Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper

Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper (無双OROCHI2 Hyper) is the second re-release of Warriors Orochi 3. It is Koei's launch title for the Wii U.

Changes

 * Players can play using either the console's handheld controllers or the Wii U gamepad. If the player plays solo using the gamepad, the mini-map is displayed on it.
 * A new multiplayer card-battle mode called Duel Mode is included. The player forms their trinity of choice and arm themselves with four cards before each match. After deciding their deck of four, the battle begins after a stage has been selected. Cards can change the effects of the player's team and fall into one of four categories:
 * Attack (Red) - deals damage.
 * Auxiliary (Green) - adds a special effect to team's attacks.
 * Obstruct (Blue) - places a limiting effect on opposing player's team.
 * Special (Yellow) - any other special effects or techniques which doesn't belong in the previous three; conditions to use are specific and they may have side effects.


 * Since cards have varying degrees of efficiency depending on the character, players are encouraged to experiment with various combinations. Victory is achieved once one of the player's life meter's is depleted. Rare stones are the rewards for winners.


 * Downloadable content from the original game is also included.

New characters who debuted in Sengoku Musou Chronicle 2nd will not be in this game. The four new characters in Special and Hyper will not be available as DLC for the PS3/Xbox 360 ports.
