Overview

A hack-and-slash action game and a revised version of Samurai Warriors 4. Rather than continuing the earlier game, it reworks the same setting with a character-focused story mode, letting players pick a warrior and follow a scenario that changes based on their choice. Players cut through large numbers of enemies on the battlefield and can bring two characters into a fight at once, switching between them freely.

Reception

While the characters interact in amusing and interesting ways, they are one-dimensional. The few new shallow storylines hardly justify a repurchase. Buy this if the previous game was missed, or if there's a need for a cheap PS4 Musou release.

Samurai Warriors 4-II isn't a horrible game by any means, but the game just doesn't quite entice the gamers of today to venture through its trials.

Samurai Warriors 4-II is an excellent addition to the Warriors franchise, but could have done with a bit more change to differentiate itself from its predecessor.

In the end, Samurai Warriors 4-II is yet another Musou entry out of a dozen or so that hit every year. However, these button-mashing brawlers can still provide hours of entertainment for players who want to turn their brains off and enjoy some over-the-top action. So long as there are entries that provide a competent experience, there are still Musou...

If you are one of the people who appreciate this series' unique brand of action gameplay, then there is plenty to like in Samurai Warriors 4-II- the best gameplay system in the series, combined with a great setting, a massive amount of content, and the all new Survival Mode make this game an easy sell for the fan.
