Well the Famitsu article has the disclaimer at the bottom stating all screenshots are from Vita version.
(The △□ buttons gives it away anyway).

Nah, the very resolution of the pics is a much more evident sign it's not 3DS, even without the buttons, but yeah, no doubt about those screens being from PS Vita!
Wow, I thought the SWC3 pics were up-resed 3DS graphics, but it's actually native Vita...
I had no idea SW4 looked like that on PSV, and it does indeed look close to what we have on SWC3.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Hmmm so using Vita as base, looks more or less about the same as SW4 on Vita:

Nice to see the Vita is probably the lead platform.
Now to wait to see what on earth makes this different than SW4, lol

I don't think that a leading Vita version would have so bad low res effects, look at SW4 for example:Hmmm so using Vita as base, looks more or less about the same as SW4 on Vita:
Anyway musou games graphics on Vita become worse and worse imo, Dynasty Warriors Next is still the best looking musou on Vita
Here's what Sengoku Musou Chronicle 2nd on 3DS looked like, in case you've forgotten.

Official website is launched, but there's nothing really new there.
It confirms that this is a brand new entry, unlike SWC 2nd.

Some more screenshots from the website, mentions What if scenarios (can anyone translate?).
What If scenarios: what if Yoshimoto Imagawa had surivved the Battle of Okehazama, what if Shingen Takeda had reached the capital. They confirm you'll be able to have 4 characters, though some missions got less playable characters. Looks like there's a Time-Attack mode, which will have some online leaderboards. There's going to be a class system for that mode, and you'll get rewards based on the performance of your class?

It literally says "what if" scenarios are to be implemented, just as recent Warriors series.
Like, in DW8 if you play as Lu Bu you end up being killed disregarding how well you play (because that's how he died according to the history book), but on second play through there were branches to the scenario where you can survive instead of being killed, ultimately conquering the entire China.
MagiusNecros
Gilgamesh Fan Annoyance
Hypothetical scenarios they call them.
Great, thanks a bunch.
What about the rest of the page though? The part with the 4 generals is ok, but the end with the classes and stuff really confused me.
Yeah the second part is you can switch between 4 characters. The rest reads like this:
- Renbukan mode: This mode is imported from Samurai Warriors expansion that is all-you-can-beat during limited amount of time. (Infinite castle in English version? I'm not so sure..)
- Score ranking: Much more improved that players are to be divided into classes with promotion and demotion chances every week, and high-score rewards are to be determined class by class, giving chances to noobs to be rewarded as well.
Thanks, that's very helpful. Gonna add that to the OP asap.

The Vita screens look pretty good, what you would expect for a Vita Musou game.
I am kinda interested in seeing how the 3DS version looks like. While the original Chronicles game wasn't bad, it definitely didn't look that great.

As in the Survival mode from SW2, used to unlock Ranmaru?
Ok, 4Gamer.net finally got some direct-feed screenshots for the PS Vita version. I fear we're never gonna see the 3DS version until launch

Thanks.
Looks maybe a little worse then SW4, 3DS should be lead plattform.

They had a 4 pages feature on Famitsu and not a single 3DS screenshot, lol.

If localized then I'm" on this, I'll never complain about more Musou.
