The first real Warriors Orochi 4 details have hit the web thanks to Famitsu, with the publication revealing that the upcoming hack and slasher will boast 170 playable characters. For those who don't know, the Orochi series has always prided itself on having gigantic character rosters, but this is a new record.

As you'd expect, the title will feature characters from across both Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors. It'll also play host to a number of guest characters, although there's no word on who's made the cut just yet. Previously, the likes of Ryu Hayabusa of Ninja Gaiden and Kasumi of Dead or Alive played a part, so you can probably expect to see them again.

Warriors Orochi 4 is set to launch later this year on PlayStation 4, in both Japan and the West.
