Well, I meant a Zelda game. I should have specified. Unless you want to count the individual Links in Four Swords and various helper characters, it's pretty much always been one.If by "the type of game this is" you mean a Dynasty Warriors game, it's actually an all time low in playable characters. Even the very first dynasty Warriors game back in 1997 had more. And all the dynasty warrior crossovers before have had more than 9 playable characters too. One of the things these games are known for is having tons of characters.
9 might just be the starting roster in the non demo version, with more characters to unlock.
