Dynasty Warriors (or Shin Sangoku Musou in Japan) is a series of video games created by Koei based loosely around the Romance of the Three Kingdoms epic.
The games in this series are as follows:
These five games all follow the same basic format - a general is chosen as a playable character, and they play through a number of levels representing certain conflicts in the time of the three kingdoms, eventually defeating both of the other kingdoms and making their own the rulers of China. The generals are usually chosen from one of the three kingdoms (Wu, Shu or Wei; however, from Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends onwards, independent generals can be selected as well, although these are often secret characters.
The levels themselves follow a third-person beat-em-up format, where the camera is behind the player and they go around killing the enemy forces, while avoiding both the player's own death and one or more other loss scenarios (usually involving the death of the player's own superior, the loss of a critical ally or fortification, or the escape of an enemy leader).
The order of events in one of the above full (Musou) games, is this:
- Put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
- Defeat Dong Zhuo.
- Defeat the 'other' member of the alliance against Dong Zhuo (i.e. not Wu, Shu or Wei).
- Defeat one of the other three kingdoms.
- Defeat the last remaining other kingdom.
