Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends^{[Note 1]} is a singleplayer and multiplayer third-person hack and slash game developed by Omega Force and published by Koei Tecmo. It is a part of the Dynasty Warriors franchise within the larger Warriors series.

The main game was released in Japan^{[Note 2]} for PlayStation 3 on February 28, 2013. Its expansion pack was released in Japan for PlayStation 3 on November 28, 2013. A bundle of the main game and expansion pack was also released in Japan for PlayStation 3.

The same bundle also released for PC as Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition^{[Note 3]} but with extra content such as the collaboration DLCs. Although the PC port was marketed as ported directly from the PlayStation 4 version, users found out that it was based on the PlayStation 3 port with shaders enhancement from the PlayStation 4 port.^[1] The game also does not include the online co-op mode which only exists in the console version. It was released in North America and Europe on May 13, 2014, and in Japan and Taiwan on May 23, 2014.

The game was also released as Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition^{[Note 4]} on Microsoft Store on December 7, 2018.^[2]^[3]

The Steam version of the game will unlock the counterpart DLC of the Steam version Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires, vice versa and retroactively, if it exists, for purchased DLC. Users reported that the game loading may freeze on Windows 8 and later.

Issues fixed

Loading freezes on Windows 8 and later

Freezes on loading screens on Windows 8 and later. The workaround for this is running the game in windowed mode and setting the executable to run in Windows 98 compatibility mode so that it only uses a single CPU core.^{[citation needed]} This workaround is reported to not be perfect, though, and may not work for all players.
