    This is the definitive version of this game and those with next gen consoles and a love for the franchise should absolutely pick this up.

    If you love the genre, this is like an all-star package; and even for those a little cold on the idea of the games this is definitely worth a look.

    Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate is like an encyclopedia of the Musou series condensed in a single game, with a metric ton of contents rendered in a rock-solid 60fps frame-rate. Its old-gen legacy is however still too strong, compromising the entire production.

    Orochi 3 remains the lighthouse in the flood of Koei's Warriors-series. Even though the core mechanics remain unchanged the added content makes this the best entry in the series in a while.

    It's literally just a case of run in, kill a bunch of things and find the exit. [Issue#116, p.76]

    This Ultimate edition represents for Warriors Orochi what the Xtreme Legends Complete Edition represented for Dynasty Warriors: great content compendium of the old saga tradition but poor technological innovation for the new console generation. It's time to use tech force, Omega Force.

    Fans of the series will chastise us for rating it so low, and that’s probably fair. If you’re a fan, you’ll enjoy it due to the sheer amount of characters on hand from all of the Warriors universes, and that over-the-top hack and slash gameplay that you already like. If you’re not already deeply involved with any of the franchises though, you’re going to find a game that is inescapably fun at times and that shows an awful lot of promise, but which is ultimately let down by some poor design decisions and some somewhat dodgy AI.

    What can I say. After the 4th Dynasty Warrior game/some spinoffs, It just got repetitive, boring, not entertaining, story is a cluster ****What can I say. After the 4th Dynasty Warrior game/some spinoffs, It just got repetitive, boring, not entertaining, story is a cluster **** combat is mundane and too simplistic and overall it is just slightly above average. IT IS NOT A BAD GAME but.... it is one thing....BORING AND REPETITIVE AS ****KKKK! Koei Temco.... please change the combat (ADD MORE **** UNLOCKABLE COMBOS) and add more missions to the game. Your game can have 210 fighters in Warriors Orochi 4 for PC, Xbox One and PS4 but if the COMBAT IS REPETITIVE and the story is A GIANT CLUSTER **** why should I care??? This game was the worst 22nd birthday gift ever. *unistalls on Xbox One and smashes game disc to bits/piss on it* FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKK THIS GAME! Cry Dynasty Warrior fans! CRRRRRRRY!… Full Review »

    It's great. It's the best game I've ever seen. The picture is exquisite, the movement is smooth, and the design is exquisite.

    This game is good. It's a Dynasty Warriors spin off, but that's all it is. It tries to be something it can't be: a Dynasty Warriors game. ThisThis game is good. It's a Dynasty Warriors spin off, but that's all it is. It tries to be something it can't be: a Dynasty Warriors game. This game feels like it was rushed simply so that it would make money quicker and it wouldn't coincide with Godseekers. Honestly, this is the worst Dynasty Warriors game (or spinoff) I've ever played.… Full Review »
