Dynasty Warriors 7 (真・三國無双6, Shin Sangoku Musō Shikkuzu, known in Japan as Shin Sangoku Musou 6) is a hack and slash video game and the seventh official installment of the Dynasty Warriors series. It is currently being developed by Omega Force and published by Koei. The game has been confirmed to be PS3 exclusive in Japan. It is based on the famous Chinese novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms by Luo Guanzhong. The game was unveiled at the 2010 Tokyo Game Show. On October 26, it was revealed at the Koei Press Conference to have improved graphics and gameplay, with the support of stereoscopic 3D features. Tecmo Koei has announced a Europe Release in March 2011 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. [2][3]

Gameplay

Dynasty Warriors 7 will be the first game in the series to extend past the Battle of Wuzhang Plains. Consequently, the Jin Kingdom will be added, bringing the total number of major factions to four.

  • The Renbu combat system has been removed, replaced by a return to the familiar charge system, which allows players to end increasingly longer combos with a special move of varying effect, depending on the current tactical situation. Characters are also allowed to wield more than one weapon, with the ability to execute exclusive combos with their unique weapons. In addition, both aerial musou attacks and aerial combos are being introduced.
  • An additional mode —Chronicle Mode— has been incorporated into the game. This features free-roam-China and create-your-own-story story mode gameplay. It has been confirmed that the aforementioned mode will be available to "Other" characters in the kingdom, due to the fact that they have not been given their own story in Story Mode.
  • The morale bar has been removed from the game; however, the morale system itself still remains and will be reflected from the messages of officers.[1]
  • Some of the major battles will be split into two parts, so the player can have a different perspectives of the battle. One example would be Shu's Chang Ban stage — the first part concentrating on Zhao Yun and the second part on Zhang Fei.[1]

Confirmed characters

  • More than 60 characters will be featured in the game, although the confirmed playable characters are currently unknown.[1]
  • Note: This is Cai Wenji's first appearance in a European or North American Dynasty Warriors game. She was, however, a playable character in Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce 2, currently only available in Japan. [6]
