Better Playability
Gold Rush
Survival mode contains an exciting new course: "Gold Rush." Merely defeating the enemy will not win the stage. Instead, you'll have to gather as much gold as you can. This might be more difficult than you think! (P8)
Collect Gold to power up weapons and items.
New Vs. Mode Courses
Challenge three new courses in Vs. mode: "Duel," "Sumo," and "Gatekeeper." Liven up competition play with a few new rules.
New Difficulty Levels
•
Novice: Play at the Novice level to get through a level easily. Great for beginners and those who want to reach movie scenes quickly. Even though it's easier than normal, you can still acquire items.
•
Chaos: Play at the "Chaos" level for more of a challenge. More valuable items are your reward at this very difficult level of play.
You get the same EXP Points whether you're playing at the "Novice" or "Chaos" level.
REMIX: Power Up the Original with Xtreme Legends Features
Samurai Warriors™ Xtreme Legends® expands the Samurai Warriors world. When you choose "Import" (P15) from the Fight menu, you will be able to REMIX the two titles.
Transferring Data
If you have saved data from Samurai Warriors on a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2), you can transfer data. This will allow you to use your previously created officers and bodyguards in Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends.
*Data can be transferred without activating REMIX.
Story Mode
All 19 characters (15 from SW, 4 from SWXL, and 1 new officer) are available. One of the 20 characters is a new officer (P9). Retry any stage you haven't cleared. With the new growth system, your officer's abilities will increase, and you'll be able to find the elusive ultimate weapons.
Free Mode
Choose one of the 20 officers* and a stage from the 20 tales! One of the 20 characters is a new officer (P9).
*If you have transferred data from Samurai Warriors, you can play through stages you have already cleared from the beginning.
*Even if you don't transfer data, you can choose one of the remaining 19 officers, excluding the new officer.
In Free mode, you can see all mission events
