News Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate Definitive Edition Is Real, By the Way, But Only for PC
That name, though
Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate Turbo MegaMix Xtreme Game of the Year Definitive Edition — or Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate Definitive Edition, if you don't like dumb jokes — is real.

Deification station

News Warriors Orochi 4 Thinks 16th October Is a Good Release Date
Who are we to argue?
Koei Tecmo probably expects Warriors Orochi 4 to reach its target audience whenever it releases, but 16th October in North America and 19th October in Europe doesn’t necessarily seem like the best slot. That’s within days of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Battlefield V, and Red Dead Redemption 2. No doubt we’ll be able to...

In Japan, anyway
In an announcement that's seemingly come out of nowhere, Koei Tecmo has revealed Warriors Orochi 4, and it's due to launch later this year in Japan.

Review Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (PlayStation Vita)
The handheld ultimatum
These days, publisher Koei Tecmo is all but forced to shove its Warriors games onto handheld consoles. With portable devices ruling the Japanese market, it makes perfectly logical sense, and what kind of musou fan would turn down the opportunity to wreck thousands of enemies on a small screen from the comfort of a seat on the...
Review Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (PlayStation 4)
A good sssstarting point
Warriors titles may be having a decent critical run of late, but even that doesn't help the fact that this year has already had its fair share of titles from Koei Tecmo's slash-'em-up franchises. We've had Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition and Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Reborn, and now we've got Warriors...
