smile.gif smile.gif Samurai Warriors 2 (Sengoku Musou 2 in Japan) is a sequel to the original Samurai Warriors, created by Koei and Omega Force. The game was released for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360.

This game was first released in 2006. Like the Dynasty Warriors series, an Empires expansion was released as well. Koei finally confirmed that an Xtreme Legends expansion will be released August 23, 2007 in Japan, no release dates have been confirmed for USA or Europe as of yet.The gameplay of Samurai Warriors 2 builds upon the first Samurai Warriors by adding new characters, and also new features such as the removal of the traditional range attacks in favor of the addition of two unique special abilities that differ from character to character. For example Oichi can summon new soldiers to the battlefield or improve the combat abilities of nearby allies, Sanada Yukimura can whistles to call his mount to his side or perform a flaming charge, and Tachibana Ginchiyo can increase the strength of her weapon or summon lightning to stun nearby enemy soldiers. In addition, characters movesets can evolve in a larger variety as they level up, elaborating on either their combo, charge or special attacks, with the progression of each character being different from the next. This leads to the characters having 1 of 3 different button combos.

A returning element from the original Samurai Warriors is the Survival Mode (Infinite Castle in the Japanese version). In this mode, the player chooses a character and fights through an endless castle. After choosing the character, 4 random missions will be given to the player to choose. To choose a mission the player must pay a fee to perform the mission (Certain missions doesn't require a fee to enter the castle). After that, the player enters the castle, and a mission will trigger, after succeeding in the mission the stairs to the next floor opens, and the player will be able to proceed to the next floor to complete another mission to proceed, and so on.

Characters in the game (except for Mori Ranmaru and Okuni) have their own stories. Each story contains five stages (except for Tokugawa Ieyasu and Ishida Mitsunari, who have six stages), plus a "Dream Stage" or "Gaiden" (Side Quest) in the Japanese version, that effectively asks "what if". For example, Sanada Yukimura's Dream/Gaiden stage (Battle of Sekigahara) puts him into a battle that took place historically between his fourth and fifth stages (Ueda Castle and Osaka Castle respectively). Correspondingly, since Akechi Mitsuhide and Oda Nobunaga both have endings where they won their historically final battles and survived, their Dream stages have them mopping up their gathered opposition.

This game also contains a Sugoroku mini-game as an additional feature. In this mode, each player chooses a character. The game's goal is to collect the requested amount of gold (depending on your settings). During the beginning, three flags for each player will be divided in the map, by collecting the player's flags and returning to the home square the player's rank levels up, thus raising the player's gold. Additionally, the player can buy territories in the map or challenge another player for the control of a territory. There are six types of challenges in the game: Annihilate, which requires defeating as many enemies as possible, Chase, which requires defeating as many fleeing Fire Ninjas as possible, Destroy, which requires destroying as many boulders as possible, Race, which requires breaking through the doors to reach the end before the opponent does, Reveal, which requires uncovering as many Sky Ninjas as possible, and Steal, which requires collecting as many gold as possible.

The CAW (Create-A-Warrior) mode from the original Samurai Warriors has been removed, however, it was reintroduced in Samurai Warriors 2 Empires.
