Dear Vitans,

Any Dynasty Warriors fans here? I need to ask something.....

So recently i bought DW: Next from the nearest shop with 50% discount (what a bargain!) and at the same time i saw DW8: Xtreme Legends at the showcase. I asked the owner what's the diffrence between these 2? Well he doesn't know much because he's not a fan of the series.....cute.

Even Google is not giving me the right answer so i need to know from you guys here. Should i consider getting DW8 XL too? If yes, then why?


Dynasty Warriors Next is better looking, has a better framerate, is exclusive to Vita but has annoying touch screen controls.  It has a conquest mode that isn't available in DW8XL.

Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends has more content, no touch gimmcks and is generally the better game, but has a worse framerate, looks worse and is also on PS4.  It has ambition mode (which is fantastic) which isn't availble in Next.

As a long time Musou fan, I found the touch controls refreshing. Only got annoying at the very end of the game when the duels took a long time.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
