By Raiding a territory you can weaken their resources so that when you come to Invade they are easier to take over. You can choose to recruit officers from surrounding regions, construct and upgrade buildings in each territory (blacksmith, item shop, mine etc.), forge alliances with regions to stop them attacking you, and choose the plan of attack for your territory. Having high relationships with officers means that they sometimes bring you gifts and are more likely to promote you in their ranks.Īs you work your way up the chain of command more options become available to you each month. As a vagabond, I spent most of my time building relationships with those I was serving and their immediate officers. You can choose one action per month, with the campaign ending after 50 years have passed, or one ruler unites the land under their banner. A vagabond unit can choose to join any ruler and, assuming they let you, will then serve under them and their ‘War Council Strategy’ for however long you wish. I chose to play as my custom character – ‘Brotagonist’ – and started as a vagabond unit, able to travel to any region and undertake quests, raids, and invasions, on behalf of the rulers there. I was going to count them but I probably would have destroyed my controller pressing the down button so much. It took me 28.63 seconds to scroll down the entire character roster. These characters don’t have unique voice acting, appearances, or weapons, but there are an absolute ton of them. Not only do all characters from DW8 Xtreme Legends return (plus the all new Xun Yu model) but players have the option of playing ‘bit part’ characters from the entire universe. There are a whole host of characters to choose from. This is really just choosing the starting rulers of each of the territories: Zhang Jiao won’t be a ruler if you choose a campaign later than the Yellow Turban Rebellion there will only be the four major factions (Shu, Wei, Wu, Jin) if you choose a later campaign, etc. Players first must choose which historical campaign to start their Empire Mode in.

This eponymous game mode takes place on a map of China split into different regions, with the overall objective being to control all of the regions.

The Empires ‘spin-offs’ take a different approach to the standard Warriors format by removing the narrative campaign mode and instead placing emphasis on player-made decisions.

We haven’t reviewed a Warriors Empires game on Rice yet so I’ll start with a brief introduction. This here’s my Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires Review!
