Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires
Nintendo Switch · 2022
About this game
Dynasty Warriors is a 3D fighting game steeped in traditional Chinese history and mythology, its characters being warriors from the Three Kingdoms era, a setting that was used by Koei before in their Romance of the Three Kingdoms series .
Over 2000 years ago, Guang-Wu revived the Han Dynasty in China.

Wars and chaos follow for centuries after, because of regional conflicts, rival dynasties, and bureaucratic problems.
An insurgent group, the Yellow Turban Rebels, roams China killing government officials.
The current Emperor Shao is protected by troops raised by the nobles of the land - but each noble has their own plan to gain power.
The fighting is based on martial arts and weapons (and the tactics thereof) rather than focusing on combos, special moves, or other modern fighting-game embellishments.
The characters can be chosen from four groups, each representing one of the main kingdoms - Shu, Wei, and Wu, as well as a miscellaneous-character 4th group.
About Nintendo Switch
Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.
Gamevaro tracks Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NSW release dates back to 2022.
