SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 from Koei Tecmo is a hack and slash game originally released in 2014. And now the much expanded enhanced version is here with SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 DX. There was also SAMURAI WARRIORS 4-II that came to Steam in 2015, which was more of a side-story with DX directly building on 4.

This version includes over 150 previously released DLC items like costumes, weapons, editable parts, scenarios, background music, and more. Plus it has full Steam Deck Verified support right out of the gate. This is basically the final definitive edition of the game.

SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 DX includes everything fans have been craving to play in one complete edition. In addition to the main “Story Mode” featuring “regional stories” and the “story of unification”, the DX version allows players to choose from a variety of different modes, including “Chronicle Mode”, a mode that enables players to travel around the SAMURAI WARRIORS world, accomplishing quests in various regions while meeting officers and collecting items. In addition, players can now discover over 50 playable officers in SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 DX along with exhilarating action systems such as “Hyper Attack” and “Rage” as they journey to the heart of Japan’s Sengoku period.

SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 DX features:

  • Over 150 downloadable pieces of content – Downloadable content initially available on other platforms at the original release of SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 has been integrated, including scenarios, costumes and weapons.
  • Optimized for PC – The graphics settings can be adjusted to match the PC specifications of each player. Mouse and keyboard controls are supported and key assignments can be changed. Most controllers are supported.
  • SAMURAI WARRIORS 4 DX is now available in English in addition to Japanese. The language can be changed in the settings.

Since it's Steam Deck Verified, there should be no problems playing it on desktop Linux with Proton. For the verification Valve picked the new Proton 9.0.

Check it out on the Steam page.

As much as I tend to keep to Nintendo and PlayStation for these games, the fact that so much DLC is included makes me consider buying this and Warriors Orochi on Steam on sale. If they'd ever get to a good sale price, that is. It's always some crappy sale, and I can just get a used physical copy for cheap on console.

Oh, and no Remote Play Together either. So Koei-Tecmo can go piss off unless it's cheap.
