Take the two most brutal times in Chinese and Japanese history, cross them over with some multiversal snake magic and you Warriors Orochi. Both the Dynasty and Samurai Warriors game series tell the same basic story time and time again and while a lot of people might have issue with it, there is a charm to seeing what gets changed and get interpreted with each iteration. Warriors Orochi decides to throw that idea to the wayside and create an original crossover plot ala Super Robot Wars. It's fun to see how characters interact with the other franchise and even those within the same franchise tossing aside some of their differences in order to combat a greater threat. As the series goes on things get more chaotic but at the same time it's amazing seeing these warriors form some of the most violent time periods in human history do their damndest to fight for a peaceful and better tomorrow and honesty they get pretty close.
While Warriors Orochi 1 did get a PC port and I would love to see that, Orochi Z is the first two games together in one package. While it never came to the West the original releases Oroch 1 and 2 did so it shouldn't be too hard to get an English localization when the work is already done outside if putting it into the game. Even if they don't add the English dub, I'm sure most fans of the series would like to see this game finally come Westward.
Warriors orochi must be my favorite KOEI saga, i like it more than Dynasty and Samurai musou, But sadly this game is nowhere! it's very difficult to access, plus the game is only in Japanese.
This game has a PC version that's Japanese language only, so all you'd need is to get the PC files and translate them. Also this is the only Orochi game that was never released outside of Japan and it has extra content not in Warriors Orochi 1 & 2.

Dynasty Warriors: StrikeforceKoei brings us again a new addition to the Dynasty Warriors series. This installment still features the same storyline based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, with the various officers as playable characters. The character list and appearance is the same as in Dynasty Warriors 6, meaning some of the previous game's characters are not available.
The difference in this one is that the player is allowed to choose only one character for the chosen force (either Wei, Wu or Shu) who starts in a village that will act as the hub, or camp, from which the game battles are accessed. By completing story missions, some characters are added and can be played as without starting a new game, meaning all acquired weapons, items and materials will be kept.
The chosen character can be customized in various ways. Apart from the main weapon, one sub weapon, chosen from many weapon types, can be equipped. Both weapons can be switched anytime during battle, to accommodate the situation. A new addition is the Chi system which allows to set special abilities to the character, there are four slots to equip Chi (the two arms and legs). Weapons can also be customized by adding Orbs that give different abilities, such as elemental properties.
In the village, the player can exchange materials, buy weaponry, items for use in battle, Chi skills and Orbs. Some NPC's may appear in the village, some giving materials or items, or Officer cards, which can be set to help the Village's growth. Over time, better items can be acquired from the shops.
By talking to the quest board or the Guard at the village's gate, main Missions or Requests can be chosen. Each battle is a series of small maps where various enemy soldiers and weaponry are fought, eventually leading to the commander of the enemy army. The goal of each battle can vary, some are classic goals like "Defeat the Commander" and some, less battle oriented, like "Retrieve all treasure boxes". In addition, there also are bonus missions that require the player to defeat a particular unit, reaching a certain point before a certain time, etc. Each bonus mission gives extra experience points upon completion.
Other new additions to the battle system are the possibility to have aerial battles, and the main feature of the game: the Fury Mode, unleashed when the Fury gauge (replacing the traditional Musou gauge) is full. The furied character has better stats and move sets, and can unleash the infamous Musou attack to deal some extra damage.
To add to the surreal look of the game, some new bosses are actually massive beast-like weapons, and usually require the help of other players to defeat them. Multiplayer mode is available only via AdHoc connection, and can connect up to four players.Action Fantasy Historical
