Character customisation is also quite fun, especially as you fine-tune their appearance and what fighting style and abilities they will have. Given that, the customisation options is quite in depth in Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires, especially the edit mode which gives unprecedented access to how your army will look. I’m hoping that Koei will revolutionise their next instalment with some much needed tweaks to the gameplay.
If you’re veteran of Dynasty Warriors, you’ll notice a few tweaks here and there but overall, the gameplay is still very reminiscent of the previous games. If you’re a new comer to the series, you’ll probably be a little out of your depth when you first start playing but thankfully the developers do give enough tools and story to help these players. Another cool function is that you can marry and even have children and as the years progress, these children will grow up with some of them becoming generals in your army. The game boasts a hub which allows you to choose your strategies and missions in order to expand your empire and basically “level-up” your army and make yourself a force to be reckoned with.

There is also quite a bit of intrigue in the game as you perform all these Clandestine deals in order to keep your ruler and his people happy… unless you play as a free agent which does give you more options to change the tides of war.

Each of the characters also have their own unique combo attacks and specials that when unleashed can reign havoc on the battlefield but you do have set objectives on the battlefield to complete which is similar to capture the flag.Īpart from combat, the game does contain an RPG element plus an overarching level of strategy with turn-based decisions which help you and your ruler in unifying the lands by making alliances and improving your economy of weapons.
Needless to say, fighting thousands of enemies all at once is very insane and quite satisfying at the same time, however the more powerful bosses are the ones who give you a real challenge. The game supports 5 different levels of difficulty. Although the game can be played as a button smasher, you do need to include some strategy, especially on the higher levels. The game boasts almost 500 different weapons from standard swords to giant polearms to help maim and defeat your enemies. Once you have selected your character and chosen a faction, you are basically thrown into a violent world of soldiers and heroes as you attempt to hack and slash your way through these chaotic battlefields.
The inclusion of seasons into Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires makes the game more dynamic and does slightly influence your gaming strategy as you attempt to unify the lands. With 83 playable characters and the ability to create your own character, Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires is basically a fighting strategy game as you fight your way through a plethora of different battlefields that are also dictated by the seasons. For those new to the franchise, Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires is set in the popular world of Chinese lore, The Three Kingdoms that had superhuman heroes fighting for their own dynasties in order to master their destinies. It’s good to see the Dynasty Warriors franchise move onto next-gen consoles as developers Koei take this game onto the PlayStation 4 and XBox One (Reviewed).
