About
Samurai Warriors 4 is a single player and multiplayer hack and slash game with fantasy and historical themes. It was developed by Omega Force and was released on March 20, 2014. It received mostly positive reviews from critics.
With the series celebrating its 10th anniversary, the main Story Mode has been overhauled, with two primary ways to play: Regional play, which focuses on the heroic actions of individual warriors throughout the land and A Land United, which focuses on the final years of the turbulent Warring States period. No fewer than fifty brave warriors play out this rich historical tapestry.
- Samurai Warriors 4 features a superb story mode and a delightful cast of characters, making it a must-have for fans of the franchise.
- The game delivers endless hours of fun with visually appealing graphics and smooth gameplay, alongside a lengthy campaign and a huge list of playable characters.
- Improvements to the Warriors formula, such as Hyper attacks and better battlefield management, enhance the overall experience and keep players engaged.
- The gameplay can become monotonous over time, with repetitive combat and a poorly presented story in parts.
- Technical issues such as noticeable frame drops and pop-in graphics detract from the overall experience.
- While the game is accessible, it may not be compelling enough to attract new players who are not already fans of the series.

The game features a superb story mode with a delightful cast and significant improvements to the traditional warriors formula, making it a must-buy for musou fans. However, some users note that the story is presented poorly in parts and suffers from repetition.

While Warriors fans may find more of what they enjoy here, there just isn't enough meat on the bones to convince non-believers to part with their cash.

Bursting back onto Sony platforms with a vengeance, Samurai Warriors 4 cuts down Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition and KOs Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate. Boasting a superb story mode, a delightful cast, and countless improvements to the Warriors formula, musou fanatics shouldn't even blink before buying. Move over Lu Bu, the Demon King won't be beaten any time soon.
