Samurai Warriors 5 Officially Revealed, Comes To Switch This Summer

Pretty sure Oda Nobunaga wasn’t this hunky in real life.

I am not sure about this game. Will wait on some news.

Still will keep my eye on this though

This was my surprise drop. It looks fantastic. But I still gotta get 4DX... decisions, decisions.

Getting some nobunaga concerto vibes with the character design....

This one I'm keeping an eye on, but am not sure if I'm excited about it yet. Probably will wait to see how it reviews.

@nessisonett If these last couple of years haven't clued you in yet, real life is way overrated.

@nessisonett Hey, records from that era are spotty, at best!

I'm still mad that we never got Samurai Warriors 4 for Switch over here but having the fifth game could remedy that. Would be nice to see Takamaru again in this too, c'mon Nintendo add your magic to this one again.

I am loving the art style.

I used to really like these games, but after getting Fire Emblem Warriors and the 2 Hyrule Warriors games, there is no way I can justify going back to Dynasty or Samurai Warriors. The Nintendo themed games, which I prefer due to caring more about those characters compared to historical figures, have more content than I'll probably ever be able to finish.

@nessisonett a lot like how Ragnar probably wasn’t and Australian underwear model. But life goes on.

Nice to see 1943 back to midway is free, cant beat a classic shoot em up

Koei Tecmo seem to be working their arses off, good for them ig

@stinky_t They will have to after Age of Calamity.

The big question is will this be the game to break K-T's streak of making better Warriors games for other companies then they make for themselves. Personally, I really want it to be good, but that probably has to do with my fondness for Samurai Warriors as a series and the period of history on which the games are based.

Horrible character redesigns and the graphics are just garbage as well. They just continue to devolve the games since DW8. DW9 was the worst and now they keep going down the rabbit hole instead of redeeming themselves. Thank goodness for emulation so I can play the good games like SW2 and DW4.

@everynowandben I feel just the opposite, but fair enough.

Nice, Will keep my eyes open for this one.
Want to see more gameplay.

These games are chaotic and frustrating, but for some reason I keep getting sucked in.

Nah, there has been 2 big musou games already, which are enough for about 10 years.

Looking forward to this one. Always preferred it over the dynasty warriors.

I quite enjoyed the soundtrack of this trailer, and the "painting" effect after specials. Not sure if I'll be up to another musou, still haven't finished Age of Calamity, but I'll keep an eye

but is it going to have zamus and link?? haha.

I have to say, I adore this artstyle though.

As a fan of the Warriors series for 20 years, the lack of an English voice cast in SW4 felt like Koei trying to lower costs as much as possible. Then Dynasty Warriors 9 was an abomination of a game. SW5 has the potential to renew my faith in the company, but I have a sneaking suspicion they will instead cut all the same corners again.
