Publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Omega Force have released the first storyline information, as well as new screenshots and footage of Dynasty Warriors: Origins. The new footage was shown during a PlayStation booth stage event at ChinaJoy 2024, which runs from July 26 to 29 at Shanghai New International Expo Center in Shanghai, China.

Get the details below.

Promising to deliver the most intense action of any Warriors title to date, Dynasty Warriors: Origins introduces fans to a heroic martial artist destined to overcome the immense odds as he fights his way through waves of enemies across the battlefields of the ancient Three Kingdoms.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins introduces a new, deeper interpretation of the traditional Three Kingdoms storyline, which depicts ancient Chinese history. The story begins the year before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the dawn of an era of great upheaval, when the protagonist (voiced by Jun Fukuyama)—a martial artist with amnesia—visits a village suffering from famine. Here, he meets Zhang Jiao, a long-haired man who offers a helping hand to people, and Guan Yu, a bearded warrior who denounces the injustice of government officials, and together they fight against the forces of corrupt officials.

The immersive story is experienced through the amnesiac protagonist, weaving through history as a single hero. Throughout the game, episodes of the Three Kingdoms are described in greater clarity and detail, delivering a clear and engaging experience not only for fans of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Dynasty Warriors franchises, but for those who have not experienced them before.

Dynasty Warriors (and any of its spin-offs) + Earth Defense Force (since EDF 6 just came out) are my "guilty" pleasures.
Great games where you can just tune out and just have fun.
They are also games where you get a lot of satisfaction 100%ing, because it does take great effort to do so.
