The original ‘Dynasty Warriors’, which was a spin-off of Koei’s ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ series, was an action game that saw the player take on the role of one of a number of legendary Chinese heroes to hack and slash their way through huge hordes of enemies. It is currently Koei’s most successful franchise with over 18 million copies of the game and its sequels sold worldwide.

‘Dynasty Warriors’ (The Movie?) will open across China on May 1, 2021.
