Lol that guy did seem a bit suspicious.Jesus ZhugeEX! Did you just get that guy banned?

Not sure why they think an Xbox One & PS3 port in the west is a good idea though haha.

Yes, I'll be buying this on the X1, thanks Koei! I might even finally get a PS4 by that time, but I've generally preferred my gaming on Xbox systems sinceSega disappeared from the hardware marketI had the choice...
Really glad to see this making it over here in general, though. Koei's been translating EVERYTHING, and I really like how consistent they're being on that front.
This... really isn't true at all. Xbox systems get very unique Japanese games (Think Gunvalkyrie, Jetset Radio Future, Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Crimson Dragon, etc), and they usually get a few nice exclusives that either never show up on other systems, or come much later.
Please remember that when the tables were more even in the console wars, many people made friendships and bonds on the 360, even those that loved Japanese games. Not everyone dropped those bonds to jump ship to PS4 when first-year decisions showed it gaining traction. Considering how many Japanese-developed games landed first / exclusively on 360 last gen, it has been pretty annoying to miss out on so many JP games, especially when they're often getting once-unheard of PC ports too.
Hmm, never watched the show so I have absolutely no idea about this game.
How's the anime?
It's awesome-- The first episode is more of a prequel to the rest of the story, but from episode two onward I could easily see why Koei selected this to make a musou game out of. It's a perfect fit.
I wasn't aware this anime had any presence in the West at all. They'll localise anything these days.
Great news. I'm really enjoying the currently airing anime.
Can't wait to slay with Farangis.
Also I don't have any next-gen console being a PC gamer, so the PS3 port is very welcome.
Daryun always gave me Lu Bu vibes.
Yay!
This is why Koei is my favourite company in gaming right now!
Not sure why they think an Xbox One & PS3 port in the west is a good idea though haha.
That was a little bit unnecessary man.
And we all know Sima Yi is the true winner in the end.
I'm sure he was banned for being an alt though. Not what I said. Literally a user the other day was banned for saying the same thing, hence why I bought it up. Its been happening in the npd thread a lot.
Any lover of Japanese games would have also observed that Japanese exclusives pretty much landslides toward the PS3 from 2010 onward and the 360's Japanese efforts were dead in the water. I honestly can't take anyone seriously if they came into this generation expecting the X1 to receive the same level of amount of Japanese games like the 360 did.
You've made a perfect valid explanation as to why you might prefer the XBOX platform and choose it over the PS4 for the time being ("friendships and bonds".) However, that's pretty much a non-answer to the question "Why would you buy an Xbox One to play Japanese games?"
That is unless you've been living under a rock since 2010.
Based Koei-Tecmo
Localize everything and I'll buy it!

yes, its DW but set in the Arslan world
a koei game with WARRIORS in caps, yuuup.(unless it plays slower than that troy game, then its shit)
Wait, was this what their countdown was for? I thought it wasn't Warriors.

I haven't started the new Anime yet, but considering KoeiTecmo brought FOTNS Musou out in the US... I think they're the kinda company that brings games to any size fandom, and I rather love that about them. They'll help grow a brands awareness, and not just piggyback off established popularity. They bring out a lot I'm sure other publishers would skip over.
... Like I said, Xbox gets a lot of fresh, unique Japanese games, and even going into this gen, the system was getting it's first Kingdom hearts, and had original games like Crimson Dragon, Dead Rising 3 and D4, which aren't necessarily appearing on any other consoles.
They had some nice relationships with publishers coming out of 360 (Such as with Treasure and SNKP, old Team Ninja,even 5bp and Cave).
Add to that that half of what PS4 got that I found interesting (even with a PS3, I don't care about the Uncharted series, Resistance, GoW, etc), also had a Vita version, or even a PS3 one, and I think that's all enough reason. There was little reason to think things like Street Fighter 5 would be skipping the X1, especially when it was the first of it's gen that had a fight stick and new fighter out.
I still don't think it'll feel right playing Shenmue on a Sony system, heh.
Anime Moose? Provided there are much more characters than shown in the trailer, I'm interested.
Why would you buy an Xbox One to play Japanese games?
That's like buying a dvd player to play blu rays only.
Bro its time to move on and admit that the Xbone is not going to get the japanese support the PS4 is getting. If you want japanese games get a PS4.
Best anime I've watched in some time, will buy.
Because he has one?
Anyway I'm surprised this is getting a game so soon, it doesn't even have an anime adaption yet, correct?

I have all 3 systems, but I hope all good 3rd party games appearing on Xbox One, which is my favorite system
And none of the people in this thread have said anything to imply that we're actively supporting them not bringing the games to the system, it's not a console wars kind of thing. It's more just objectively considering the facts of what's on the table at this point.
Exactly this.
I think a lot of people got the wrong idea with my original post. I'm not against the game coming to Xbox One or other consoles. In fact its a good thing for consumers as it provides more choice.
However, from a business point of view I just dont see why its on Xbox in the west and even PS3 to some extent.
I've followed Koei for a very long time and can tell you right now that the Xbox One version just won't sell much, especially when you consider this is a niche game in the first place that wont see many sales on any platform in the west.
I think Koei have made a mistake by listening to the vocal minority on social media. There have been some people complaining about lack of Xbox version in the west over recent koei games and I think that through facilitated discussion between Koei Europe and Japan we now have more games coming to the west on xbox. Koei seem to have forgotten the reason they stopped Xbox in the first place though, because no one buys it. So not sure why they"re experimenting with that again. No doubt in 2017 we'll see no Xbox games from Koei when they realise it was a loss for them.
What if MS is shelling out money to them?
