Dynasty Warriors 9 Announced

KOEI Tecmo America has officially announced the next chapter in the ever-popular hack and slasher, Dynasty Warriors 9. The brand new installment of Omega Force’s iconic series is going even further by breaking the boundaries of previous entries by going open world.

It’s their most ambitious title and Omega Force aims to create the most immersive Dynasty Warriors 9 title to date. With an open world and the iconic “one versus thousands” action, Dynasty Warriors 9 allows players to explore China as it existed when the feudal warlords dominated the lands.

In the waning days of the Han dynasty and the rise of the Three Kingdoms, players set out on an adventure to complete objectives and explore a variety of landscapes. With the increased graphical fidelity the lands feature dynamic day/night and weather cycles. Environments can also be adaptable to gain an upper hand in battles.

With 83 characters from the Dynasty Warriors series making their return, players will be able to experience an intertwined narrative with the game’s critical and regular missions.

For now, we’ve got our first set of screenshots with more details are planned to revealed in the coming months.
