Nintendo and Koei Tecmo officially revealed Hyrule Warriors Legends during the Digital Event that took place on Tuesday. In an interview with Famitsu this week, producer Yosuke Hayashi shares more information about what we can expect from the game.

In one of his responses, Hayashi notes that planning started for the 3DS version after the Wii U title released. He said:

That was after the release of the Wii U version. The Wii U version got a positive reception from people who played it, but as there are already many Zelda titles on the Nintendo 3DS, many Zelda fans said “I’d like to play this on 3DS”. The development of the Nintendo 3DS version took off from there.

Check out the gallery below for the first screenshots of Tetra and King of Red Lions in the Wii U version of Hyrule Warriors. We also have a mix of new/old screenshots for the 3DS edition.

Koei Tecmo has issued new screenshots from Romance of the Three Kingdoms 2 and Nobunaga’s Ambition 2. Check them out in the gallery below.

Koei Tecmo shared new details about Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 today ahead of the game’s June 30 release date.

Read up on some information regarding the Edit Mode below.

Among the key features of the game is the edit mode, where the player can create their own character. Being implemented from the fan-favorite version released with Samurai Warriors 4, the edit mode allows for a very deep level of customization and vast selection of facial features, armor, weapons and accessories. What is unique in Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 though, is that for the first time players will be able to equip their customized characters with the default costumes of the famous warriors they befriend!

Creating and maintaining relationships with officers and warriors is a very important part of Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3, as it allows players to listen in to their thoughts and plans and affect them to their desired effect. In that way the game takes a different turn, as the story mode is completely in the players’ hands and the outcomes of battles, alliances, and ultimately the conclusion of the game, is altered by their actions.

Koei Tecmo also published a pair of gameplay videos today:

Update: Bumped to the top. Added in another video comparison.


Nintendo World Report put together a new video comparing the 3DS and Wii U versions of Hyrule Warriors. Check it out below.

With the new version of Hyrule Warriors on 3DS, fans can expect some new content. We know that Nintendo and Koei Tecmo are introducing new characters, but there seems to be other additions as well.

Case and point: an interesting crossbow spotted in the 3DS debut trailer of Hyrule Warriors. What’s particularly interesting here is that the weapon appears to be very similar to what was shown in concept art for a female Link. This character, “Linkle”, never made it into the final version of Hyrule Warriors.

Is this indeed Linkle’s crossbow that we’re looking at? Could the character herself be included in Hyrule Warriors on 3DS?

Hyrule Warriors is making its way to 3DS as “Hyrule Warriors: All-Stars”, it’s been revealed.

The base game seems to be very similar to the original on Wii U. However, there will be at least two new characters, including Tetra and King of Red Lions.

Characters from the new 3DS version can be transferred over to the original Wii U game.

Watch the debut trailer for Hyrule Warriors on 3DS below.

When Koei Tecmo officially announced Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 for the west a few days ago, there was a hint that it would be a digital-only release. Based on the wording, it was unclear if that news only applied to the PS Vita version or both the 3DS and PS Vita versions. We now have the answer.

A graphic shared by Koei Tecmo’s Chin Soon Sun confirms that Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 is digital-only for both releases, which obviously includes 3DS. That’s a bit of a shame, but at least we’re getting the game overseas!
