Another Koei Tecmo video game nears its release date as "Dynasty Warriors 8" for PS3, PS4, Xbox One and PC comes in less than two weeks!
Latest trailer unleashes gameplay and weapons details including a crossbow, dragon column, flame blade, formation rod and newest weapon, sabatons.
As "Dynasty Warriors 8" nears its release date, Koei Tecmo has been teasing fans worldwide about the newest addition to the "Dynasty Warriors" weaponry. The latest weapon revealed is an armor-turned tool of destruction known as sabatons.
While mainly an armor covering the foot area, sabatons have evolved in "Dynasty Warriors 8" gameplay. In the latest gameplay trailer of "Dynasty Warriors 8," sabatons inflict maximum damage and allow the player to keep distance from opponents thereby minimizing harm to the gamer's character.
The first weapon unveiled last Feb. 10 was the revolving crossbow. It demonstrates its ability to perform as a close-range weapon, taking out numerous opponents in one swing. Firing the crossbow is another story, as it is able to take out opponents in 360 degree radius.
A powerful formation rod follows the weapon unveiling, which highlights the ability to strategically place numerous rods throughout areas infested with opponents. The rods will then connect and annihilate enemies within its scope.
"Dynasty Warriors 8" flame blade is the third weapon released. The long-reaching weapon destroys countless enemies within its range with one swing.
Dragon column weapon of "Dynasty Warriors 8" might be the less appealing weapon, but it sure isn't the weakest. The bench-looking weapon emits a powerful whirlwind-like energy that slaughters enemies within range, inflicting maximum damage.
The 8th installment to the "Dynasty Warriors" franchise release date has been set to Feb. 24 for PS3, PS4 and Xbox One. "Dynasty Warriors 8" for Windows release date is set a few days later at Feb. 27.
Watch the latest gameplay trailer of "Dynasty Warriors 8" for the sabatons while waiting for the release date.
