Dynasty Warriors: Origins is a TPP slasher action game with tactical elements. The creators of the previous installments of the series, the Omega Force studio, are responsible for this game.

Plot

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is loosely based on The Tale of the Three Kingdoms, which describes the civil war fought in China at the turn of the second and the third century. The novel focuses on the conspiracies, intrigues, and battles between the powers of Shu Han, Wei, and Wu.

In previous games from the series, dozens of playable characters were made available, some of which were authentic characters associated with the struggle for the unification of China. In this installment, for the first time we embody a nameless hero who does not appear in the history pages. He is trying to find his way in the chaos of war and have a real impact on it, leading a great army.

Windows Central: 4 / 5 by Michael Hoglund

While the absence of being able to select from a roster of heroes pains me, the across-the-board gains to other gameplay systems, as a result, pay off. Especially after the disaster that was Dynasty Warriors 9, Origins gets Omega Force back to their roots in a way I didn't know I craved. A must-buy for any fan of the series.

Full Review

The Beta Network: 9 / 10 by Anthony Culinas

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is the most refined entry in the series, blending hyper-musou gameplay with strong strategic depth and a solid 60 FPS on PlayStation 5. While the story and lack of multiplayer hold it back from legendary status, the game shines with its impressive fighting mechanics and exhilarating grand-scale battles.

Full Review

COGconnected: 80 / 100 by Mark Steighner

By not numbering this latest game, the developers are signaling a rebirth of the series. In many ways that’s true. The action-RPG mechanics and narrative-heavy design bring the franchise in line with other ARPGs. At the same time, Dynasty Warriors: Origins is still a Musou game at heart. The immense battles fans of the genre love are still there. There’s less of a repetitive feeling this time around, and the game should be successful in courting new players coming from other ARPGs.
