Sample video of Cheng Pu's fighting style.

Cheng Pu is affiliated with the double pike in this title. When equipped with it, Cheng Pu can perform the following unique attacks listed below.

Unique Attacks
Unique Flow Attack Finisher: Enemy Downed + Square Square Square Square: Cheng Pu's finisher has him hop up and stab his weapon on the ground, producing a tremor that sends nearby foes airborne. Can be followed up with an aerial flow attack. This move is derived from the double voulge's first charge attack from the previous two games.
Unique Trigger Attack: R1 + Square: Unleashes four zigzagging swipes with each hit dazing enemies for a brief moment. Charging this move will further expand its attack coverage.
Special Technique: R1 + Circle: Unleashes an angled rotating swing chained to an overhead twirl, then delivers a sudden fierce strike that briefly generates a slash-imbued shockwave. This attack is partially derived from the double voulge's third charge attack from the previous two games.
Musou Attack: Circle: Attacks the enemy with several twirling slashes done back and forth. Cheng Pu then proceeds to wave his weapon around as it becomes engulfed in flames before rotating it in an overhead manner to both juggle and scorch foes continuously. It ends with him scattering surrounding enemies with a fierce swipe while hunching slightly.
Aerial Musou Attack: X Circle: Performs an ascending spin slash followed by a wide slash when facing the front once more. Each hit is accompanied by a trail of flames that send foes flying while burning them momentarily.
Horse Maneuvers
Summon Horse: L2: Summon horse to the battlefield. Holding L2 as the horse approaches will allow the character to automatically mount them.
Auto-Run: Riding Mode + L2: Automatically runs towards a specified destination. If a destination has not been set, the horse will instead run towards the location of the player's currently selected mission.
Sprint: Riding Mode + Direction + R1: Causes horse to run at a faster pace. Doing so depletes their stamina each time.
Jump: Riding Mode + Direction + R2: Causes horse to jump high while running.
Horse Fast Attack: Riding Mode + Square: Performs a fast and seamless attack while mounted. The attack itself varies depending on what type of weapon is equipped and whether the enemy is grounded or airborne.
Horse Trigger Attack: Riding Mode + Triangle: Performs an attack that sends enemies flying into the air. May vary depending on what type of weapon is equipped.
Horse Musou Attack: Riding Mode + Circle: Causes horse to sprint by consuming Musou instead of stamina.
Dismount Horse: Riding Mode + X: Dismounts from horse and resumes default fighting stance.
