Jiang Wei is a character continued to appear in the series since his debut in Dynasty Warriors 2. He is also one of the characters cut from Dynasty Warriors 6.

In the Dynasty Warriors series, he is 19 years old.

Dynasty Warriors
Jiang Wei starts as an officer of Wei. As he takes Zhuge Liang's mantle in Shu, he proves his wit in an array of battles, such as Wu Zhang Plains and Bai Di Castle. His ending in Dynasty Warriors 5 shows him holding the fan of Zhuge Liang, clearing representing his Prime Minister position after Liang's death.

Warriors Orochi
In Warriors Orochi 2, Jiang Wei has left Shu to test his skills and has found himself in the service of Yuan Shao. When Zhang He attacks Yuan Shao at Shizugatake, Jiang Wei is given his chance to test his mettle. One of Zhang He's plots uses the discord between Yuan brothers to turn them against Yuan Shao. First, Zhang He sends Xun You to convince Yuan Tan to defect to Wei, which he does. Seeing this, Jiang Wei has Yuan Shao prepare a letter to send to Yuan Xi to prevent him from defecting as well. When Jiang Wei is caught, he defects to Wei and convinces Yuan Xi to defect as well.

Next, at Yamatai, Jiang Wei and Toshiie Maeda attempt to locate and capture Da Ji and Himiko. However, they were unaware of the defenses that Da Ji had prepared so well. However, they are given aid by Nagamasa Azai and his allies, the Asakura. In the end, they allow Himiko to escape but manage to capture Da Ji.

Kessen
In Kessen II, Jiang Wei is a young man who wishes to fight with Liu Bei. He is a man of simple origin and appears when Zhao Yun returns to Shu. His defeated quote implies that he greatly respects Zhuge Liang, but this isn't expanded on in the game's story. He rides into battle as reinforcements and continues to serve Liu Bei from then on. He serves as a political adviser and fights with a volunteer army consisting of men from Tian Shui. He is good with both magic and warfare, making him one of the more balanced units in battle.

Dynasty Warriors 4: Xtreme Legends

 * Level 11 Weapon: Prodigal
 * Base Attack: 49
 * Attributes: Level 14 Peacock Urn, Level 20 Wing Boots, Level 14 Horned Helm, Level 17 Herbal Remedy
 * Map: Cheng Du
 * Restrictions: None
 * Requirements: Defeat all generals before Liu Shan surrenders.


 * 1) Ring the gong at the west, then ignore Jian Ge Gate, just go kill Xu Zhu and Xu Huang VERY quickly.
 * 2) Liu Shan should appear by now. He'll move towards Zhang He and Cao Ren. Save before you go ahead and defeat both of them, all before Liu Shan surrenders to them.
 * 3) Liu Shan should be heading towards the bottom right. Seal the gate at bottom right.
 * 4) Defeat Deng Ai and Zhong Hui. They should be easier than the other 4 usable characters.
 * 5) Go back near Liu Shan.
 * 6) Level 11 message.

Note: Since it's tough to keep Liu Shan from surrendering, it's recommended to use the two-player trick, with the second player keeping Liu Shan inside his fort by hitting the gong to close the door in front of Liu Shan.

There are really really many ways to do this. For example, if you ring the gong on the west, Liu Shan will go towards the east first. If you did not ring it, he will go towards the western gates first. This also varies hugely depending on each player's fighting style and skill. You are recommended to find your own path for this weapon because your style and skill are not the same as mine.
