Usually the mission consists of taking down one or more enemy generals, but there tend to be other objectives along the way to shake things up a bit. A massive beat-em-up where your heroes take on hundreds of grunts at once, mowing them down with relative ease while you make your way through large arena style battlegrounds to take down your targets. After spending some time with Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition on my Switch, I can understand why the long running series has such a following overseas.Įnemy grunts are but leaves in the wind against your generals and their might blades!ĭynasty Warriors, at its core, is a beat-em-up (or a “Musou” game for the initiated, as the games are called so overseas). I do, however, understand that the series has a very dedicated fan following in the west. Sure, my wife and I logged a ton of co-op hours into the Wii U version of Hyrule Warriors, but that’s about as deep as I’ve gotten into the series before now and that’s admittedly not very deep at all considering we sunk a lot of time into a spinoff title. I personally prefer B being jump however.I’ll admit, I’m not the hugest Dynasty Warriors fan on the planet. If this bothers you in gameplay, just simply swap the buttons. I made jump B, as it's logical when exiting menus to press B instead of A. This should fix the issue.Ī: Because the confirm button is bound to the Muosu Attack, and the Jump Button is the designated back button. Q: I did that, and it still won't detect it!Ī: Check your Windows Device Manager and make sure Windows is detecting it.Ī: Try right clicking the controller in the device driver and uninstall then reinstall the device driver. The best fix for this is to restart your game.

Q: The Game isn't detecting my controller!Ī: Make sure to power on or plug in the controller BEFORE starting the game as the game might not recognize the controller if the controller is powered on after the game is started. Once this is set up, the game works perfectly and is a lot of fun! Now let's address some controller issues that are common. I hope this helps anyone who's having trouble with the controller in this game.
