How to Unlock Devil Trigger Type Soul Guide
The Devil Trigger has officially landed in Type Soul, and surprisingly, unlocking it isn’t as difficult as players originally thought. This transformation replaces your sub-mode (like Visor or Lats), and while it does take a few steps to get, it’s manageable for any dedicated player. Whether you’re a Shinigami, Quincy, or Arrancar, this guide will help walk you through the full process. Also check out our Type Soul Codes and Type Soul Shikai Tier List.
Requirements to Unlock Devil Trigger
Before starting, make sure you meet these basic requirements:
- Have Yamato in your inventory or equipped.
- 60 Speed Stat is required to activate Devil Trigger.
- Can be obtained by any race (Shinigami, Quincy, Arrancar).
Step-by-Step Guide to Unlocking Devil Trigger
1. Get Yamato
You’ll need the Yamato weapon for this process. It must either be equipped or in your inventory. This is a core requirement and you cannot begin the quest without it.
2. Head to the Ring Tree in Hell
Once you have Yamato:
- Enter Hell and progress through the layers until you reach the Third Ring.
- If you’re unsure how to access or navigate Hell, there are video guides available showing each layer and how to unlock paths.
3. Find the Yin NPC
After reaching the Third Ring:
- Press the comma ( , ) key to open the map.
- Head toward the Yin NPC.
- After talking with Yin, he’ll mention a chair. Finish the dialogue.
4. Enter the Tornado to Reach the Chair
- Locate one of the blue tornadoes nearby.
- Enter the tornado, which will transport you to a new area.
- In this area, find and interact with the mysterious chair.
5. Boss Fight: Virgil

- Interacting with the chair will begin a boss fight against Virgil.
- Virgil’s attacks do high damage, but they’re generally easy to dodge.
- At 50% HP, Virgil will enter his own Devil Trigger state.
- Defeat him to trigger a cutscene.
6. Unlock Devil Trigger
- After the cutscene where your character clashes with Virgil, your Devil Trigger will be unlocked.
- This transformation becomes available as a sub-mode replacement moving forward.
The Devil Trigger form, especially for Shinigami, includes a flashy crit move called Judgement Cut. It’s sleek, stylish, and fits well with the Yamato aesthetic. While it looks great, it’s expected that other races like Arrancar may have unique Devil Trigger models or crits in the future—though this hasn’t been confirmed yet.
Unlocking Devil Trigger in Type Soul is more about knowing where to go than grinding endlessly. As long as you meet the base requirements and follow the questline through Hell, you’ll have your transformation ready in no time. With solid visuals and a powerful crit move, this is one sub-mode that’s worth chasing.
Keep an eye out for future updates that may add race-specific styles or more Devil Trigger abilities. And if you’re stuck on any part of the quest, make sure to check community resources or guides for additional help.
