Mash the attack button until people around you die.

However, no matter what mode you play the game in, it’s always the same. There’s also an interesting weapon affinity system and an interesting strategy type mode called Ambition Mode. There is a huge roster of characters to choose from, each with their own variety of attacks and special “musou” maneuvers, and each able to equip numerous different weapons. The notion of “territory control” returns, as you and your troops slowly make your way into enemy bases, and as always, the only real threat in the game are enemy generals. You choose a legendary Chinese hero, wade them through hordes and hordes of peons, and button mash your way to victory as they fall at your feet. In short, it’s the same Dynasty Warriors action we have come to know and love. But for the uninitiated, I’ll give you a brief rundown. I’ll point you toward our original Dynasty Warriors 8 review for extended thoughts on that title. In fact, much of the game is exactly Dynasty Warriors 8. Xtreme Legends 8 runs on the Dynasty Warriors 8 engine. It’s an especially good buy if you didn’t pick up the original, however, if you did, you might want to think twice about buying it again… unless you are just a huge fan of Lu Bu that is, which for Dynasty Warriors fans is a huge possibility. It’s more of an expansion pack that builds upon the original game’s release.

Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends isn’t really a new game. Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends just came out and… goddammit how many of these things are there? It feels like only a couple months ago that Dynasty Warriors 8 first released, and there’s a reason for that.
