The legendary Warriors return with new characters, new stories and new game-play in Dynasty Warriors 8 for Xbox 360.

Dynasty warriors 8 will be based on the kingdoms of Wei, Wu and Shu and the rise of Jin.

Key Features of Dynasty Warriors 8 on Xbox 360:

Story mode - Featuring new episodes and characters, Story mode takes a deeper look at the drama as it unfolds in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Allowing the story to branch out into different directions, giving players the power to play an alternative history based on their choices.
