Scarlet Nexus has 34 side quests for each of the two protagonists’ storyline routes, meaning 34 for Yuito and 34 for Kasane. These quests are admittedly a bit unremarkable, but completionists will probably want to finish each one as they process through the game.
Quests will appear on the world map around Phase 1 or so, depending on the character. They will look like diamonds when you view the map. The game doesn’t really direct the player towards quests right away, so these can be overlooked if you are not paying attention.
Most of the quests are very straightforward, with the vast majority asking the player to defeat certain enemies in a certain way. You can always look up where to find enemies within the Library section of the main menu, so you should never be lost on where to go.
Importantly, we believe no sidequests are missable, meaning you can always save quests for later if you don’t want to tackle them right away.
The list of Quests can be found below, separated by the Phase (chapter) in which they appear. Most quests appear during the Standby portions in-between phases.

Standby Phase 8
Growing Other
Location: Musubi’s Objective: Use a Combo Vision with Luka, defeat 2 Base Paws. Reward: Drone and Controller x1 Note: This can be tricky. I just got the enemy health low, broke its legs, and then had Luka attack at the last moment. Sometimes the Brain Crush icon came up, sometimes seems to invalidate the Combo, but sometimes now.
Going to Togetsu
Location: Musubi’s Objective: During Brain Drive, defeat 5 Session Pound Reward: Full-Face Mask [White] Note: You have to kill the enemies, you can’t let them explode. I attached the “System “Double-Edged Sword” plug in, the Psychokinesis Attack Specialization plug in, used a Psy attack, then a Psy finish (top left of Brain Map), then I could Brain Crush. Basically get your Psy Attack as high as possible to be able to lower the enemy crush gauge with two throws, before they explode. You can always save the quest for later when you are stronger or have better SAS abilities to help.

Location: Suoh City Ryujin Ward Objective: While SAS pyrokinesis is active, defeat 4 Fuel Pool. With Brain Field Super Armor, defeat 2 Buddy Ruddy Reward: Phantom Art: Monkey Note: ‘Brain Field Super Armor’ seems to be a mistranslation, or at least I had no idea what it was referring to.
