NTE All Side Quest Locations

NTE (Neverness to Everness) contains 21 Side Quests in version 1.00 at launch. First, you’ll want to unfog the map by activating the 5 Wertheimer Towers. Then the Side Missions get marked by a blue exclamation point (“!”) on the map.

Most of them are available after Prologue 2: Good Business, Better Treasure. Some Side Quests will only appear as follow-ups after completing another Side Quest.

You can keep track of which ones you still need by pressing L3 in the map screen (the icon in the top left) to open the collectible menu. Then press R2 to switch between the 5 city districts and click on the “Side” category. It will show you a list of all side quests in the district. When you click on the quest name it automatically scrolls to it on the map.

It’s worth noting that the quest names on the map and collectible menu are different from what it will show in the quest menu after accepting the quest. Both names will be included here so you can easily find the quest under either name. The unlock requirement is listed in brackets. On the map the white cursor shows the spot. Click the linked quests for full walkthroughs.
