A brilliantly absurd arcade brawler thats brimming with personality, but suffers from repetition and a glaring lack of online multiplayer.

Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition Review – Not Xtreme Enough
This is a game with genuinely days upon days worth of missions, challenges, objectives, characters and things to collect. It's not content light by any means - though it also doesn't change up at any point during its entire playtime. This is a pretty great Dynasty Warriors game, and Warriors fans will find hours of fun, but I'm not sure that more casual fans of action games will find it as endearing.
68%Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition Review - the best of an old franchise
Not much has changed, but the consistency of the Dynasty Warriors franchise holds true in spades with Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition. Extra content and a lower new-game cost accentuates a gratifying experience that’s filled with content that Dynasty Warriors fans have grown to love.
80%Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition Review
Without question the biggest, best looking, and most refined Warriors title on the battlefield, Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition is an absolute must buy for fans, while newcomers will find themselves jumping into the action at the most opportune time. Although the franchise will have to grind its recurring issues into dust before its next outing, we have a feeling that you won't be seeing an entry that's this robust for a long, long time.
