Delve Deeper Into the Three Kingdoms Period of Chinese History Through Exciting Battlefield Encounters on PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®Vita
KOEI TECMO America today detailed the exciting gameplay features and early purchase bonuses of the upcoming epic tactics style title, Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers. The game is due for digital release via the PlayStation®Store on January 31, 2017 for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system. Gameplay footage showcasing the tactical gameplay elements of Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers was released today alongside a plethora of screenshots which further detail gameplay aspects such as the immersive Path of Destiny mode, as well as early purchase bonuses.
Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers utilizes a tactical gameplay system wherein players strategically move their units across a battlefield to defeat opposing forces. Actions take place on a grid, with units moving a select set of spaces before carrying out offensive or defensive maneuvers. Cunningly attacking from the sides and rear of an enemy will deal significant amounts of damage, allowing units to be eliminated more efficiently. Defeating enemies successfully will enable Synchro Mode, which allows the user to unleash powerful attacks that can decimate an opposing force.
A useful companion in battle, Lixia has strong powers once sealed away into orbs. Lixia’s Orbs are unique objects that can lend an upper hand against tougher opponents. Whether the player chooses to envelop the battlefield in flames or flood enemy strongholds, these elemental changes will break through defenses and reduce infantry numbers! Players will unlock and obtain a variety of Orbs through the story, each offering its own unique abilities.
Outside of combat, players can further immerse themselves in the fascinating Three Kingdoms period through conversations with other officers. Path of Destiny episodes are unlocked during encounters on the front lines, and provide access to unique battles, new companions, monetary bonuses and useful items.
A selection of impressive costumes is available to those who purchase Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers within the game’s first month of sale, allowing players to further personalize their gameplay experience. Lixia can switch her standard costume for the “Diaochan” costume, while Guan Yinping and Lu Lingqi will receive special costumes sporting fox ears and tails.
