Samurai Warriors 4-II

Samurai Warriors 4-II is an excellent addition to the Warriors franchise, but could have done with a bit more change to differentiate itself from its predecessor.

Samurai Warriors 4-II is a great addition to the series and proves to be plenty of fun, whether you're playing solo or with a friend. Go get yourself lost in this Feudal era drama.

Even if it's not a full sequel, it expands greatly for the enthusiasts of the first game. It offers dozens of gameplay hours and new features that make the game the definitive edition. Sadly, it didn't age well if we talk about graphics.

Even though the game doesn’t look any better from the previous instalment, Samurai Warriors 4-II’s gameplay is as fun as ever and the story is definitely worth your time.

Rather than a reforged sword, 4-II is more of a secondary blade – and its edge is just as sharp.

Fans of Koei's hack and slash games will most likely find something to enjoy in Samurai Warriors 4-II - if you're in it for the overall gameplay, it's a lot of fun.

It's a very interesting expansion for Samurai Warriors 4, with not enough new features to be called Samurai Warriors 5, but enough content to satisfy its fans.

Quite a disappointing revision of the game that lost its story mode on behalf of a few more hours of gameplay. It may not be attractive because of that, although it deserves an opportunity.

Samurai Warriors 4-II doesn’t truly fit the role of a sequel, nor an expansion, but it acts more like an alternate version of Samurai Warriors 4. And honestly, that’s alright because it works as it sure is fun to play through.

For newcomers, this is a great entry to use as a jumping point into the series. For series veterans, the changes, omissions, and small additions make it a lesser product than its predecessor, but if you're interested in the lore, 4-II is still worth checking out.

With an emphasis on more characters and an intuitive new upgrade system, alongside the robust Free mode and Endless Castle mode, and there is a lot of new content to go around multiple times.

In the end, Samurai Warriors 4-II is yet another Musou entry out of a dozen or so that hit every year. However, these button-mashing brawlers can still provide hours of entertainment for players who want to turn their brains off and enjoy some over-the-top action.

Samurai Warriors 4-II, as a remake of a title released just a year ago, for the few new contents introduced, is disappointing. Considering it as musou, however, is fun despite the repetitive gameplay.

Samurai Warriors 4-II was a fun game to play at first, but it eventually became mind-numbingly repetitive.

Omega Force has become a machine at crafting these, and for those not yet tired of the setting, there is still a copious amount of fun to be had here.

Samurai Warriors 4, title released a year ago that served to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Musou games based in feudal Japan, receives the first of its two expansions. SW 4 II is what once was known as Xtreme Legends, and includes interesting news as a new set of skills and enhanced survival mode.

For owners of the original release, a fifteen to twenty dollar DLC expansion option would have gone a long way to selling this, but it’s a worthy purchase for everybody else.

Samurai Warriors 4-II introduces a new character and some minor changes, but it's still one of the best musou around.

Tons of new game modes and playable changes refresh the classic Samurai Warriors 4 hack´n slash formula.

Samurai Warriors 4-II isn’t a horrible game by any means, but the game just doesn’t quite entice the gamers of today to venture through its trials.

Samurai Warriors 4-11 bases itself on one of the best possible Warriors games, and therefore its core gameplay is of undeniable quality. It’s a great game by all accounts. However, most of what makes it great was sold to us a year ago, so while there’s still a ton of fun to be had, I am not going to be singing its praises a second time.

Little effort was conveyed in the new edition of Samurai Warriors 4. Fans of the genre could still consider this one, but there are far more interesting musous out there.

Samurai Warriors 4-II isn't a bad game, but it will only appeal to gamers who long to play lengthy battles where mindless button-mashing trumps strategy and variety.

For fans that missed out on the original release, this is the version to get. The hack-n-slash style of gameplay might not be suitable for everyone’s taste, but the game is still fun in short bursts.
