Take the two most brutal times in Chinese and Japanese history, cross them over with some multiversal snake magic and you Warriors Orochi. Both the Dynasty and Samurai Warriors game series tell the same basic story time and time again and while a lot of people might have issue with it, there is a charm to seeing what gets changed and get interpreted with each iteration. Warriors Orochi decides to throw that idea to the wayside and create an original crossover plot ala Super Robot Wars. It's fun to see how characters interact with the other franchise and even those within the same franchise tossing aside some of their differences in order to combat a greater threat. As the series goes on things get more chaotic but at the same time it's amazing seeing these warriors form some of the most violent time periods in human history do their damndest to fight for a peaceful and better tomorrow and honesty they get pretty close. While Warriors Orochi 1 did get a PC port and I would love to see that, Orochi Z is the first two games together in one package. While it never came to the West the original releases Oroch 1 and 2 did so it shouldn't be too hard to get an English localization when the work is already done outside if putting it into the game. Even if they don't add the English dub, I'm sure most fans of the series would like to see this game finally come Westward.

Warriors orochi must be my favorite KOEI saga, i like it more than Dynasty and Samurai musou, But sadly this game is nowhere! it's very difficult to access, plus the game is only in Japanese.
This game has a PC version that's Japanese language only, so all you'd need is to get the PC files and translate them. Also this is the only Orochi game that was never released outside of Japan and it has extra content not in Warriors Orochi 1 & 2.
This upgraded and expanded version of Warriors Orochi 1 and 2 never got released outside of Japan, and that really sucks, because this is a great package that improves the 360 version's up-res'd PS2 visuals. It has a PC port, so hopefully KT finds the time to translate and release it, so all the Orochi games can be available.
