Role in the Series[]
Samurai Warriors 2[]
Both of the main Shikoku campaigns premiere in Samurai Warriors 2: Xtreme Legends. Motochika's version of the battle has his home heavily surrounded by Hideyoshi's army. Taking place during the second campaign, he rallies his men to defy surrender and fight against the large Hashiba army. Reinforcements lead by Hiroie Kikkawa threaten the main camp in the north west. Fighting them back, Mitsunari Ishida backs up the Hashiba army with additional troops and cannons from the sea. To counter, Motochika leads a defence captain to return fire with the northern fort's cannons. He does the same with the southern fort, even when Ieyasu and Naomasa Ii threaten the defence captain's safety. Sinking both the Hashiba and Mōri navy reinforcements, Sakon Shima and Mitsunari charge for Motochika's main camp. Toshiie Maeda arrives with more troops in Hideyoshi's defense. Although Motochika wins the battle, he agrees to surrender after the battle for the good of his men.
The Hashiba version acts as the first campaign, in which Hideyoshi decides to deal with Motochika first before avenging Nobunaga. Hideyoshi first orders the army to secure the landing point for their reinforcements. Motochika counters by blasting his cannons from land and sea. To prevent more damage to their troops, an order for claiming the north and southern cannon forts commences. Capturing one of the forts allows the Hashiba army to redirect the cannons towards the Chōsokabe navy. Once the enemy ships sink, a full scale assault begins. About midway on the field, the Mouiri decide to befriend Motochika for a common goal and ambush Hideyoshi's troops on three points on the map.
Nobunaga acts as the battle's commander during Motochika's dream version of the stage, which is a romanticized version of the first campaign.

While it isn't featured as a stage battle in Samurai Warriors 3, Shikoku is given a brief mention in Hideyoshi's story.
Samurai Warriors 4[]
