Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires

Dynasty Warriors 5 Empires (真･三國無双4 Empires, Shin Sangoku Musou 4 Empires) is the second expansion for Dynasty Warriors 5. Like the previous Empires expansion, the game focuses on the player's ability to simulate a leader taking and controlling territory, eventually becoming a powerful leader controlling China.

Gameplay

 * The entire cast from Dynasty Warriors 5 returns along with the ability to create an edit character from the Xtreme Legends title.
 * This expansion uses an updated version of the Dynasty Warriors 4: Empires system; policies are offered by officers and can be accepted or declined. These decisions can affect the battle (by offering various advantages) or the campaign as a whole (by altering popularity or expending funds). Like in the previous title, delegating the selection of policies to a particular officer may enable them to become the player's strategist.
 * Players may still choose whether to conquer the land in a historical scenario or in a fictional setting where the roles of each officer vary completely.
 * New in this game are the options to execute captured generals or allow them to leave unscathed. Officers may also die from old age if players may so desire.
 * Watching certain events unfold in the game will automatically unlock new character artworks in the archive gallery.
 * Players can replace the background music of each battle with tracks from both current and previous titles.
