Koei Tecmo's Upcoming Game Lineup: Dynasty Warriors, AAA Titles, and More
Koei Tecmo's recent financial report unveils an exciting slate of new games launching in late 2024 and beyond. Let's delve into the details.
A New Dynasty Warriors Game After a Long Wait
Omega Force is developing "Dynasty Warriors Origins," a tactical action game, marking the first full Dynasty Warriors title since 2018's Dynasty Warriors 9 (excluding its 2022 expansion). Launching in 2025 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam), the game follows a "Nameless Hero" during the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history.
Other Notable Releases and Unannounced Projects
The July 29th report also highlighted "Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake" (October 2024 release on PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC), and "FAIRY TAIL 2" (Winter 2024 release on PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC). Importantly, the report confirmed Koei Tecmo is developing multiple unannounced titles, including at least one AAA game.
Rise of the Ronin's continued success fueled Koei Tecmo's Q1 2024 console game profits. The company anticipates strong sales for this open-world action RPG, viewing it as a crucial step towards establishing itself as a major AAA developer.
Koei Tecmo's Commitment to Consistent AAA Releases
Earlier reports showcased Koei Tecmo's ambition to become a leading AAA developer, including the creation of a new AAA studio currently working on its first project. The recent financial report reinforces this commitment, outlining a strategy for continuous large-scale title releases. While details about the unannounced AAA title remain scarce, its existence solidifies Koei Tecmo's dedication to the high-budget gaming market. The company aims to build a system for consistent AAA game production to fuel its long-term growth.
