Koei Tecmo has released a wealth of new information for upcoming Samurai Warriors 4-II, set to be released on October 2nd on the PlayStation 4, and digitally on the PlayStation, PlayStation Vita, and on PC via Steam.
Samurai Warriors 4-II is a hero-focused saga. Unlike the previous Samurai Warriors games that focused on delivering their narrative by exploring the various regions of feudal Japan, this title casts a spotlight on the characters themselves and tells their stories through 13 exciting new chapters. These chapters revolve around nine characters introduced in Samurai Warriors 4, three fan-favorites from previous titles and a brand new addition to the samurai roster.
Koei Tecmo revealed a set of screenshots of this new playable addition: Naomasa Ii. Naomasa is a general of the Tokugawa army, known both for his bravery and for donning a bright red armour when taking to the battlefield. Naomasa has been part of the Samurai Warriors Universe since the first instalment of the series; however this is the first time he will appear as a playable character.
In addition, the first four of twelve returning playable characters were announced, accompanied by a batch of assets and battle screens. These characters are: Nobuyuki Sanada–the elder of the two brothers in line for leadership of the Sanada clan and a very level headed and competent warrior; Hisahide Matsunaga–a feudal lord under the rule of Nobunaga; Koshōshō–an adventurous and ambitious paramor; and the famed Mitsunari Ishida–a shrew financial manager and one of the most popular playable characters in the Samurai Warriors Saga.
