STORY MODE & FREE MODE (UNMIXED)

As a standalone game, SWXL's Story mode tells of the tales of four legendary
warriors. In SWXL's unmixed Free mode, gamers can play the new Story mode
stages using any of the 15 original characters or SWXL's four new
characters.

The game's four new playable characters are Tadakatsu Honda- Loyal Samurai,
Warrior Princess Inahime, Hideyoshi Hashiba- Unifier of Japan, and Warlord
Yoshimoto Imagawa!

Tadakatsu Honda - Loyal Samurai
The mighty Honda emerged from 57 battles completely unscathed. One of
Ieyasu's most loyal retainers, Honda, at the Battle of Komaki-Nagakute, was
separated from Ieyasu's main army. Honda and his unit single-handedly faced
Hideyoshi's army, thereby proving his inexhaustible bravery. Praised for
his qualities by allies and enemies alike, Honda's main weapon is the
legendary Iron Spear.

Warrior Princess Inahime
An imposing warrior, and daughter of Tadakatsu Honda, Inahime is a proud and
graceful woman possessing ancient Japanese grace and values. Though the bow
is her main weapon, her splendid movements and beauty are sufficient to fell
almost any enemy.

CHARGE THE NEW BATTLEFIELD OF KOMAKI-NAGAKUTE

SWXL includes the original 18 maps plus the new Battlefield of
Komaki-Nagakute, for a total of 19 maps.

STORY MODE & FREE MODE (REMIXED)

When Samurai Warriors is remixed with SWXL, the new SWXL characterizations
will appear in the stories of other characters. For example, if you play
Nobunaga's Tale in the original Samurai Warriors, at the Battle of
Okehazama, Tadakatsu Honda will appear with his new design rather than in a
standard officer uniform. Honda will also have his new XL abilities!

MUST-SEE REMIX FEATURES

New Vs. Mode Stages, New Survival Mode Course
Along with three new stages in Vs mode, SWXL includes a new Survival mode
stage and two additional difficulty settings.

Redesigned 2P Musou Attack! Based on user feedback, each player now has a
separate Musou attack gauge.

New 6th Weapon Level, Power Up Items & Skills
SWXL includes a new weapon level for all 19 characters. Furthermore, in the
game's new weapon system, players can power-up their weapons by paying a
blacksmith or by purchasing items.

SWXL includes many opportunities to find and gather new power up items and
exclusive skills to boost character growth.

Modified Character Growth System
With SWXL's new Character growth system, the old max levels from the
original Samurai Warriors are obsolete. If a player finishes Samurai
Warriors with a "maxed" character, playing the remixed game will continue to
raise the character's ability levels.

Bonus Encyclopedia
SWXL's in-depth Encyclopedia includes detailed information about the
historical events and warriors depicted in the game.
