Now it's also possible to summon both "at rest" heroes to directly help out on the battlefield. In previous versions of the game you'd be selecting three heroes to take into battle, and swap between them in the heat of battle in order to make special attacks and give injured heroes a chance to recover. For veterans of Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate specifically, there are a couple of new combat features that have been built into the gameplay as well. If you've ever played a Warriors game before you'll have a basic idea on how they work (run around battlefields fulfilling objectives while dicing up hundreds of enemies at a time). Seeing everything that Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate has to offer is going to chew up a lot of your time, to say the least. You'll be constantly unlocking new stuff as you play, and fact that the unlocks can be so sustained for such a long time through the lengthy adventure is a truly impressive feat.
WARRIORS OROCHI 4 TAMAMO FREE
For fans of the various franchises it's like an ultimate fan service, and for the Koei Tecmo developers, it allowed them to create fantastic environments and battles free of the need to follow historical context. for Nintendo, Warriors Orochi 3 brings together characters from Bladestorm, Samurai Warriors, Dynasty Warriors, Atelier, Dead or Alive, Trinity: Souls of Zill O'll, Warriors: Legends of Troy, and a couple of unique individuals, and throws them into an almighty brawl. These characters, all 145 of them, form the core appeal to the Warriors Orochi. But there's no one "right" team of fighters, and the game encourages players to test them all out. Personally I found myself drawn back to the combination of Joan of Arc (from Bladestorm) with the awesome reach of her spear, Kunoichi (Samurai Warriors) for her agility, and Seimei no Abe (from Japanese history and previous Warriors Orochi games) because he has a white fox that sits on his shoulder in battle and that's just plain cool. What's most impressive is that all of these characters do feel different in action, and each player will have a favoured team of three to take into combat. There's also additional story arcs with additional characters to follow which will mean something to the aforementioned history and mythology buffs, such as Hundun, Tamamo and Yinglong. The Ultimate version of Warriors Orochi adds a few new characters - Sterk from the Arland Atelier games puts in a showing (sadly, Rorona, Meruru and Totori do not and I am disappointed by this in the extreme), Kasumi from Dead or Alive joins existing cross-over cast members Ryu and Ayane (there really does need to be a dedicated Dead or Alive Warriors game), and Sophitia from Bandai Namco's Soulcalibur (!) franchise are the three that will stand out to people who aren't long-term fans of the Warriors franchises or Japanese and Chinesse folklore. And by "attention," I mean "a sword through the gut." There's a narrative that barely explains everything that's going on (there's a giant hydra-demon terrorising the world so heroes across time and space team up and jump around through time and space to fight it), but the main thing you'll need to know is that there are some big battlefields with thousands of soldiers that need your attention. Across literally dozens of stages, players form a group of fighters from a range of Koei Tecmo's popular franchises (there are 145 playable characters now), and beat up on other fighters. That's how good this game is.īeneath what is looking like an increasingly rickety engine remains a dynamic and pure entertainment Warriors game. And you know what? I'm hooked all over again. After playing the PlayStation 3 original release to death, and again spending an unhealthy amount of time in the Nintendo Wii U port, I found myself with a copy of the "HD" version of in Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate on the PlayStation 4. You wouldn't think that I'd find myself getting hooked on yet another version of Warriors Orochi 3.
