About
Dynasty
Warriors 6
Selling over
15 million
units
combined
worldwide,
KOEI’s
award-winning
Dynasty
Warriors
series and
Samurai
Warriors
series of
Tactical
Action games
have become
an
astonishing
success and
are global
phenomenon.
With Dynasty
Warriors 6,
KOEI is
reinventing
the Tactical
Action
experience
for the next
generation.
Set in
Ancient
China during
the 3rd
century,
Dynasty
Warriors 6
immerses
gamers in a
truly
cinematic
kung-fu
action
experience.
Celebrated
characters
have been
completely
re-imagined
with new
weapons and
fighting
techniques
motion-captured
from some of
today’s
leading
stuntmen and
women in
Asia. With
the game’s
new “Renbu”
attack
system and
game
controls,
players can
execute
lightning-fast
combos and
the most
dazzling
fighting
moves with
ease.
Developed
from the
ground up
exclusively
for
next-generation
platforms,
the game’s
proprietary
engine
delivers the
most chaotic
and
challenging
Tactical
Action
experience
to date.
Players can
use the
landscape to
elude the
thousands of
soldiers
swarming the
battlefield.
But as
players move
and attack,
adaptable
enemy A.I.
devises
offensive
and
defensive
combat
tactics, and
can
retaliate
with packs
of fierce
hunting dogs
and patrol
boats. All
of the
explosive
action comes
to life in
high
definition,
60 frames
per second
(fps)
graphics.
Based on the
epic novel,
Romance of
the Three
Kingdoms,
Dynasty
Warriors 6
depicts the
massive
battles
ignited by
the fall of
the Han
Dynasty when
three
rebellious
states moved
to overthrow
the Emperor
of China.
Created by
KOEI’s Omega
Force team,
Dynasty
Warriors 6
delivers
breathtaking
visuals in
720p HDTV,
and in-game
Dolby®Digital
audio. This
game has not
yet been
rated by the
ESRB.
Dynasty
Warriors 6
is for 1 to
2 players.
