With so many different missions to sink your teeth into (and some far simpler than others), time sure flies by in the grind for new Descendants and weapons—all in the name of achieving your final form in The First Descendant.

Here are all missions and their objectives in The First Descendant.
The majority of Main Mission are replayable, bar any conversations you had on Albion and at outposts. Main Missions swap to Normal or Hard Missions (depending on your chosen difficulty), and remain visible inside their original region. These swap from a gold or purple color to blue, indicating their mission type and priority level. Outside of this, Battlefield Missions are typically part and parcel of the main story missions, while Void and Zone Recon Missions are optional and can include an limited-time window.
The only missions we’ve not to list below are the exclusive storylines for all 14 Descendants. You cannot access these until you’ve actually unlocked the Descendant corresponding to their unique mission. For example, Bunny’s mission is called “What kind of records are these?” and is unlocked once you make Bunny a playable Descendant (by accumulating her crafting materials or purchasing her via the Store).
Our list below is in chronological order, with all Normal/ Hard Missions available to revisit as often as you’d like as you play through The First Descendant‘s story.
This article is a work in progress and will be updated as we play through the main story.
