ABOUT NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION
Set against a backdrop of a fragmented nation, players take the mantle of a Daimyo, a feudal lord of the Sengoku era (15th-16th century Japan), and fight for the great ideal of uniting the war-ridden country under one rule. Providing the choice to play as either a historical personality or a uniquely created character, Nobunaga’s Ambition: Sphere of Influence offers an extremely wide pallet of choices for the player to shape the world as they please.
Three key elements help you on your path of unification: Creation, Diplomacy and War. Balancing these elements is crucial to expanding your influence and power during the warring period of Japan.
Will you become Shogun? Or will you just become a distant memory? You control the fate of your clan.
Having recently celebrated its 30th year anniversary, Nobunaga’s Ambition is one of the longest running franchises for KOEI TECMO Games in Japan, and during its lifetime it has received high praise by an ever-growing fan base across an array of platforms.

“※PS4 version review/ If you’ve been patiently waiting for a deep and engaging PS4 strategy title, look no further than Nobunaga’s Ambition: Sphere of Influence. While it certainly doesn’t do anything new to win over those who aren’t fans of the genre, it does more than enough to sap away the hours of anyone who’s willing to wrap their head around its complex workings.”

“※PS4 version review/ To wrap up it’s a simple pattern of development, diplomacy and war spread across two phases, council and active, that gets you addicted to Nobunaga’s Ambition: Sphere of Influence, but it’s the game’s systems and layers of complexity that keep you coming back for more.On the thirtieth anniversary of Nobunaga’s Ambition, Sphere of Influence proves to be a suitable successor for the franchise, offering the single most complicated and compelling simulation to ever come to console.”
