The spin-off franchises have done rather well on Nintendo platforms, so-much-so that Hyrule Warriors got three different versions, two of which contain all the previously released content for fans to enjoy along with some long-desired bonus content. When it comes to Nintendo and the Warriors franchise, we have a lot of reason to be excited. Now, Koei Tecmo and Omega Force have returned to the core roots of the franchise with the release of Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition that fits right at home on the Nintendo Switch.

The same goes for any Warriors game on the market. I’ve smashed through Ganondork – I mean – Ganondorf’s forces countless times, and I’ve even had time to level up each character’s weapons, items, and unlocks time and time again. I’ve spent countless hours in Hyrule as various characters from the famed The Legend of Zelda franchise. Since the release of Hyrule Warriors and Fire Emblem Warriors, I’ve never really felt much satisfaction from the ‘Musou’ genre in recent times. Load times can take a good few seconds to get through after a mission +Plays great in both docked and handheld modes. +Performs rather well, even in the most intensive moments

+A robust roster of characters from every dynasty, allowing fans hundreds of hours of fun +Stunning visuals that provide a delightful entertainment experience on the Switch However, does it work and does it give us a worthwhile experience? Dynasty Warriors 8 XL Definitive Edition has landed on the Switch, bringing with it all the DLC and expansion content previously released for the core title, but also some new content that made its way around with both the Empires and Legends versions of the game.
