Dream Mode
New to the Orochi series is Dream Mode. This new mode offers a storyline different from the ones offered in Story Mode. In this mode, stages are unlocked when certain criteria are met in Story or Free Modes. You do not get to choose your characters in this mode. Each of the characters in each stage are linked in some way which can prove advantageous to the completion of the stage. This mode is mostly used for unlocking Orochi X, known in the Japanese version as Shin Orochi

Versus Mode
Another new mode in Warriors Orochi 2 is the addition of 2 player versus mode. This offers four minigames that pit the players against each other in battle.

Tag Team and Elimination
This mode takes the two players against each other. This form of game play isvery reminicent of the original Dynasty Warriors where the two characters fight each other in a duel until one player's health bar reaches zero. Tag Team is 3 on 3 and Elimination is 1 on 1.

Tower
The goal of Tower is to knock the opponent off of the tower, all the while being attacked by regular peons

Steeple Chase
This Versus Mode resembles a traditional arcade style racing game, where the 2 players control horses and race to the finish line. Much like other arcade racing games, items are scattered throughout the track to give each of the the players an edge.

Survival Mode
This is a Tag Team mode. You choose three characters out of the ones you have unlocked and battle with three randomly generated characters in an arena much like Mortal Kombat/Tekken/Dead Or Alive. The walls can be broken and characters can be thrown out of the ring resulting in a defeat of that character. If you win, then you are put up against three other characters and it starts again. In this mode, level does not matter.

Wallpaper Edit

 * To obtain Wallpaper Edit you must play as all characters (Select characters then complete a stage, repeat.) and it will be unlocked on the Gallery Menu.

Two Extra Characters
Dodomeki and Gyuki are unlocked after obtaining a certain number of ingredients. These characters are not playable but are available in Survival and Versus (Tag Team and Elimination) Modes.

Costumes
Each character has a third costume that is earned by having the character at a Proficiency level of 10 out of 50.
