Koei Tecmo updated the official Japanese website for Warriors Orochi 4, detailing the game’s base system as well as the two characters that were revealed earlier this week, Ares and Odin. We’ve compiled the new information below (credit to Gematsu for the translation):

Ares
The god of war and destruction. Since he is the oldest son born to Zeus and his wife Hera, he is extremely prideful and arrogant towards humans and low-ranking gods. He believes gods should have strict control over humans, and considers his father’s behavior of getting along with humans to be shameful.

 

Odin
The god that rules Asgard. Although predicted to perish during Ragnarok, the war of the gods, Odin acquired all power and wisdom to change fate and survive. From that point, he began to display an abnormal attachment to power.

Base System

At your base, you can use the items you acquired in battle, as well as strengthen officers and weapons.

Officer Strengthening

In addition to leveling up an officer with EXP acquired in battle, you can also learn skills by using the Skill Points you get by leveling up.

Weapon Forging

Assign attributes such as fire to your weapon slots using material items. New slots can also be added. Additionally, weapons acquired in battle can be disassembled and sold, and used to strengthen your base or other weapons.

Base Strengthening

Strengthen your base. Acquire skills that raise the abilities of all characters, as well as those that expand the functionality of your base.

Training Journey

Send characters on a “Training Journey” and they will grow. By acquiring base skills, you can increase destinations and the number of teams that can be sent out to train. Characters that return from a Training Journey will bring back Sacred Treasures and weapons as spoils of war.
