The Samurai Warriors saga is well known in the MUSOU universe. And if the base game was released in 2014. Now it’s finally available on Steam, with a facelift and all 150 DLCs. So yes, it adds quite a bit to what was already available. And we’re going to take a look!
1 vs 1000.
Samurai Warriors 4 DX is, in a way, the deluxe version of the basic game, but also the fourth installment of the Dynasty Warriors spin-off. The difference is that one is set in China, while the other takes place in Japan. In terms of time, we’re in the Sengoku era, at the time of the great civil war. All this in an era that will end with the unification of the great families: the Edo Era.
And what better way to discover the history of the title than to choose one of the 55 combatants in the story mode, which can be played both solo and in co-op. But also online or locally. Because yes, the strength of this saga is that it can be played in every possible way. Count on no less than fifty chapters to complete, knowing that content is also unlocked once the story is finished.

Let’s face it, Samurai Warriors 4 DX doesn’t shine in terms of gameplay. After all, it’s still the classic system. You choose your battle, your character and your stuff. Then we look at the battle map with the objectives, and there we are, plunging into battle alone against all. And yes, the NPCs present aren’t particularly helpful.
The strength of the title lies in the fact that many of the objectives are secret, requiring you to search the map from all sides to discover them. And the same goes for legendary equipment. This is the great strength of the title. It’s not just a linear battle. But to push the player to reduce the number of opposing enemies to 0. Especially since experience and gold will help you progress, so you don’t find yourself facing a wall of difficulty when the opposing NPCs become more powerful.
