The Dynasty Warriors franchise offers a series of hack-and-slash action games, taking place during China’s Three Kingdoms period, where players engage in large-scale battles against numerous enemies.

In an action-packed trailer released by Koei Tecmo, the frenetic, fast-paced style of the game is showcased, with players battling huge waves of enemies along with bosses to progress.
