Destiny Mode was a mode introduced and solely used in Dynasty Warriors 5: Xtreme Legends. It essentially is an RPG where the player creates his or her own original officer, and play as them soldier in one of the Three Kingdoms. Players start off as a low-ranked Private under one of the playable officers, but can rise up through the army ladder through achievements displayed in battle. Destiny mode consists of eight stages, and always starts out during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
