Dynasty Warriors 4: Empires is a strategic variant of Dynasty Warriors 4, mixing it with gameplay similar to Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The heart of the game, the campaign mode, begins with choosing one of 24 regions and 42 rulers (custom characters can be created). Starting with a small kingdom, the ultimate goal is to conquer all the others. Each turn, the player has a choice of 4 different governance options (brought to your attention by your generals) followed by a single action decision. These actions usually include invading or defending a specific province or helping an allied empire with those same actions.

In any battle, whether offensive or defensive, the player chooses up to three generals and three lieutenants and their troops to form the army. Soldiers populate the battlefield with different ranks and styles (normal, archers, guards, witches, and 2 types of siege weapons) as well as horses that can be ridden. The player, in a 3rd person perspective, can guard, parry, attack, charge, shoot arrows, jump, announce, or charge to unleash a special musou attack. All generals and lieutenants are displayed on the map and can be attacked or challenged. Enemy characters who are defeated enough times in a battle can be challenged to a duel. The obvious purpose of the battlefield is to control fortresses at strategic points that will make it easier to defend or reach a certain area or an opponent. At all times, these fortress areas are under the control of either side. They are earned by defeating all opposing forces in the immediate area. Strongholds regularly spawn health recovery items. The winner of an offensive action can gain territory and capture enemy soldiers. Each province under an empire's control earns that empire 100 gold each turn which can be spent on various government decisions.
