Warriors Abyss, the roguelite spinoff of the popular Dynasty Warriors series, has just dropped a new free update that adds four new characters from the Ninja Gaiden series.
The newcomers in DLC 5 include series protagonist Ryu Hayabusa, as well as Ayane, Rachel, and Momoji. These fighters help to pad out the game’s roster of over 100s characters from popular series such as Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors, and Atelier.
To celebrate the collaboration, the game is currently 20% off on Steam (now £15.99) for a limited period until 10th July.
We had the opportunity to review Warriors: Abyss when it was released in February and described it as being a “perfectly competent rogue that’s worth taking for a spin.” You can check out our full review for this Musou roguelite spin-off here.
