Category:Dynasty Warriors

The Dynasty Warriors series is an action-oriented spin-off of Koei's turn-based strategy Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, which is itself based loosely around the Chinese epic of the same name. The first game, Dynasty Warriors, is a more traditional (though 3D and using weapons) fighting game, and therefore not usually considered a true member of the series that bears its name. Dynasty Warriors 2 was a spin-off of the original game, therefore the sequels' numbers don't line up between Japanese and North American releases. The main games in the series are (not including expansions and portable versions):
