Samurai Warriors 3 is a hack-and-slash video game developed by Omega Force and published by Tecmo Koei for the Wii. It is the third installment in the Samurai Warriors series. The game was released in Japan in December 2009 and internationally in 2010 by Nintendo.

Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo attended the game's Press Conference in 2009, to present a new mode in the game based on the Famicom Disk System game The Mysterious Murasame Castle. Versions for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable without this mode were released only in Japan.

A sequel, Samurai Warriors 4, was released in March 2014.
