As part of its new merger with Tecmo, Koei is investigating the possibility of expanding the popularity of its Dynasty Warriors series in Western markets, says Koei president Kenji Matsubara.
"I cannot speak in detail right now, but please wait and see. Now we are working on what you mentioned," Matsubara says, speaking to Gamasutra at the Tokyo Game Show.
Koei has previously pursued a relationship with Namco Bandai in the development of Dynasty Warriors Gundam, based on the huge anime franchise, and new moves for the franchise might be based on that business model. Matsubara also hints that the game would be coming from Koei Canada, which is working on an unannounced next-gen console project.
