TGS 09: Dynasty Warriors Online coming to PS3 photo

Hell yeah! Koei has today announced that Dynasty Warriors Online is coming to the PlayStation 3 in 2010, bringing the previously PC-exclusive DW game to consoles for the first time. Dynasty Warriors Online is a free-to-play hack n' slash MMO, with Koei generating revenue from in-game items that can be purchased by players. 

Dynasty Warriors fans in the West have long-since waited for some real online play in their DW games, and a PS3 version of the game brings we fans outside of Japan one step closer. Koei nearly always brings its console games across the ocean, so could DW Online finally make its way West? One can certainly hope. 

At the very least, we could now learn Moon Speak and import the PS3 version.

about time. I was hoping we'd get the online game for quite some time.

at least it's possible in some way now...well in a easier way.

Almost makes up for Warriors Orochi Z not coming here. Almost.
Also need to announce SW3 on 360 and PS3 so the bitching can end.

just import Warriors orochi Z. It's not that hard to navigate around the menus.

and people are actually bitching about SW3 not being announced yet on the 360 and PS3? people apparently don't know how Tecmo and Koei do market.

"Koei generating revenue from in-game items that can be purchased by players."

Isn't that what happened with D&D online, and it sucked because of it.

Yes, but that was a time sink RPG.

This is just a mindless hack n' slash that you can play for 30 minute sessions. I don't think it'll matter.

This would be sick if we got hundreds of players on a battlefield at the same time duking it out DW style. So much chaos that I'd love it.

This is the best News today :)
I hope, there will be Online modes like "Deathmatch" and like "Team-Deathmatch" , for example 8 vs 8 , or 12 vs 12 , similar like in the game "Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare".

Would be a good oppertunity to test my skillls among other Dynasty Warriors players ;)
