Sengoku Musou 3 Moushouden Wii Plus A Dream

The game was released in 2006 for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360, and ported to Microsoft Windows in 2008.

Like the Dynasty Warriors series, an Empires expansion was released as well, and an Xtreme Legends expansion followed on August 23, 2007 in Japan.

The game, alongside its two expansions, Xtreme Legends and Empires also receive a HD-enhanced port for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita under the name Sengoku Musou 2 with Moushouden Empires: HD Version.

For example, Oichi can either summon new soldiers to the battlefield or improve the combat abilities of nearby allies, Yukimura Sanada can either whistle to call his mount to his side or perform a flaming charge, and Ginchiyo Tachibana can either 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.

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 from.

To choose a mission the player must pay a fee to perform the mission, though there are certain missions that do not require a fee.

After that, the player enters the castle, and a mission will be triggered.

After succeeding in the mission, the stairway to the next floor opens, and the player will be able to proceed to the next floor where there will be another mission to complete in order to proceed to the next floor, and so on.

Each story contains five stages (except for Ieyasu Tokugawa and Mitsunari Ishida, who both have six stages), plus a Dream Stage or Gaiden (Side Quest) in the Japanese version, that effectively asks what if.

For example, Yukimura Sanadas DreamGaiden 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 Mitsuhide Akechi and Nobunaga Oda both have endings where they won their historically final battles and survived, their Dream stages have them mopping up their gathered opposition.

Up to four players can participate in this mode, and each player has to choose a character.

The games goal is to collect the requested amount of gold (depending on the players settings).

At the beginning of the game, three flags for each player will be divided in the map, and players can earn gold and raise their ranks by collecting their respective flags and returning to their home square.

Additionally, a player can buy territories on the map, or challenge another player for the control of a territory.

There are six types of challenges in the game: Annihilate (requires the players to defeat as many enemies as possible), Chase (requires the players to defeat as many fleeing Fire Ninjas as possible), Destroy (requires the players to destroy as many boulders as possible), Race (requires the players to break through the doors to reach the end before the opponent does), Reveal (requires the players to uncover as many Sky Ninjas as possible), and Steal (requires the players to collect as much gold as possible).

Two returning characters, Okuni and Ranmaru Mori do not have their own story mode, although they still can be played in Free Mode, Survival Mode and Sugoroku (Including Mercenary Mode).

Similar to previous games, the game also features two unique NPCs: Katsuie Shibata and Kojiro Sasaki that can be unlocked as unplayable special bodyguards.
