Dynasty Warriors 8 Delayed Till July 19th

Fans of the Dynasty Warriors series will need to wait for the series’ eight rendition to come out, as Tecmo Koei Europe announced that Dynasty Warriors 8 will now release on July 19th 2013 for PS3 and Xbox 360 in Europe. There’s been no reason given for the delay.

Dynasty Warriors 8 continues the series’ look at historical battles through the eyes of various military and political leaders. It will pack in tons of new characters, stages, modes and even multiple endings for those interested in the continuing conflict between the Three Kingdoms of China (though the Wei, Wu, Shu and Jin presence would indicate four kingdoms. Not that we’re complaining).

There are plenty of goodies to be had as well, as those pre-order the game now will receive a DLC pack with outfits for Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Cao Cao, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu from Dynasty Warriors 1. Stay tuned for more news as Dynasty Warriors 8 releases next month.
