Nioh 3 All Named Shrines & Bodhisattva Statues Locations

Nioh 3 contains 156 Named Shrines & Bodhisattva Statues Locations. Finding all shrines/statues unlocks the Devotee trophy & achievement.

Shrines are the fast travel points in the open world. Bodhisattva Statues are the fast travel points exclusively found inside the 5 story-related Crucibles (dungeons). They always get marked on the map automatically from a long distance when you enter the area near them. You must go near the shrine for it to count as unlocked. Then the map icon will change from “locked “(dark green) to “unlocked” (bright green).

Shrines get marked on the map with a green shrine icon  and all Bodhisattva Statues get marked with a green statue icon . All of them are marked automatically when you find other Collectibles to reach Exploration Level 4 within a region. On the map press to view the collectible tracker for each region. You can then put a marker on them and follow the compass to locate them easily.

Nothing is missable, all areas are still explorable after the story in free-roam and all missions are replayable through the Battle Scroll at shrines.

The shrines are listed here in the in-game order of the Shrines List (press on the map screen) for easy comparison. The in-game list order is different from the chronological order in which you visit the areas.

Recommended Use: activate all shrines as you play through the game and be careful to not miss any during missions. If you end up missing a shrine, use the list here to compare against your in-game shrine list to quickly identify what’s missing. On PS5 there’s also a tracker on the trophy (via trophy list) that shows how many total you got. If all in the open world show as complete, recheck all the ones inside missions. Only the “named” shrines count for the trophy. Unnamed Shrines during Side Missions don’t count. If you are missing just one Shrine, the most likely one is the final shrine before the endboss which is on a separate map that’s only visible in the final section of the story (Final Battle of Edo map).

Note: there actually seem to be only 155 Named Shrines, even though the trophy tracker shows 156. Players who ended up with 155/156 have reported that replaying Main Mission: Escape from Hitoko Slope and activating the shrines there again unlocks the trophy.
