Samurai Warriors 2 HD will be a very nice game on the PS3 and PS Vita.

Too many SKUs.
I know that's their style as usual, but... *sigh*

[ChipChipperson]

Awesome. I'm curious if this means that there will be news about Samurai Warriors 4 very soon.

[Andreas-Sword]

I think Samurai Warriors 4 will be maybe a PS4 exclusive. I hope.
Or the game will come to the current gen consoles, and to the next gen consoles.

Well, I did like SW 2, but considering the rate at which Koei has been releasing DW/SW/WO/DWG as well as the One Piece games and the Fist of the North Star ones, which are all quite similar gameplay-wise, I'm not sure how I feel about them also going for HD remakes of their previous games. Just how many hack n slash games can they release in a year without saturating their own market.
