posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Koei Tecmo Games began streaming a promotional video for its upcoming Samurai Warriors: Sanada Maru (Sengoku Musou ~Sanada Maru~) game last Friday. The video shows the different mechanics of the game based on the different parts of Sanada Yukimura's life.
The game will ship in Japan for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita on November 23. Koei Tecmo Games will release the game in North America and Europe, and it describes the game:
KOEI TECMO America and developer Omega Force are proud to announce the upcoming western release of a ‘one versus thousands’ tactical action title focused on a fan-favorite character from the Samurai Warriors franchise: Yukimura Sanada. In this character-driven epic, players will get a unique look into the Sanada clan's inner workings before and during the 16th century conflict that drove two brothers to join opposite sides of a grand scale civil war.
The game will be available for retail and download for 7,800 yen (about US$77) plus tax for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 versions and 6,800 yen (about US$67) for the PlayStation Vita version. A "Treasure Box" edition — which also includes an artbook, soundtrack CD, and a six-piece acrylic coaster set with a special case — will retail for 12,800 yen (about US$126) for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 versions and 11,800 yen (about US$117) for the PlayStation Vita version. First print editions will come with a download code for Sanada Yukimura's red armor from the Sanada Maru NHK drama series.
Confirmed characters in the game include Sanada Yukimura as a child (voiced by Yuka Saitou) and as an adult (voiced by Takeshi Kusao), Yukimura's father Sanada Masayuki (voiced by Kenta Miyake), and Chacha (voiced by Marika Kōno). The game will cover the 48 years of Yukimura's life.
