Unlike previous titles in the franchise that focused on delivering their narrative by exploring the various regions of feudal Japan, Samurai Warriors 4-II casts a spotlight on the characters themselves and tells their stories through 13 exciting new chapters.

These chapters revolve around nine characters introduced in Samurai Warriors 4, three fan-favorites from previous titles and a brand new addition to the samurai roster.

The game will feature many new and improved features as the battle, action and character development systems have been revamped. It also introduces a highly challenging and richly rewarding mode called: the Endless Castle. Players can choose to enter and struggle to survive for as long as possible, or to play against the clock and see how far they can get up the castle’s increasingly difficult levels!


Completing the 14 exciting new episodes of the Samurai Warriors saga, the last chapters of Samurai Warriors 4-IIrevolve around Fealty, Honor, Fate, and War.

The central characters of these thrilling chapters were first introduced as playable in Samurai Warriors 4, apart from the fan-favorite character Gracia, who has been with the franchise since its second installment. Specifically:

  • Takatora Todo,a general who has sworn an oath of fealty to the Azai clan and vows to focus on living instead of recklessly endangering his life.
  • Lady Hayakawa, whose sense of honor and devotion to her family lead her to accept a cruel fate with bravery and a steady hand.
  • Yoshitsugu Otani,whose allegiance to the famed Mitsunari Ishida forces him to face a great enemy.
  • Gracia, an innocent young girl with a very unique goal in mind.

KOEI TECMO has also revealed customizable options for weapons and mounts that can be used in the game. Both weapons and mountsin Samurai Warriors 4-II have ranks and levels; players can combine similar types of weapons or mounts to upgrade their level and abilities. Combining high rank and high level weapons or mounts with those of the same elemental attribute can result in a "Compatibility Bonus" that allows the weapon or mount to break through the maximum level cap and bestows it new abilities!

These features open up endless possibilities that provide a unique play-style for each of the 14 protagonists of this riveting war drama.
