Koei Tecmo has announced both the release date and PC version for Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires.

The enhanced version of the musou original is launching across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 (digital-only), and PC via the Steam client on January 27th in North America and on January 30th in Europe.


Like the majority of the Warriors games, Empires features a war-torn depiction of ancient China, although it switches things up a bit by offering 83 characters, or completely original player-generated characters. You can also fully customize your banners, horses, and the “regular” military officers.

With Empire mode, players can choose from many different roles through which they’ll experience a take on ancient Chinese history. Koei Tecmo is promising varying outcomes through a “different methodology of warfare.” You’ll see returning historical figures like Lu Bu, the “egotistical warrior who moves from one betrayal to another in search of his own glory,” and Liu Bei, the “provincial ruler forced to wander the land in search of a home.”
