About DYNASTY WARRIORS 5 XTREME LEGENDS

DYNASTY WARRIORS 5 XTREME LEGENDS (DW5XL) is
an expansion disc that can be played without the original Dynasty Warriors 5
(DW5). DW5 can be “remixed” with DW5XL to add new Xtreme Legends features to
DW5’s Musou and Free Modes. (Dynasty Warriors 5 is sold separately).

DYNASTY WARRIORS 5 XTREME LEGENDS serves up a
banquet of 18 all-new maps, 5 sizzling modes, and so much more! In “Legend”
mode, gamers will take part in never-before-told stories, including the first
showdown between the Kingdoms of Wei and Shu, and the attempt to kidnap the
Emperor. Players can order up a new hero in the series’ most expansive “Edit”
mode; with la carte options to create 20,000 possible character combinations.
In the game’s new “Destiny” mode, the player starts as a foot soldier, and works
their way up the ranks. Gamers will have a previously unheard of level of
control over their character’s destiny by choosing which officer they will serve
and to which kingdom they will pledge allegiance.

Additional features include 2 player co-op
play in the intimidating “Xtreme” mode, two new “Challenge” courses, a new
“Blacksmith” system that allows players to upgrade their characters and weapons
using special items, a “Novice” difficulty level, plus new rare items and
