When we announced Dynasty Warriors: Origins back in May, the team at Koei Tecmo and Omega Force were ecstatic to hear from fans worldwide who have been waiting to experience the next evolution of Dynasty Warriors. Today, we’re excited to share here first that the game will be available on January 17, 2025! To help celebrate the release date news, we’re also showcasing for the first time our brand-new trailer! Play Video Battles There are various situations for battles, as you may find yourself leading the way in battle on your own, or joining alongside allied officers and soldiers to charge towards large forces of enemies. You can rely on the strength of accompanying Musou officers, or issue commands to the unit you lead. With so many strategies to choose from, you really hold the key to victory at your fingertips. Musou Officers In the Three Kingdoms, there are many well-known and powerful officers such as Lu Bu (do not pursue Lu Bu!). Battles against these officers who possess the near superhuman strength of 1 vs. 1,000 results in combat that is highly action-oriented and will keep you on the edge of your seat. This military power also thrives within your allies, and the Companion officer that accompanies the protagonist can become temporarily playable if certain conditions are met during battle, leading to an exhilarating experience of clearing out enemies with dominance on a whole different scale. Continental Map While it is not included in the trailer, there is a continental map where players can walk around China that I also wanted to highlight. Players can explore the land as they move between battlefields, and it also provides a better understanding on where specific battlefields and cities are located, so those who are completely new to the Three Kingdoms have nothing to worry about as the map helps you learn even more about the vast land you are now discovering. Now that everyone is more familiar with some of the most exciting aspects of Dynasty Warriors: Origins, we hope you watch the trailer again (and again!), and don’t forget to add the game to your wishlist before it launches January 17!
