![]() I appreciate that Dynasty Warriors titles have never been short of content – it’s usually fatigue that puts a stop to proceeding rather than the sight of the end credits – but Gundam 3’s loot drops, customization options and power upgrades all serve to make it a consistently entertaining ride that really captures that collect everything addictiveness enjoyed by so many of today’s most popular RPGs.īeyond the ability to customise and upgrade your own mech and pilot, the ability to create some very outlandish mechs of your own design via the Gundam schematic loot drops make the whole experience extremely moreish, while the strategic gameplay keeps the somewhat rudimentary core mechanics feeling fresh for the duration. With the aforementioned 52 playable characters and a campaign that spans numerous time lines and literally hundreds of battles, there is more than enough to keep fans busy for months on end. Although the relatively sprightly missions and quick fire gameplay make it an immediately accessible experience, it’s only through committed play that the nuances and depth that set this release apart from its predecessors truly makes themselves apparent. Like any Dynasty Warriors title, Gundam 3 is a game that demands a pretty hefty time commitment to get the best from it. While I can confirm that the plot will remain just that for all but the most hardcore of fans, I can also confirm that subtle refinements to the Dynasty Warriors formula, and a raft of improvements over the already impressive Gundam 2, serve to make Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3 easily the finest release in the spin-off series, and one of the very finest Musou titles to date. The thing is, unless you’re a fan of the series, or the anime upon which it is based, Gundam 3’s gameplay will look very samey at a glance, while its plot (including 52 playable characters) can certainly appear somewhat indecipherable to the uninitiated. So, how does one go about reviewing the latest title in the long running Dynasty Warriors franchise? Does one accept its now niche appeal and aim the review squarely at the hardcore devotees? How about a review appealing to those who lost interest as the series grew stale and failed to keep up with modern tastes and trends? I could even have a punt at reeling in those who never gave the series a chance in the first place? What to do, aye? Well, if I can, I’d like very much to aim my review at all of the above and everyone in between, as Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3, the third title in the anime/Musou spin off, has enough up its sleeve to appeal to just about any gamer out there………well, most gamers anyway.
