    The combat system and its visual impact are excellent, especially since they work so well on the Switch 2. It's nice that you have decision-making that minimally impacts the narrative. Longer sessions can be challenging, however, as the gameplay revolves around the same tasks and the number of enemy types isn't overwhelming.

    Taking the series signature musou combat to a new level, the combination of satisfying overall combat and large-scale battlefield chaos help this to shine.

    Dynasty Warriors: Origins is an epic, maximalist hack-and-slash that creeps into full-blown JRPG territory in terms of scale and scope. It's the kind of experience that is more than just an average video game and can become a hobby in itself due to the wealth of content and depth of the gameplay. While it is disappointing that Origins does not give players the full Three Kingdoms story, it's hard to complain when the core package can easily breach the 100-hour range for completionists. While some may miss the multiplayer modes, it was time for a Dynasty Warriors focused on the single-player, story-driven experience for fans.
