Ronimo Games reveals the third faction of Swords and Soldiers: the mighty Chinese.

UTRECHT, THE NETHERLANDS – April 22, 2009 – Just a few weeks before release of the game, the third faction of Swords and Soldiers, the Chinese is finally revealed!

At long last the veil of secrecy is lifted! Emerging as the third contender for world domination is the CHINESE EMPIRE! Ruled by their child emperor, the Chinese care little for Viking barbecue feasts, or Aztec Vegetable growing contests. The Child Emperor tasks his subjects with gathering the the most exquisite toys from the corners of the world. Of course this will lead the Chinese empire onto a collision course with the other two factions.

In the latest edition of V Jump, the magazine’s preview page briefly presents readers with a new title: Project V. Square Enix and Shonen Jump are partnering together to develop the title.

“Square Enix [and V Jump] begin ‘Project V’, which will create a next-generation blockbuster! Perhaps your ideas will become reality?!”

The DS is a reasonable candidate the game’s release, but we’ll just have to wait for further details to emerge.
