Samurai Follow-Up Set for February
Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends emerges.
Combining entertainment and accurate historical facts has always been a hit-or-miss affair, but Koei has consistently found itself managing the former. The company announced today that it will be returning to last summer's Samurai Warriors and adding a dollop of fiction to form Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends.
Set in Feudal Japan, Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends is a strategy game that builds on the history present in the previous game through the addition of four fictional characters. These characters each have their own stories and multiple endings, so even Samurai Warriors veterans will find something new.
Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends is out in the UK in February 2005.
