Hundun has a very unique role in Warriors Orochi 4. In other stages, he is reduced to a mere frontline unit. He is later deflected off by Jia Xu's strategies at Jiange but returns in another scenario in Ultimate where this time he is tricked by Yuan Shao at Shizugatake yet is still prepared for the outcome and is further strengthened by sorcery, acting as one of the commanders of the stage. His generic counterpart Hammerjaw also has a large role in Warriors Orochi 3 where he serves as an advisor to Yuan Shao, manipulating and corrupting him so the Orochi army can use his considerable forces to their cause. Possibly due to a glitch, he makes a random appearance in the DLC stage 'Defense of Itsukushima'. When joining the coalition camp, he tends to forge bonds with demonic characters and isn't outright nihilistic, as evidenced by conversations with Dodomeki and Gyūki, giving them fashion advice. When he is defeated, he merely goes back to sleep instead of dying finding the challenge amusing. He sets up lots of challenges involving dragon portals and keeps the miasma of the Orochi world flowing, allowing for greater evil. His character incarnation only appears as the final boss in gauntlet mode and is thought to be the reason why worlds collide and how other characters keep coming into the world Orochi has created. In the fourth game, he can be unlocked by defeating him on the special Pandemonium difficulty after clearing the game once. His playable counterpart is designed by Akihiro Yamada. The English localization named him Hammerjaw, a type of jumping spider. Either version of Hundun is considered one of the Four Fiends of Chinese mythology.īefore his playable Warriors Orochi persona, his name was used in Asian ports for a generic officer that shared Dodomeki's design. A fickle and sometimes described as idiotic beast, it despises siding with good people, loves to be with those of evil. It bites on its tail in a fetal position, repeatedly turning in a circle, seeming to smile as its face rolls toward the sky.


One of his bestial counterparts has a canine-like body with long hair with eyes that could see, but with ears that could not hear. Hundun (onyomi: Konton) is a mythological Chinese figure long considered the source of all chaos.
