Hertfordshire, 26th July 2024 – Today, KOEI TECMO Europe and developer Omega Force revealed the first storyline details of their upcoming 1 vs. 1,000 action game, DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS, available for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC via Steam® in 2025. Promising to deliver the most intense action of any Warriors title to date, DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS introduces fans to a heroic martial artist destined to overcome the immense odds as he fights his way through waves of enemies across the battlefields of the ancient Three Kingdoms.
DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS introduces a new, deeper interpretation of the traditional Three Kingdoms storyline, which depicts ancient Chinese history. The story begins a year before the Yellow Turban Rebellion during the dawn of an era of great upheaval, when the protagonist, a martial artist with amnesia, visits a village suffering from famine. There, he meets Zhang Jiao, a long-haired man who offers a helping hand to people, and Guan Yu, a bearded warrior who denounces the injustice of government officials. Together, they fight against the forces of corrupt officials.
The immersive story is experienced through the amnesiac protagonist, who weaves through history as a solitary hero. Throughout the game, episodes of the Three Kingdoms are described in greater clarity and detail, delivering a clear and engaging experience not only for fans of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and DYNASTY WARRIORS, but also newcomers to the franchises.
DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS delivers an overwhelming sense of realism on every battlefield, with the largest number of soldiers in the series’ history to date. Enemy soldiers attack in cooperation and are extremely formidable. While using your own skills to fight, you must also charge forward with your allies to clear the way. Once you storm the field and prepare to fight, you and your allies will collide with thousands of enemy soldiers of opposing armies, allowing you to experience a sense of realism and unprecedented scale of the battlefield. In addition, when meeting certain conditions, you can temporarily control Guan Yu and other officers marching forth by your side.
DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS displays the vast world of the Three Kingdoms on a continental map, enabling players to walk around freely, interact with heroes, and choose which battlefield to explore next.
To help introduce fans to the new game, Akihiro Suzuki, the general producer of DYNASTY WARRIORS: ORIGINS, alongside producer Tomohiko Sho, recently released a video outlining their expectations for the game, which can be viewed here.
