Over 100 River City characters come together in River City Saga: Three Kingdoms Next, which begins after the Battle of Red Cliffs. According to Arc System Works, the game’s story will head toward the climax of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms novel, the Battle of Wuzhang Plains. Once more, Kunio will take on the role of the hero of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu.
Here’s an overview of the new game, via Steam:
Overview
In River City Saga: Three Kingdoms, we had our beloved hero Kunio as Guan Yu wander throughout the warring states of feudal China. The story picks up from the aftermath of the Battle of Red Cliffs and continues on until it reaches its historical climax at the Battle of Wuzhang Plains. With a total of 100 unique River City characters, the story will not end without a crazy, comic twist.
The unheard Romance of the Three Kingdoms
More and more generals join the Liu Bei army to rival the stronger Cao Cao army. As both camps ramp up their forces, discover a never-seen-before alternative telling of the novel, obviously rearranged by Kunio and his friends.
Ride Red Hare and trample your opponents!
You can now ride Red Hare and go through the stages on its back! Just ride through anyone who dares stand in your way. And since it’s a bike, you can also find extra parts to customize it and give it the looks it deserves! Word has it that you may also find more than just bike parts, to make your Red Hare… more than a bike?
Spectacular Tactics and Special attacks
Tactics are emblematic of the Three Kingdoms warfare lore. Of course the Fire Tactics is still in the game, sending fiery arrows into the stage, and so is the Water Tactics that will wash away any enemies who come at you. But this time, we have added a new Tactics that summons generals who helped you in the past, to fight by your side. Use your Special attacks and Tactics to clear out stages the way generals used to (or did they?)!
