Warriors Orochi 4 Release Date Announced
KOEI TECMO Europe revealed that Warriors Orochi 4, the latest instalment in the one versus thousands action game series, will feature the return of fan-favourite split screen co-op!
Slated for release across Europe on 19th October 2018 for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, the Xbox One family of devices including the Xbox One X, and digitally on Windows PC via Steam, Warriors Orochi 4 boasts a remarkable 170 playable characters from the Dynasty and Samurai Warriors universes, giving players an astounding number of options to choose from when playing alone, or with a friend.
Furthermore, this latest fusion title features the inaugural appearance of Magic abilities, allowing characters to wield phenomenally powerful and visually impressive attacks against their most challenging foes. These new-found powers come from the Gods’ most divine artefacts: the Sacred Treasures. In this distorted, merged version of their worlds, all Warriors are unexpectedly gifted with a Sacred Treasure that fuels their spell-casting attacks. Alongside their legacy moves and special attacks they can now cast ranged and targeted spells, or even combine their powers with those of an ally for truly devastating blows!
To further showcase the new possibilities that open up in Warriors Orochi 4 Koei Tecmo released a new trailer, offering a deeper look into the game’s first announced new character: the father of the Greek pantheon: Zeus. Wielding the mighty Keravnos Zeus has the power to call down thunder to devastate his enemies and he seems to partner up with familiar faces from the Warrior-verse to defeat a yet-unknown foe!
Check out the Trailer:
- Summary: The heroes who defeated Orochi returned to the places where they belong. All of their memories were lost. However, their worlds will once again come together.
