Publisher Hamster Corporation has announced the next Console Archives release will be the original Nobunaga’s Ambition for home consoles.

Console Archives Dezaemon is coming to both Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 this week on March 5th.

Originally released for the PC-88SR in 1986 for Japan, it was later ported to the original Nintendo Entertainment System / Famicom in 1988 and is the first game in the series released globally.

Here’s a brief blurb on the game, plus a new trailer:

Nobunaga’s Ambition was released by KOEI in 1988 for an 8-bit home console.

In this historical simulation game, you become a Sengoku daimyo with the ultimate goal of unifying all of Japan.

As the tides of war shift from moment to moment, you must determine how to enrich your domain, strengthen your military, and conquer rival nations. Use every ounce of your ingenuity to bring an end to the turbulent Sengoku period!

Hamster Corporation’s Console Archives series of re-releases faithfully reproduces classic console games for modern platforms.
