KOEI TECMO America and developer Kou Shibusawa announced that their highly anticipated strategy game, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 REMAKE will be available Oct. 24, 2024 digitally on Nintendo Switch. To help celebrate the announcement, an all-new trailer was released along with stunning key art created by illustrator Keiji Hida, the artist behind the amazing visuals of Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV.
More about the game:
Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 REMAKE is based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII with Power Up Kit, complete with both the “All Officers Play” and “All Periods Scenarios” features, as well as a host of new content to deliver the most complete Romance of the Three Kingdoms experience to date.
Through the evolved “All Officers Play” feature, players have the option to take control of the powerful rulers and the officers who serve them or be a free officer and join a vagrant army. This enables players to explore the Three Kingdoms with a fresh and unique experience every time through thanks to the incredible amount of new features and the variety of associations formed both on and off the battlefield highlighted by both “Symbiotic” and “Antagonistic” relationships.
“Symbiotic” relationships are established when the player interacts with other officers through situations like commands or events and a certain number of “sympathies” occur. When a player is in a “Symbiotic” relationship with another officer, the officer will join and help the player in many situations, including domestics, councils, and battles. On the other hand, if the relationship is “Antagonistic”, the officer will not accept visits from the player and may even hunt them on the battlefield.
Another unique strategy element to RTK8 REMAKE is the addition of the powerful and unique “Traits”. Helping officers stand out, “Traits” is an ability possessed by some officers with exceptional achievements or memorable anecdotes in history. For example: Cao Cao is able to act twice in council and Liu Bei is able to meet with officers without fail!
The variety of relationships built up throughout the experience are now dramatically displayed through a number of new elements. Players will be able to check on the constantly changing dynamics of each relationship through the “Relationship Chart”. The “Relationship Chart” not only shows relationships like “Sworn Siblings” and “Spouses” but also depicts special relationships such as “Destined Partners”, “Rivals”, and “Sworn Enemies” as well as displaying the various “Symbiotic” and “Antagonistic” connections. As relationships deepen with others, “Linked Forge” may even occur during battles and missions. These special links allow for a better performance beyond individual capabilities in various situations.
In addition, many events in the game, ranging from major historical incidents to anecdotes of officers can now be initiated by officers through “Tales”. This allows players to selectively participate in the events of their choosing. Additionally, some events offer choices and the player’s decisions will dynamically alter the lives of officers and the Three Kingdoms!
