Warriors Orochi 2, which splices the Samurai and Dynasty franchise together, will be hitting North America and Europe sometime this September.
The sequel is to include a number of storylines set in the Kingdom’s of Wu, Wei and Shu all in a bid to stop the Serpent King once again.
KOEI is so happy with their 1.5 million game units sold of the original crossover that they just had to temper a new one. There will be over 90 playable characters with new ones that stem from both Chinese and Japanese history.
The new story supposedly follows a new group of fighters that tries to stop the return of the Serpent King. The game will also feature multiplayer in the form of a standard ”Versus” mode, which includes a ”Tag Team” mode.
”While the slain Orochi lies in the netherworld, a mysterious alliance is hatching an otherworldly plan so that the Serpent King may rise again. Now a new group of warriors must join forces with history’s finest in an effort to stop this evil resurrection.”
Returning also is the ”Team Battle System”, while one member of the 3 person group fights the other two can recuperate their energies.
Warriors Orochi 2 is due on Xbox360 and PS2 this September.
