Dynasty Warriors 9 Ps4/xbox One/ Microsoft Windows Hack and slash game Dynasty Warriors 9 brings an old-school classic into an open world environment.

Players can freely roam around a realistic looking China where you can walk, ride horses or use boats with a whopping 90 playable characters.

In a novel twist to the series, players now use weather and the day and night cycle to hide from their enemies and there’s a new stamina gauge that gradually replenishes until full.

Each character has the ability to fish, camp and collect reasources to upgrade their weapons. They also have a unique reactive special attack that, if timed right, can disable your enemies.

Dynasty Warriors 9 retells the story of Romance of the Three Kingdoms in a series of 13 chapters.

The idea is great – but the lack of

APP personality and repetitive game mechanics will likely leave you unfulfilled. ★★★
