Samurai Warriors 3 will be coming exclusively to the Wii platform, Nintendo announced today. Forming a partnership with Tecmo Koei for the release of Samurai Warriors 3, Nintendo announced some details for the release on the Wii in North America. The game was previously released in Japan in December 2009.
From Nintendo:
"Launching in North America in fall 2010, Samurai Warriors 3 is an evolution of the Warriors series, featuring an innovative new game mode and a completely fresh storyline.
In addition to a host of new characters and combat and game-play elements, the game also will test players with new tactical and strategic challenges on the battlefield.
Samurai Warriors 3 offers two-player online and offline co-op with enhanced sharing features. The game also uses a special new game mode that offers players unique control of characters never seen before. This game mode is based on the Famicom game Nazo no Murasamejo (The Mysterious Murasame Castle™) inspired by Nintendo video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto."
