Is Dynasty Warriors 8 or 9 better?

This game fixes most of the design issues that Dynasty Warriors 9 had and it's a better strategy experience than Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires. It's also much more stable. Even on the Switch, I haven't had single crash. However, there are so many other better Warriors games you can play right now.

Which Dynasty Warrior is best?

5 Best Dynasty Warriors Empires Games of All Time, Ranked.
Dynasty Warriors 4: Empires | Playstation 2 Trailer..
Dynasty Warriors 9: Empires - Release Date Trailer | PS5, PS4..
DYNASTY WARRIORS 5: EMPIRES OPENING INTRO..
Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires Trailer..
Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires - Opening Intro [HD].

Is Dynasty Warriors 8 better than 7?

TL DR: DW8 is somewhat 'enhanced edition' to DW7. UPDATED WEASPON SYSTEM,ACTION SYSTEM,FREE MODE, LU BU'S STORY, 17 MORE CHARACTERS, Alternate story in Story mode (feature of DW8); If you are interested to Story in DW franchise, recommend to have DW7 a try.

Is Dynasty Warriors worth watching?

Dynasty Warriors definitely has a lot of the things common to the wu xia genre that make it enjoyable. Dynasty Warriors could have benefitted from an expanded runtime and a stronger screenplay, though its high-octane action sequences and performances will undoubtedly be a draw for audiences.
