Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers

KOEI TECMO Europe today detailed the exciting gameplay features and early purchase bonuses of the upcoming epic tactics style title, Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers. The game is due for digital release via the PlayStation Store on the 1st February 2017 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. A gameplay trailer showcasing the tactical gameplay elements of Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers was released today. Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers utilises a tactical gameplay system wherein players strategically move their units across a battlefield to defeat opposing forces. Actions take place on a grid, with units moving a select set of spaces before carrying out offensive or defensive manoeuvres.

Defeating enemies successfully will enable Synchro Mode, which allows the user to unleash powerful attacks that can decimate an opposing force.
