Gameplay System[]
Fever Drive[]
When player reaches every 500 combos, Player will automatically turn into Drive State for a period of time. This fever drive doesn't consume the Sengoku Drive in stock.
Priming[]
Some of character's skills will turn the enemy into Prime State. In this state, the enemy's health gauge will turn into yellow and double your hit count on every attack for a few seconds. The character skill that can cause priming will be display in a yellow text.
This feature is inspired by the new mechanic added in Devil Kings, a localized version of Sengoku Basara.
Game Modes[]
Story Mode[]
Very much like Sengoku Basara 2's Story Mode, players pick a character and go through his/her story. However, unlike Sengoku Basara 2, the player can only choose among 3 (newly playable) characters. Kojuro Katakura, Nagamasa Azai and Oichi are the story choices. The player will receive the third costume on the characters.
Side Story Mode[]
A new mode added in Sengoku Basara 2 Heroes. Side Story Mode plays like Story Mode, but the difference is that it is shorter, comprising of only 3 stages each. The available characters for this mode are also limited. Kotaro Fuma, Keiji Maeda, Masamune Date, Yukimura Sanada, and Motochika Chosokabe have Side Stories. Finishing this mode grants each of the selectable characters their third costume.
Conquest Mode[]
Conquest Mode is still like in Sengoku Basara 2. However this time, it features a new (random) battle and can now be played with 2 players. Finishing it will still unlock the player's second costume.
Free Mode[]
Like in previous Sengoku BASARA games, Free Mode lets players play any unlocked stage as any character. Stages, including exclusive stages, from both Sengoku Basara 2 and Heroes can be played here once unlocked.
Tournament Mode[]
Tournament Mode from Sengoku Basara 2 is back, but with a lot of differences. There are now 2 type of tournament: Grand Tournament and Ultimate Grand Tournament. Like Conquest Mode, this mode can also be played with 2 players. Players now choose 2 characters for this mode and play it like a tag battle for one player and split-screen co-op for 2 players. If one character gets KO'ed, they can be revived by the other player if co-op or if in single player, the other character takes their place and gets revived in the next round. The enemies fought in each round are also different. The roulette feature that appears after clearing each round is removed for Heroes. Players are still awarded the best weapon and armor for the characters used by winning 100 and 50 rounds respectively, and can still save every 10 rounds to keep the progress.
Grand Tournament plays very much like Sengoku Basara 2's Tournament Mode. In this tournament, there are challenges which the player can do while they are fighting through the tournament. Completing them rewards players with gold and a rice ball, and completing all 60 of them unlocks an achievement. The EXP gained from clearing the rounds are divided among the 2 characters used.
Ultimate Grand Tournament is mainly the same as Grand Tournament. However, instead of getting EXP for clearing rounds, gold is rewarded. There is also a time limit which refills and accumulates upon clearing each round.
Versus Mode[]
Another new mode added in this game. Versus Mode puts 2 characters against each other in one of 8 types of competitions. It should also be noted that this is the only mode in which the AI can use a Basara Attack.
