With that many enemies on screen all with their own animations and with me killing them all in the span of a five second combo, there is some slowdown in frame rate. Easily 200 enemies are standing in front of me all there for the slashing. During game play, the sheer amount of enemies on screen at one time is staggering.

There is also a new challenge mode that has the player competing in special game types like knocking enemies off a bridge for points, or a special boss rush mode that has players taking on numerous enemies and stronger foes while trying to survive.

Another addition is the weapon upgrading through fusing multiple weapons to share the stats of said weapons with a single one. In fact, it seems Xtreme Legends wants players to grind even more in this mode for numerous things. That means a ton of grinding in Ambition mode. Back to the grind.Īmbition mode now allows the player to take up to three bodyguards into a mission, but only when the character has a certain amount of leadership.

His story is slightly shorter than the other clans’, but there are branching story arcs that allow players to play though historical events and “what if” moments depending on what the player does during missions.Īlong with Lu Bu’s story, there are also new characters for each clan.
