    In the end, Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate is a mediocre Musou title. The action of wiping out giant hordes of enemies is exhilarating at first and the gameplay is rather polished but unfortunately, that's all there is to it and there's no feeling of escalation.

    As a newcomer to the franchise, you’ve got a $60 game packed with the most content I’ve ever seen in a Dynasty Warriors entry. For fans who already own the original game, though, you’re faced with purchasing a $40 upgrade kit that comes with two new story chapters, seven characters, one replayable game mode and a handful of gameplay updates. It’s an easy sell for brand new players, but I think only the most hardcore of Warriors fans will feel like the price-tag of the DLC update is worth it for Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate.

    I am not a fan of how these miso games and Japanese fighter games release different version after different version to suck every penny out ofI am not a fan of how these miso games and Japanese fighter games release different version after different version to suck every penny out of the consumer . That said this is for me the best musou I ever made in my opinion. Heaps of movies and characters endless combinations of attacks absolutely gorgeous characters.

    This is what Warriors Orochi 4 should've been when the game launched.

    The title offers an even better and deeper character customization than WO3 offered. Promotions are back, upgrade stones are back, character stats cap are lifted, skill trees are expanded, players can craft weapons, etc. The game simply just offers a lot of stuff to do and a lot of ways to upgrade your characters.

    The story has been expanded, new characters have been, added and an extra game mode similar to what WO3 makes a come back through the "infinity" mode.

    The game is extremely fun gameplay wise and yes while it will get repetitive is addictive enough to offer plenty of replayability due to the ridiculous amount of playable characters.

    People seem to score this game much worse than the vanilla version and truth be told I can't even exactly blame them for doing it but frankly speaking it's unfair.

    This game doesn't require a previous purchase of the vanilla version and the only reason it sucks is if you bought the vanilla version on release for 60 euros and now having to upgrade for another 40 but if you judge this game on its own there's no way this game is worse off than the vanilla version.

    Frankly speaking this is the most fun Warriors game up to date and if you are a fan of this franchise or of this type of game than by all means this game will not disappoint.

    Everything works as expected. Fans of the genre and games will love it, detractors will hate it.
