KOEI announced today that Warriors Orochi will ship for the Sony PSP and Windows-based PC's in the UK on March 28th, 2008. In Warriors Orochi the characters from both Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors team-up to wage war against a new, yet powerful force, the venomous Serpent King Orochi.
The game features an impressive roster of 77 playable characters, while four action-packed "crossover" storylines feature team-ups and some long-awaited confrontations between characters from both series. The game's new "Team Battle System" and "Weapon Fusion" push Tactical Action to a whole new level. For the first time in KOEI's Tactical Action games, players can create their own three-person tag team. At any given time, one warrior will be engaged in battle, while the other two are recuperating; restoring their Life Meters and Musou Gauges.
