With high controversy, the second DLC pack for Dynasty Warriors 9; Additional Weapons Pack is out now on PS Store, Steam Store and XBOX Live Store. With it releasing three weapons that were originally deemed “Too unrealistic” to make the cut in the base game, you will now be able to enjoy the Emei Piercers for Wang Yi, Sword and Hook for Xu Shu and of course, Zhang He’s famed Claws.

Along with those three weapons (and receiving their own movesets and actions), there are a ton of new High Tier weapons for every other type in the game for you to craft.

This just leaves us now to wait on Summer for the Additional Scenario Pack, which will be the last for the Season Pass and will include four “new” characters and their own stories.

You can pick up this pack up for £9.49/€11.99/$11.99 on it’s own or get it for free if you have purchased the Season Pass.

The first pack of the Dynasty Warriors 9 Season Pass DLC is out now worldwide! The Hideaway Customisation Pack, which offers a new Scenario known as “The Ordeal” which incorporates Five missions, which upon completion will reward you with various new Hideaway exterior models and furniture pieces to pimp out your Hideaways!

Season Pass holders can download this pack now for free, or you can buy the pack individually for £6.49/‎€7.99/$7.99 on the Playstation Store, Xbox Store or Steam.

Check the list attached below for more details on exactly what the DLC pack has to offer:

Hideaway Customisation Pack

  • Added Exterior Models

    • -Jianning-Style Hideaway – An exterior model that captures the essence of Jianning.
    -Camp-Style Hideaway – An exterior model that captures the essence of a battlefield camp.
    -Palace-Style Hideaway – An exterior model that captures the essence of a gorgeous palace.
    -On-the-Water Hideaway – An exterior model of a Hideaway built on the water.
    -High-Rise-Style Hideaway – An exterior model of a high-rise Hideaway that is tall like a tower.

  • Added Furniture Models

    • -New Functional Table and Chairs – A table with chairs on which you can sit and meet with visiting officers.
    -Candlestick – A light fixture that can be placed on a table.
    -Blacksmith’s Shelf – Allows you to craft gems and accessories at a Hideaway.
    -Cook’s Shelf – Allows you to cook new dishes at a Hideaway.
    -Fish Preserve – Allows you to regularly obtain fish-type materials.
    -Flowerpot – Allows you to regularly obtain plant-type materials.
    -Peach Tree – A peach tree from which petals flutter down is placed outside your Hideaway.

    -Stable – A place where you can keep a horse. Horses kept at a stable will develop with time.
    -Prayer Bench – For a short time, the weather will be changed arbitrarily.

    Naturally, Japan also received a bit of an extra bonus DLC along with all of this, being an exclusive new outfit for Da Qiao based on Ai-chan, the popular mascot of SIE Taiwan. Initially it was exclusive to the Taiwan release only, but now Japanese players can download this costume for free if they hold the Season Pass. For us Westerners, it is unlikely to see this happen, or perhaps it’ll come out far later as a Paid option.

    The next DLC Pack; the Additional Weapons pack is scheduled to release sometime in May.

    Dynasty Warriors 9 Season Pass Schedule Announced!

    Dynasty Warriors 9 has been a rather mixed bag with peoples opinions, but that hasn’t deterred KOEI Tecmo and Omega Force in following through with more content via their Season Pass. With that, they have announced their release date schedule for the three content packs, and they are as follows:

    Hideaway Customisation Pack – April 2018
    Five Hideaway exteriors.
    Ten new furniture pieces.
    Five trial missions that can be taken repeatedly.

    Additional Weapons Pack – May 2018
    Three new weapon types with new actions (move sets).
    Three models of high-levelled weapons.

    Additional Scenario Pack – Summer 2018
    The unique NPCs; Xiahou Ji, Dong Bai, Hua Xiong, and Yuan Shu, will be made as playable characters. They will also have their own action gameplay (move sets), scenarios, and events.

    So there you have it. The meat of the DLC content won’t be arriving until sometime this Summer, but we have some new content injections happening both this and next month. It is likely we won’t find out the exact release dates until the week they are planned to arrive, but we will be sure to report on it!

    Note that you can purchase the Season Pass now and get all these packs as soon as they release, or buy them individually.

    What are your thoughts on the DLC? Do you hope they end up adding more packs at a later date? Let us know in the comments!

    Dynasty Warriors 9 Season Pass details!

    As it was revealed back when the announcement for the Japanese release date for Dynasty Warriors 9 came, it was known a Season Pass will be up for purchase alongside it. But what does this Season Pass actually offer? Will it be much different to the way older Dynasty Warriors game titles have done their DLC? Let’s delve a little deeper, first with the official details of what comes with the Season Pass:

    Season Pass

    Additional Scenario Pack
    -NPCs Xiahouji, Dong Bai, Hua Xiong, and Yuan Shu become playable.
    -Additional scenarios, events, and actions for each officer.

    Additional Weapons Pack
    -Addition of three new weapon (action) systems.
    -Addition of three high level weapon models for each weapon.

    Hideaway Customisation Pack
    -Addition of exclusive scenarios where you can obtain exteriors and furniture.
    -Addition of 10 furniture models.
    -Addition of five models that change exteriors and interiors.

    Season Pass Bonus
    -Four Jewels.
    -12 materials that can be used for advanced weapon / cooking / item development.

    Each of the packs will be sold separately also, but naturally bought outside of the Season Pass would cost more. We have no time frame on when these “Packs” will release yet, but it’s doubtful that they will take too long judging by the content on offer.

    Is it worth picking up? That is still in the air, as we don’t know just how many new scenarios will be available (We are sure Zhong Hui’s Rebellion will be one of them, as DLC-baited in certain endings), or how extensive the new storylines for the four unlocked characters will be. It seems to be a little more content heavy to what we are use to, but this Season Pass isn’t going anywhere. When the DLC (or more details) start to drop you can still get it for that inclusive bundled price.

    The Season Pass costs £19.99/€24.99/$24.99, and purchasing will give you the Season Pass Bonus set straight away.

    We also want to make a quick note that our review is still in progress and will be ready very soon so stay tuned for that!
