Warriors: Abyss is a production on the border of the arena survival genre (action games with elements of roguelikes and bullet hell shooters) and musou-type slashers (in which players take on the roles of characters fighting dozens of enemies at once). It was developed by Omega Force studio, and its release was handled by Koei Tecmo company.

In Warriors: Abyss we watch the action in an isometric view. We undertake hellish trials, during which we fight hordes of enemies and eliminate powerful bosses waiting at the end of each stage.

GamingBolt: 8 / 10 by Joelle Daniels

Warriors: Abyss is an excellent mash-up of a roguelite structure with the core gameplay of the Dynasty Warriors franchise. There is plenty of content to unlock, and the level of variety in creating builds for each run is incredible. Just be ready to skip through a lot of poor dialogue.

Final Weapon: 2.5 / 5 by Angelus Victor

Warriors: Abyss is Omega Force's attempt at breaking into the rougelite genre. There is some fun to be had, but ultimately, the game lacks potential in a lot of cases. With poor boss battles and limited gameplay features, you're better off spending your time elsewhere unless you are a die-hard fan of Warriors.

Use a Potion: 7.5 / 10

Warriors: Abyss offers an exciting shake-up of the musou formula with its fast-paced action and satisfying roguelike progression system. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t have the variety of some other prolific roguelike titles and the chaotic nature of combat can sometimes lead to frustration, but that thrill of cutting through hundreds of enemies in seconds whilst strategically building formations and character bonds always feels great. There’s a lot of potential for variety through the sheer number of characters on offer, and whilst the gameplay loop can get a little repetitive, it never stops being fun.

The main cons of the game

  • Repetitive Gameplay: While the core combat is enjoyable, many players noted that the gameplay can become monotonous due to the limited variety in stages, enemies, and bosses.
  • Lack of Story Depth: The narrative is minimal and lacks the engaging character interactions or storylines found in other titles, which may disappoint fans looking for a richer experience.
  • DLC Pricing Issues: Many players criticized the high prices of cosmetic DLC, feeling that they are excessive for what is offered, especially since the costumes are not very visible during gameplay.

  • Expanded Story Elements: Players wished for deeper character stories or interactions to enrich the experience and provide more context to the gameplay.
