Its attacks are a low-powered paw swipe, and a powerful roaring Musou attack that sends an upward blast of fire against foes surrounding it. The tiger is the subject to many gimmicks in the series. Wu is mostly represented by a tiger. Sun Jian was also known as the "Tiger of Jiang Dong" and in Dynasty Warriors 5, he and two of his sons, Sun Ce and Sun Quan, wore robes with tiger skin.

In Dynasty Warriors 5: Xtreme Legends, tigers appear in the Legend Mode stage, Struggle for Nan Zhong, and are controlled by Beastmasters.

Tigers have also been seen in screenshots from the unreleased Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires, and have a much larger size compared to their previous forms.
