Edo Castle

Edo Castle is one of Ieyasu's castles which he'd been granted to by Hideyoshi for supporting the siege of Odawara Castle. It soon became the capital of Japan during the Tokugawa's reign as well as Ieyasu's second home.

Samurai Warriors
Edo Castle makes its main appearances in Samurai Warriors 2 as one of the final stages for the Western Army characters. The players are told to pincer the castle from all four sides and kill Hidetada to claim the castle. They will need to defeat the first wave of reinforcements led by Hanzō and wait for Ieyasu's main force to arrive. Players are then ordered to escort Kagekatsu to the main keep where the secret gateways suddenly open. While they are escorting Kagekatsu, Masamune and the Date army appear and Keiji heads towards them. Tadakatsu also offers to charge through, giving players the option to defeat him or go straight to Ieyasu, who is left wide open, with the exception of his guard, Tadayoshi.

It makes another appearance in Mitsunari's and Ginchiyo's dream battles. The players initially take out the northern gate where they are required to rescue Hideie from a rifle ambush. They are required to take out most of the offensive units sent by the Tokugawa. As the Mōri defect to the Tokugawa, reinforcements from the Uesugi, Sanada and Satake arrive to assist the undermanned western army. Should the players save Ekei from Toranosuke Aoyama, Kotaro will appear and attempt to kill Hideyori. His defeat as well as that of the Date should make the confrontation against Ieyasu go more smoothly. Yoshihiro has this stage as his last, where he defects and takes out both the Western and Eastern armies. After Ieyasu's fall, Ginchiyo arrives as the player's final opponent and must be defeated in order to win the stage.
