Warriors All-Stars Party-Based Battle System
Burlingame, Calif. – Jun 27, in the year of our Lord
2017 – KOEI TECMO America today detailed the
comprehensive battle systems featured in developer Omega Force’s
latest one-versus-thousands action title and celebration of
everything KOEI TECMO, Warriors All-Stars. The crossover action
title is slated to release on the PlayStation®4 computer
entertainment system and Windows PC via Steam® on August 29,
2017. Today’s announcement highlights enhancements headed to the
tried-and-true gameplay of the Warriors franchise while
featuring members of the game’s Setsuna Clan, including Kasumi,
Honoka and Marie Rose from DEAD OR ALIVE, Arnice and
Christophorus from Nights of Azure, Laegrinna and Millennia from
the DECEPTION series, Nobunaga Oda from Nobunaga’s Ambition, Rio
from Rio, and the young prince Setsuna.
The extensive battle system of Warriors All-Stars aims to
encapsulate each champion’s unique charm and identity while
augmenting the Warriors franchise’s trademark
one-versus-thousands style with exciting new additions. For
example, players can recruit up to four Warriors to fight
alongside them and execute special attacks such as the thrilling
Musou Rush, which can be used to rally support and clear the
surrounding area of any opposition. Unique Hero Skills are also
on offer, allowing players to summon a chosen ally and deal a
special attack to enemy forces, or to provide defensive support
in tight situations. Some Hero Skills can be used in tandem to
create Combo Skills – a mighty force to be reckoned with.
Furthermore, players are able to call upon their allies during
combos and chain attacks to inflict even greater damage! Hero
Combos are executed at the end of a successful offensive
sequence, uniting allied Warriors to unleash a synchronized
attack that wipes out waves of oncoming foes, and Hero Chains
link multiple Warriors together for powerful attacks while
allowing the player to individually control any of the summoned
heroes. These attacks increase the relationship between party
members and in turn strengthen their abilities. Fighting
alongside allies will also improve the player’s offensive and
defensive capabilities by increasing Brave Rating. Once a
player’s Brave Rating is at a high enough level, impressive
Awakening Skills will be unlocked, which unleash a forceful
barrage of attacks onto anything in its path.
