Koei Tecmo's Q1 2024 financial report unveils an exciting lineup of upcoming games, including a new Dynasty Warriors title and a currently unannounced AAA game.
Dynasty Warriors: Origins – A New Era of Tactical Action
Omega Force is developing "Dynasty Warriors Origins," a fresh take on the musou formula, offering tactical action gameplay. Launching in 2025 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam), this marks the first mainline Dynasty Warriors entry since 2018's Dynasty Warriors 9. The game follows a "Nameless Hero" during the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history.
Other Upcoming Releases and Unannounced Projects
The report also confirms the global release of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake" (October 2024 for PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC) and "FAIRY TAIL 2" (Winter 2024 for PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC). Significantly, Koei Tecmo is developing multiple unannounced titles, at least one of which is a AAA game.
Strong sales of Rise of the Ronin fueled Q1 2024 console game profits, underscoring Koei Tecmo's ambition to become a major player in the AAA market.
A Commitment to Consistent AAA Releases
Koei Tecmo's strategic goal is to establish a sustainable pipeline of AAA titles. The establishment of a dedicated AAA studio signifies their commitment to this objective. The company aims to build a system capable of delivering large-scale games consistently. While details on their unannounced AAA project remain scarce, the commitment to continued AAA development is clear.
