Kevin at Press Start Australia writes: "Dynasty Warriors, now up to ‘8’ (excluding spin offs and side sequels) isn’t going to win over anyone that hasn’t been interested in the series before, but it’s a relatively solid sequel. While the relatively high price tag in Australia (currently $80-85 in most popular retail stores) isn’t justified, the core gameplay is solid and the small but significant tweaks to the formula bode well and hopefully this is a sign that the next iteration could signify actual change for the next generation."
Dynasty Warriors has been around for two decades and has more than enough games to prove it.
New Gamer Nation:
My introduction to the Dynasty Warriors series, well-known for its familiar hack-n-slash, one man versus army combat, occurred with one of the games spin-off titles, Samurai Warriors 4-2, a game that I recently played and thoroughly enjoyed due to the easy to get into mechanics and over the top kinetic combat and wonderful visual presentation on PS4. It made me an instant fan of the series and made me interested in seeking out future releases as well as other games in the genre. I really want to seek out and play the Zelda and Dragon Quest Warriors-like games now.
