More On: Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce
Koei sent us a press release just to remind you all that the "...year's hottest action game..." Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce is coming to North America on April 28th. We haven't been lucky enough to get to play Strikeforce yet but Chris Hudak over at GameRevolution.com had some interesting comments and a nice genreal overview of the features of the game (mad props Chris). Don't worry though, I'm sure Koei will send us a copy to review as soon as they read this. Any day now.

DYNASTY WARRIORS®: STRIKEFORCE REINVENTS THE BIGGEST NAME IN ACTION GAMES

KOEI strikes first and strikes hard with this year's hottest action game exclusively for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system

 

Burlingame, CA -- March 11, 2009 -- KOEI, recognized worldwide as the premier brand of strategy and action games, today announced that after an overwhelmingly successful release in Japan, DYNASTY WARRIORS®: Strikeforce is now ready to take on North America.

The multi-million selling Dynasty Warriors® series has long been renowned for pitting a lone warrior against an army of thousands. The upcoming and highly-anticipated action game reinvents the Dynasty Warriors brand of action into this year's hottest multi-player experience on the PSP system.

DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce will be available at retailers beginning the week of April 28, 2009. Consumers can pre-order the game now at Amazon, Game Crazy, GameFly, and GameStop.

About DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce
DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is a game unlike any other in the series. For the first time, up to four friends can join together to form a "Strikeforce." As a team, players will travel to different towns, embark on quests, and use coordinated assaults to conquer heavily-armed fortresses and colossal beasts.

End of level bosses await intrepid heroes with a multitude of guises and deadly attacks while enemies spread throughout each stage possess much greater levels of intelligence and more powerful attacks. So now more than ever it's imperative that players work together as a team and find ways to overcome the challenges and obstacles that stand between them and victory.

New "Fury" transformations give characters even greater supernatural abilities and attacks, including lightning fast speed and the ability to fly. Warriors can now take to the skies and face off against their foes in spectacular aerial combat.

Later this year, KOEI will offer new content for DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce. Additional quests will be available free-of-charge, exclusively through the PlayStation®Store.

DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is developed by Omega Force and is for 1 to 4 players. Multi-player play is via ad-hoc mode only. This game is rated "T" (Teen- Violence) by the ESRB. For more information, visit www.koei.com/strikeforce
