▍Gameplay
Players will be able to follow the original plot of the “Fist of the North Star” in the smartphone game, as well as the character stories. It shares a similar gameplay with other “Dynasty Warriors” titles. Players have to battle against different enemies, who come in considerably larger hordes.
