Location of the Iron Chuta bounty

The Iron Chuta bounty takes place primarily across the Tokachi Range, one of the rugged and snow-laden regions in Ghost of Yotei. You’ll start at Huranui’s Rest Inn, a modest settlement serving as a hub for bounty postings and side tales.

From there, your journey leads eastward into the Moiwa Grotto, a misty cavern area surrounded by dense woodland and patrolled by stray dogs. After rescuing a wounded ronin who reveals Chuta’s trail, the pursuit continues toward the Niikappu River—a frozen waterway flanked by towering cliffs.

Steps to Complete the Iron Chuta Bounty

Step 1

Begin by completing the Desperate Remedy side tale. This is a prerequisite for unlocking the Iron Chuta bounty, so you won’t find it on the bounty board until this quest is finished.

Step 2

Once Desperate Remedy is complete, travel to Huranui’s Rest Inn in the Tokachi Range. Approach the bounty board outside the inn and select the “Iron Chuta” bounty from the available list.

Step 3

Follow your guiding wind or map marker to Moiwa Grotto, located east of the inn. The area is misty and crawling with wild dogs, so stay alert as you make your way inside.

Step 4

At the grotto, you’ll find a wounded ronin being attacked by dogs. Defeat the animals and speak to the injured ronin afterward. He will reveal that Iron Chuta has been spotted near the Niikappu River.

Step 5

Iron Chuta will appear shortly after you investigate the corpse. Prepare for a one-on-one duel. His fighting style combines heavy attacks with delayed swings, so parry with precision and look for counter openings.

Step 6

Once Iron Chuta is defeated, the bounty will automatically register as complete. Optionally, you can return to Kojiro, the bounty broker at Huranui’s Rest Inn, to confirm completion and collect your full reward.
