Feb. 2026
One of my absolute favorite games of all time, made by one of my favorite game companies W-Force, they make utter masterpieces, and the fact that they improved on everything with this game is just fantastic. The later installments left MUCH to be desired, but this one is PEAK. PEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAK!! Steam can't keep track of the hundreds of hours I played of this game on the PS4, and I STILL didn't unlock everything! Maybe not even half! I didn't level all the characters, there's just so so much awesome packed in here! The only real gripe I have is that the balance of the game is nonexistent. If you do certain combinations of weapons/items/abilities, you're are permanently immortal. That is not fun at all, so I try to limit myself. True Triple Musou is one of the most annoying culprits, and has saved me out of situations I 100% should have died in. I blow it before I fight the big clusters of officers because it's just so broken. Wish I never knew it existed honestly AND that we got materials another way. Infinite Musou, Infinite hp gain, FULL HP gain from just Lianshi's special...it's just utterly and completely imbalanced beyond belief. But, without the broken aspects, this game is amazing! Edit: After playing some more, I'm finding more and more really horrible bugs that absolutely ruin some characters. For example, Magoichi's X button spam is locked in one direction after he starts shooting, that's so bad, and his Y button spam (which already sucks) is bugged: the third and final shot goes straight up into the air and hits nothing. There are other characters with horrendous bugs like this, like swinging right next to an enemy and the hits don't land unless you do it a little further away...yet in the playstation version they'd hit just fine.

If there was a single reason for me to play Warriors Orochi 3 over any other Musou, aside from truckload of characters, fire soundtrack with some from previous games included, exploits that allow you to negate any possible annoyances you could have, the game overall being a complete package with no extra purchases..... it'd be The Gauntlet. The freedom to pick your warriors and cause mayhem without worries about protecting territories, commanders or whoever dares to interrupt your chaos, the stage getting progressively harder the longer you're in it and finishing the stage whenever you're satisfied, is something that other Musou games for some reasons never brought back. I cannot fathom how addicting this is. Sure maybe newer games have more refined combat and better story but this to me is irreplaceable. If you ever were interested in trying one of these games and don't mind it being the PS3 era, I wholeheartedly recommend WO3.

The orochi and dynasty warrior games are king of button mashing. Orochi 3 is the best out of them all, i put a good bit on WO2 on 360 and pc, but WO3 is the bestsimply because it offers the largest character selection choices, a camp ( home base thing ) , bonding level with characters, gauntlet and versus mode, and each character has costumes / outfits you can unlock, and each character out of all available 145 characters each one offers their own combo movesets, unlockable outfits and unique weaponry, and dialogue. While the story and gameplay can be a bit of total BS at times, as your allied friendlies are pretty much useless and made of paper ( and the enemy and many characters use swords ) and die of you dont immediately go to them on the map and save them ( game over ) , this game allows you infinite quick saves, even in combat, allowing you to simply pick up right before your game over or sooner if you have a difficult time.

Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate is a Dynasty Warriors 7 + Samurai Warriors 3 cross-over hack and slash game. Pro: - A huge amount of content. There are 8 story mode chapters + a lot of bonus content. Some battles scenarios are variations of the same map, but they all have something that makes them stand out. You'll be busy for a long time even if you only want to beat every scenario once on the lowest difficulty. It took me 30 hours just to clear the first 4 story chapters. - An enormous roster of 144 characters. Each character has a unique combat moveset, is fully voice acted, etc. - Fun local 2-player split-screen coop. A big selling point if you have someone to play with in person. - Fun gameplay challenges. I actually lost some story mode battles on normal difficulty for a change. Hard and Chaos high rank levels are tough, even foot soldiers will deal good damage to you. Hardest are the battles where you have the objective to keep multiple allies alive (they die = you lose). - The majority of the soundtrack is great. It features music from the original games (including older titles). In "Free Mode" you get to pick which track you want to listen to during the battle. - Fun interactions between characters of different franchises. - Downloadable player-edited scenarios. The tool is relatively limited, but you can do things like editing voice lines, replacing officers and their portraits, turning all enemy soldiers into tigers, changing the battle time limit, etc. - It uses the same weapon fusion system as Warriors Orochi 2, which is neat. Adds some combat customization and steady power progression. - Samurai and Dynasty Warriors characters share equal screen time. The older games strongly favored the Dynasty Warriors cast, which probably upset the Samurai Warriors fans. Props to the Koei devs for paying attention. - You can skip all the cutscenes and dialogue segments. It is relevant since you'll replay scenarios. - Gallery mode has a lot of stuff. Individual character battle animations, artworks, cutscene records and even text summaries of the old Warriors Orochi 1-2 story. The only thing missing is a summary of the original character stories, but they want you to play DW7 and SW3 instead of just reading a wiki, which is fair I guess. - Lots of unlockable costumes, including some outlandish or goofy looking things that you wouldn't expect and outfits that the characters wore in the older games. Con: - It is a Playstation 3 port at heart. Alt+tab causes the game to crash in fullscreen mode and using a monitor with high refresh rate makes special effects glitch out (you have to set your monitor to 60hz to fix it). - The game crashes every couple of hours in general. I think you can prevent it by closing and restarting the game every ~60 minutes or so, but I'm not sure. - Using the team attack skill while on a horse can get you stuck in terrain, which makes it a self-defeat button. - Warriors Orochi 3 assumes you know the story of Warriors Orochi 2, Dynasty Warriors 7 and Samurai Warriors 3. You'll have no idea what's going on if you didn't play any of those (but only DW7 is available on Steam). - Most characters don't get a fleshed out storyline. - It is Dynasty Warriors 7 combat. I much prefer Warriors Orochi 1-2 combat (=Dynasty Warriors 5). DW7 is too crowded and chaotic. You often lose track of your character in the masses and your invulnerable Musou attack oneshots everything. Hardly anything can kill you on normal difficulty, except for the Musou attacks of enemy officers, which may oneshot you. - Somewhat grindy. It's not so bad if you always stick to the same characters, but the game encourages you to switch characters often and EXP sharing is greatly limited. - No English voice acting. Samurai Warriors 3, D.W.7 and W.O.2 all had English voices available. It is relevant because you can't always pay attention to the text in the middle of combat. - Audio for mid-battle cutscenes is tied to "SFX Volume" instead of "Voice volume", while all other dialogue is tied to "Voice volume". Meaning if you lower the SFX Volume to be able to hear the music over the death screams of foot soldiers and whatnot, then the mid-battle cutscenes are barely audible. - The game doesn't autosave your battle preparation and hub progress on departure. You have to save manually via the options menu. - It takes ages for the game to open the "Musou Battlefields" menu (where you download scenarios edited by other players). Neutral: - Gauntlet Mode can range from "fun" all the way to "completely miserable". Most importantly, it depends on whether or not you paid attention in the tutorial. Your goal is to unlock "formations" by recruiting characters via the "Mystic" npc. Some formations reveal the escape portal from the start (by pressing R3). Without those, Gauntlet Mode isn't enjoyable. - In general, I have mixed feelings about Gauntlet Mode as endgame content. It feels more like an overblown minigame. Much of the Gauntlet Mode combat is about cheesing enemies that will just oneshot you if you fight them the normal way. - Well implemented guest characters, in terms of gameplay, but I don't like the map additions like modern day office buildings. Feels out of place. - The original release of Warriors Orochi 3 had issues. It took them years to polish it up with a plethora of updates and DLC. That's all included here however, it really is the "Ultimate Definitive Edition". - The game is more complicated than older Warriors games, but not so much that I'd call it a problem. - The game looks good... for a game that originally released on Playstation 3. - The menu controls for confirm and cancel are in reverse, which is odd especially because they knew it would irritate people, since they put an option in the controls menu to switch it back to normal. - There is a pvp mode, but I didn't try it, so I can't comment on it. I only know that Warriors Orochi 2 pvp was a mess. It's not a game that you buy for the pvp. Verdict: Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate is a real treat for the fans. I highly recommend it if you liked one of the Dynasty Warriors or Samurai Warriors games. You'll be out of the loop as a newcomer, but that doesn't have to stop you. It may even be the best Koei Musou Warriors game available on Steam, although the technical issues of the PC port put a damper on it.

If you've ever dreamed of seeing 145 legendary warriors from ancient China, feudal Japan, and mythic realms clash against hordes of enemies—and win—Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate Definitive Edition is your battlefield. This isn’t a subtle game. It’s a wild, ridiculous, and endlessly satisfying musou experience that’s equal parts fan service and action overload. But underneath the absurd numbers and explosions is a surprisingly deep system, a massive content pool, and an earnest love letter to fans of Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors, and everything in between. The plot is pure anime-level chaos: after the world is ravaged by a giant hydra, the last remaining warriors team up with a time-traveling mystic to rewrite history and save their fallen allies. It’s convoluted but fun, acting as an excuse to mash together heroes from multiple timelines and universes—including guest stars like Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden) and Sophitia (Soulcalibur). Don’t expect serious drama. Expect gods, demons, and samurai slicing through legions of soldiers while discussing the fate of reality between combo chains. The core gameplay is classic musou: pick your favorite warrior (or three—you can switch on the fly), dive into the battlefield, and defeat thousands of enemies in glorious style. Every character has unique combos, specials, and ultimate Musou attacks, and the game rewards experimentation and mastery. What Ultimate Definitive Edition does well is layering this with depth: -Character customization through skill trees, weapon fusion, and leveling. -Team mechanics, letting you build synergistic trios with unique tag-team moves. -DLC content baked in, adding dozens of new scenarios, costumes, weapons, and challenge modes. -Gauntlet Mode, where you command a team of five in a survival-style battle system. It’s a lot—but in a good way. The game never runs out of things to do. Originally released over a decade ago, WO3 Ultimate isn’t going to blow you away with modern graphics—but this Definitive Edition runs beautifully on modern hardware. The framerate is stable (even with hundreds of enemies on-screen), the textures are cleaned up, and load times are fast. It’s not a visual marvel, but it’s smooth and functional, which is all it needs to be for the carnage to flow. You can tackle most of the game solo or in co-op, both locally and online. Playing with a friend amps up the fun and strategy, especially in the more chaotic stages or challenge missions. And with the sheer number of characters, side stories, unlocks, and modes, replayability is virtually endless. For all its content and charm, Warriors Orochi 3 won’t convert people who dislike the musou formula. The gameplay loop is repetitive by nature: move to an area, wipe out enemies, defeat an officer, repeat. The narrative is campy, and the UI can feel overwhelming at times with its dozens of menus and submenus. But fans know exactly what they're signing up for—and this version delivers it better than ever. Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate Definitive Edition is the biggest, boldest, and most refined entry in the Warriors franchise to date. It’s a perfect celebration of Koei Tecmo’s hack-and-slash legacy, with enough content to last for dozens—if not hundreds—of hours. It's not subtle, it's not balanced, and it's definitely not quiet. But it is a blast. Unapologetically over-the-top, endlessly replayable, and the ultimate musou playground. Rating: 8/10
