Omega Force‘s game (or… more of a standalone expansion?) will be published by Koei Tecmo almost everywhere.

„Combining the 1 vs. 1,000 action of Dynasty Warriors with the addition of strategic elements, including unit command, Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires sets players on a quest to conquer ancient China by both sword and strategy. Powerful Siege Battles enable commanders to deploy units to capture strategic points on the map like castles. Experiencing high-stakes fights at every turn, players can now take control of these central points on the battlefield through the use of fire attacks or other stratagem, siege weapons, and, at times, simply by force as commanders execute their strategies and attack enemy troops by issuing vital commands to units throughout the skirmish.

Akihiro Suzuki, the producer of the Dynasty Warriors series, claims that Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires will drop the open-world system that the base game had. Instead, it’s going for a natural evolution of the Empires series, but with the resources Dynasty Warriors 9 has, all to create battles with a bigger sense of scale.

Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires will launch early next year on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam). It will have split-screen for two players.
