Warriors Orochi Comes To PC And PSP News

Warriors Orochi, the game that bought together KOEI's dynastic Samurai and Dynasty Warriors series, will come to PC and PSP this March 28th. The game was released on Xbox 360 and PS2 last September.

The Samurai and Dynasty Warriors games have been very successful in Japan over the years, although the craze is yet to catch on in the West. As a peculiar mix of Hack 'n Slash gameplay with RTS elements, Warriors Orochi sits atop six previous Dynasty Warriors games and two Samurai Warriors titles (both series have various spin-off versions as well).

"Having received so much feedback from fans who were desperate to have the full Warriors console experience in a portable format we're really pleased to now be able to give them exactly what they've wished for." Said Will Curley, Sales Manager for KOEI Europe. "For the first time on PSP the huge battlefields from the console versions of Warriors Orochi have been recreated and crammed into a portable gaming experience along with the entire cast of characters. Warriors Orochi is a massive step forward for Warriors games on PSP and we've been really impressed with just what we can do on PSP. Bringing our unique brand of tactical action to PC is also a very significant move for us as we look ahead to achieving much more on this platform. Warriors Orochi is just the first step as we look towards a number of new releases on PC in the coming months."
