Warriors Orochi 4 was previously given a September 27 release date in Japan. The game will follow a few weeks later in the west, with Koei Tecmo announcing today that it’s planned for October 16 in North America and October 19 in Europe.
Hot on the heels of E3 2018, Koei Tecmo has also confirmed that Warriors Orochi 4 will bring back split-screen co-op. Split Joy-Con play is possible on Switch as well.
We have more details and a trailer for Warriors Orochi 4 below.
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!
