Publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Omega Force have announced 10 new playable characters for Samurai Warriors 5<\/em>, who were previously non-playable characters, bringing the total playable characters count to 37. <\/span><\/p>\n
These characters feature unique graphics, but since they are supporting cast members and not part of the main storyline, they do not have the unique \u201cPower Attacks\u201d and other features that the previously announced 27 characters employ in battle.<\/p>\n
The newly announced characters are as follows:<\/p>\n
