all of the stories from Sengoku Basara 4 (listed in the previous guide) for a total of 89 individual stories. I've listed the confirmed new stories for each character in the profiles section below.

Elements

There are two new elements this time to accompany the usual fire, ice, thunder, wind, light and darkness. Rikyuu's element is called 'feeling' while Yoshiteru's element is 'quake'.

Kan 'feeling': When this element is triggered, soldiers will either become sluggish and lose their will to attack or they'll start attacking both allies and enemies indiscriminately.
Shin 'quake': This element includes effects such as being able to split the earth for short range attacks, and causing the ground to shake to affect a wide area.

In addition, Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi will be the first game in the series where you can equip weapons which alter a character's usual element. Five of these special weapons will be allocated as exclusive preorder bonuses while another three are available through DLC codes bundled with various gaming magazines.

Battle Roulette

There's a new optional system called Battle Roulette. When you attack a 'roulette camp' or 'roulette soldier', a large roulette wheel appears at the top of the screen. There are four possible outcomes when the wheel stops spinning.

  • Red (Tenka): Tenka Medals appear, sometimes accompanied by Medal Soldiers. If 'Poem Amago' (Amago Haruhisa) appears instead, hit him when he pops up out of the ground to receive more Tenka Medals. A pink icon with a picture of his face will show his current location.
  • Black (Transform): The player changes into another character for 45 seconds and gains access to their movelist.
    • Naoe Kanetsugu can kill enemies in one hit, but he disappears when he takes damage.

      • R1: Spinning Bomb Spray
      • L1: Guard
  • Skull (Punishment From Heaven): Something dangerous happens, such as bombs falling from the sky, an intrusion from Miyamoto Musashi or Xavist angels stunning the player.

Green 'Revolution' chests can appear on the battlefield when Battle Roulette is switched on. These increase the chance of a particular result the next time you trigger the roulette.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (15)

The message which appears after opening a Revolution chest is in Japanese, so you'll need to learn the Japanese words for each roulette outcome if you want to understand it. It will look like the example below (in the picture, you can see 'Transform' is highlighted in the middle of the message).

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (16)

You can see whether Battle Roulette is available on the stage selection screen as shown below and it can be toggled on/off with R2 in some modes. Check the Tenka Medals part of this guide below for a list of rewards.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (17)


Tenka Medals

Tenka Medals are an in-game currency earned from the Battle Roulette system. The name is a pun; it's written 'Heavenly Coin Medals' but pronounced the same as 'Seize-The-Nation Medals'. You can exchange your medals for 167 different rewards.

The reward categories are Costume (purple), Weapon (orange), Technique (blue) and Speech (yellow). Each character has a new 'skill revision' move which can be activated with L1 + Square after it has been purchased. I've listed the known skill revisions in the character profiles at the bottom of this guide. All forty characters will each have at least one extra costume to unlock through the Tenka Medal reward system.

The Tenka Medal shop is accessed by pressing L1 on the stage selection screen.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (18)

The way that the personal and limit-breaking inscriptions work is that you purchase them through the Tenka Medal reward shop. Each comes pre-attached to a low level weapon - in Yoshihiro's case, his personal inscription has been shown attached to Kahou: Raijinken which is traditionally his second weapon.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (19)

It's easy to spot which inscriptions are the personal ones and which break your weapon limits; every personal inscription has a name which is two Japanese characters long, while Open is just one.

Once you buy a reward from the Tenka Medal shop, you see the following screen. For the inscriptions, you're shown instructions for attaching it to a weapon (it's the same as in Sengoku Basara 4).

It's not possible to merge personal inscriptions together, or set more than one on the same weapon. You can move them onto different weapons as normal using Weapon Fusion.

Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi Reference Materials (20)

Here are all of the prizes in the game, sorted by the order they appear in the Tenka Medal shop. Tachibana Muneshige is the only character without at least one Tenka Medal costume.

DLC (Downloadable Content)

This works similarly to the way it did in Sengoku Basara 4. You need a Japanese (or Asian) PSN account to purchase and download the DLC costumes, but once they're stored on your console you can access them with any user account on the system; it doesn't matter which PSN region your usual account is associated with. However, the weapon and consumable 'boost' DLC seems to be locked to the account you originally used to activate it on PSN so fans with a lot of DLC may prefer to switch to using a Japanese or Asian account and start over. Those who purchased music or costumes for Sengoku Basara 4 will have to download them again from PSN to use them in Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi at no cost. Boost DLC from Sengoku Basara 4 such as money or experience packs will not work in Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi, but the old costumes and music packs can be used in the new game so long as you have paid for them.

Six major collaborations

Six major tie-ins with other brands were promoted at launch, offering 21 DLC crossover costumes in total. The first tie-in was four costumes from Bandai-Namco's Tales Of Zestiria, the second was a special outfit for Ieyasu based on singer T.M.Revolution, the third was four costumes based on wrestlers from New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), the fourth was four costumes based on Biohazard (Resident Evil), the fifth was four costumes from Street Fighter IV and the last was four costumes from the Monster Hunter series.

All of the tie-in costumes were included as part of the game's special edition box and they're also available as paid DLC on PlayStation Network.

Additional DLC has been promised for the future. Here's the list of DLC content which has been announced so far:

Inscriptions

All of the Inscriptions from Sengoku Basara 4 will be available as well as a 'personal' inscription and an 'open' inscription for each character to allow them to break the weapon upgrade limits. I've collected the descriptions of the personal inscriptions below as these are unique for each character. Please see the Tenka Medals section for details about purchasing these rewards in-game.

It's easy to tell the new ones apart because the 'open' inscription always has a name which is one character long, whereas the personal inscriptions have two Japanese characters in their name. These special inscriptions cannot be overwritten or stacked, though you can move them to other weapons after buying them.

After attaching the 'open' inscription to the weapon you want to upgrade beyond its limits, you need to raise all of the stats on the weapon to their highest value then continue levelling it up with tamahagane steel.

TypeNameTranslationEffectCharacter
Special (Blue Ring)OpenAllows a weapon's Rarity and parameters to be increased further. Increasing the Rarity past its limit does not make it possible to add even more inscriptions to the weapon.

If you need the bonus conditions for the Sengoku Basara 4 stages and one-on-one fights, click here. Here are the new ones:

Note 1: As pointed out by VegaManX4 in the comments, Matabee's Tunnel Reunion/Tunnels of Doubt stage is a little different to the others; even though it's not one of the full stages you can play in Free Battle mode it has its own unique bonus conditions and is treated as a full stage in certain circumstances. Here's a special table showing the bonuses you can earn:


StageHidden Bonus ObjectivePoints

Tunnel Reunion

Defeat Gotou Matabee using Kanbee's first R2 special move Anagura Otoshi ('Underground Cellar Drop')1,000
Defeat more than 200 enemies1,000

Tunnels of Doubt

Defeat Gotou Matabee using Mitsunari's second R2 special move Zanshu ('Decapitation')1,000
Defeat more than 200 enemies1,000

Note 2: The Tunnel Reunion version is the one from Kanbee's drama route, while Tunnels of Doubt appears in Mitsunari's anime route. If you want to see the scene where the stage first appears, you need to play those routes from the beginning; skipping straight to the drama/anime route from the selection screen won't play the scene.

Mini FAQ

Q. How do I fight Kasuga or Sasuke on Battle of Kawanakajima: Intrusion?
A. Take all of the orange (Uesugi) or red (Takeda) bases before Yukimura finishes his dash to change the flow of the battle. Once you do this, the stage will end as soon as you kill the enemy commander whose bases you took and you'll fight their retainer along the way.

Q. I don't understand what the bar is for on the new Itsukushima Sanbee Occupation stage.
A. Please check this post for information about this stage.

Q. I need help with understanding the trials in the new Naotora Women's Dojo stage.
A. This post has the translations for all of Naotora's trials. The 25 'Man' kanji referred to in the objective description are the points she gives you during the trials; you need to obtain more than 25 (and keep them) to qualify for the bonus objective. Good luck!

Q. I don't understand what to do on Mogami Yoshiaki's Oushuu: Ushuu Annexation stage.
A. Please check this post for an explanation of Yoshiaki's new stage.

Q. What's going on in Sakon's new Sawayama Castle: Chouhan Defense stage?
A. I posted a translation of the gambling challenge here so check it out. It's easy to win all of the dice challenges by knocking Sakon out right before taking each base; it will give you enough time to hit the dice to change the result before he wakes up and declares the winner. The first bonus objective requires that you beat Hideaki and Tenkai up rather than racing them to 'collect' food.

Q. There's something else I don't understand about the new stages.
A. Zexx has created a series of tutorial videos which might help!

Q. I can't find one of the new stages.
A. Playing through all of the drama and anime routes should guarantee that you see them as they're all placed in specific routes. If you want to see your favourite stage more often in normal play, here's the trigger information from the game's official strategy guide:
