[edit]Gameplay

Samurai Warriors: Chronicles introduces several new features not included in prior Samurai Warriors games. While the top screen displays the main game, the bottom screen is used to display maps, KO's, and mission data. A player can switch between four characters during battle, switching the screen to their respective locations as well.[2] Players can also create new characters to be used in gameplay.[3]
[edit]Development

Samurai Warriors: Chronicles was first announced during E3 2010 as Samurai Warriors 3D as a part of the Nintendo 3DS lineup. The game was subsequently renamed Samurai Warriors: Chronicles, which occurred during Tokyo Game Show 2010.[4]
[edit]Characters

Every playable character from Samurai Warriors 3 Z/Xtreme Legends will be playable in this game[5]. There is a story mode that follows all the events in Samurai Warriors, there are no separate story lines for game characters however game characters that star in the battle can be played. The two new officers, the main Hero and the main Heroine, are brand new original characters to the series, fully customizable by the players. The player will use either of them for all of the game (unless they replay the stage in which case all unlocked characters can be chosen), while switching control to the other returning officers during battles.
