Dynasty Warriors 6 PlayStation 2 (真・三國無双 5 Special, Shin Sangoku Musou 5 Special) is a revised and overhauled version of Dynasty Warriors 6. It features many changes that were not in the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 versions. The American version of Dynasty Warriors 6: Special is not on two discs like the Japanese port.
This title is advertised in Asia as the "completely revised" version of Dynasty Warriors 6.
Changes

- Ma Chao from a spear to a great sword (similar to Fu Xi's weapon).
- Cao Pi from a sword to a longsword.
- Zhang He from a spear back to his pair of claws.
- Taishi Ci from a spear back to his pair of rods.

- Renbu now decreases at a slower rate.
- To compensate for the downgrade, the port has lower resolution graphics and models compared to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. It also suffers from heavy slowdown and "disappearing" enemies. This is most likely because of the porting to a previous generation console with limited memory capabilities.
- Dueling and swimming have been removed. Water will always be shallow enough for the players to run through (except at Chi Bi, where the water part is inaccessible).
- Enemy AI at Conquest of Wu, Chi Bi, and Fan Castle have also been altered due to the absence of swimming. The Central Trap at He Fei Castle has also been changed to a multi-fire arrow contraption attached near the gate and a strong wind will be triggered after few seconds. The water pool below Central Trap also been removed.
- A good portion of the unique clothing and banners used to distinguish the countries have also been omitted. Animations for the army's extra units (such as ballista and engineers) are altered or cut.
- The loading screen before battles has reverted to the standard black screen with flaming text.
- The generic officers in many stages have been changed or replaced to minimize the number of different models appearing in any particular battle. For instance, at Xu Chang, the vast majority of enemy (and even allied) officers use the same model as Xun Yu.
- All generic officers and some playable characters using saddle/horse are removed.
- Some AI enemy playable characters has new unique quote when starting to fight, or called "Encounter Duel". For example, Xu Zhu is talking "A new challenger!" and Zhou Tai saying "Fight me if you dare.", that means his/her will activate double attack buff instantly(30 seconds) and start fighting the player. Sometimes if the player meet an enemy playable character like Xiahou Dun, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, etc, they will trigger as above if this quotes are counted less. Ussualy, AI enemy are using Encounter 1 or 2 quote, but when AI enemy using an unique quote, they're trigger the buff and start fighting.
