Ni no Kuni II Citizen Location Guide: Where to Find All the Citizens

Once you have reached Chapter 4 of Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom, you will be given the opportunity to found your own kingdom that Evan calls Evermore, a place where everyone can live happily ever after.

But before that can happen, you're going to need citizens first to help grow your kingdom. It can be a little challenging if you try and track them down on your own.

Fortunately, we have been doing the legwork for you. While the list isn't a complete one, we will continue to add to it until you will be able to find all 100 citizens. You should also be able to get your kingdom up to Level 4, and unlock the Recruiting Consultant trophy!

Once you've figured out how to find all these citizens, check out more of our Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom Guides:

Ni no Kuni 2 Citizens: Where to Find All the Citizens of Evermore

To make this guide a little easier to follow, I have it organized by the way they appear in the Quest almanac (therefore in chronological order to the story), with an exception: the start of the list are the story-related characters you will recruit through normal progression of the game.

I have also noted which ones are only recruitable through Swift Solutions located at the penguin icon on the mini-map. The Taskmaster situated there requires tokens awarded by completing random tasks.

Once you have traded the required number of tokens into scout for citizens, almost all of them simply ask you to speak to that particular citizen to get them to join your kingdom.

The rest can either be found as part of the normal progression of the main story, or by visiting the town noted and looking for the quest markers (white circles with blue exclamation points) dotted around the area to recruit them.

For example, in one of the quests in Capstan-upon-Hull, you're asked to guess the full name of Sin-Gul. You'll find out by talking to people, but if you want to know it right away, it's Sin-Donwaribihapi-Tstaykenmayt-Haoozbiznis-Sbinawile-Watsamata-Gul .

Before getting started on this, we recommend getting close to the end of the main story to unlock most of these side quests. If you get lost, simply set these quests as the main objective marker inside the Quest menu to find out exactly where to go!
