Warriors Orochi 4 (無双OROCHI3, Musou Orochi 3; lit. Unmatched Orochi 3) is the latest installment of the crossover series Warriors Orochi.

The game, developed by Masaki Furusawa, Shigeto Nakadai, and Yoshitaka Murayama, was released in 2016. It comes in Premium Box, Treasure Box, and Gamecity Shopping editions. Early access features over 30 playable characters, story stages until episode 10, and online multiplayer battles.

Plot

Zeus brings heroes from Three Kingdoms and Warring States back to Orochi's world, seeking eight mysterious bangles with Mystics' aid to relive past conflicts.

Gameplay

  • Gameplay mechanics like class types and three-man teams are kept; however, the Wonder type is removed, putting it back to a total of three types (Power, Speed, and Technique).
  • The switch combo system from the previous installment now activates a tornado to pop enemies upwards, to make subsequent attacks easier to execute.
  • The base camp feature used in Warriors Orochi 3 returns. However, the camp is entirely menu-based, so there's no hub world to walk around in.
  • Players can send unused characters to Training for additional experience. They may even collect gems and weapons to bring back to the player.
  • Sacred Treasures allow the player to perform Magic, which replaces the prior Type Action mechanic from previous installments. Each one belongs to a different category separate from class type. R1 is used as the base button modifier for various magic commands.
    • R1 + X: Instantly summons a mount and has the player automatically mount it.
    • R1 + Square: Uses a Sacred Treasure's Normal Magic. Requires/consumes a small portion of the magic gauge.
    • R1 + Triangle: Triggers a Sacred Treasure's charge magic. Requires/consumes a full magic gauge to execute.
    • R1 + Circle: Executes Unique Magic, which is a magic unique to each character. Requires/consumes the player's entire magic gauge and half of their Musou gauge.
  • The triple attack function has been replaced by Unity Magic, which can be used if the Unity Gauge is filled up through repeated usage of Charge or Unique Magic. It is triggered by pressing R2 and L2 simultaneously, and causes affected enemies to drop more rewards than usual.
  • The combo counter now functions differently; it now retains the count for a long time until the player gets hit, or unless charge and unique magic spells are executed, which will reset the combo counter.
  • An online competitive mode called the Battle Arena is implemented.
  • Collaboration characters from the previous installment are omitted to further emphasize interactions between the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors cast.
  • Characters central to the story receive "deification" forms based on the number of bracelets found. These enable the use of enhanced actions that do more damage than normal.
  • Downloadable content includes weapons, costumes, and other bonuses.

Characters

All non-guest characters from the previous title return for the sequel. Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires and Samurai Warriors 4-II characters and visuals are used for the playable cast. Six new playable additions are included, as well as the playable debut of Diamondback. All new characters added to the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors series up to Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires and Samurai Warriors 4-II join the playable cast.
