    Although this release has a lot of gameplay downgrades from the previous title(DW 8E), I take it as a compromise to the new engine they're using. The game is fun and has a meaningful game loop unlike the dull open-world one in the original DW9, worth playing if you are a long time fan and just want to do some slashing. I hope this game is capable of being a better technology basis for theAlthough this release has a lot of gameplay downgrades from the previous title(DW 8E), I take it as a compromise to the new engine they're using.

    An ugly-looking, tedious, monotonous, incredibly empty game. I see no reason to shell out for it, when you can get Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires or Samurai Warriors 4: Empires.

    Dynasty Warriors 9: Empires brought some novelty to the table, but it overall ended up being a big, soulless disappointment.

    Unlike Dynasty Warriors 9 released in 2018, Empires focuses mainly on free play. Battles took the form of conquering enemy fortresses – it’s a breath of fresh air, but the AI copes with this new premise poorly. The graphics are disappointing as well, but despite many flaws the game is highly addictive.
