Hisashi Koinuma mentioned back in 2012 that he aims to have the fourth installment of the Samurai Warrior series to release on February 2014, which coincides with the 10-year anniversary of Samurai Warriors series.
"Amazon has added new game deals for August 17th. Deals are Assassin’s Creed Chronicles $10, The Golf Club: Collector's Edition $13, Samurai Warriors 4 Empires $20 and lots more!"
This problem that was partially fixed when Koei released 4-II, but what about the original? Having already played Dynasty Warriors and Orochi Warriors 3, Bit Cultures was excited to get into the Samurai Warriors series for the first time and see the characters that had already been introduced to in their stories.
Amazon has discounted Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires (20% off to $39.99 on Xbox One), Samurai Warriors 4 Special Anime Pack (34% off to $49.36 on PS4) and Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (40% off to $23.99 on PS4).
I hope this game comes to the PS4!
