Last weekI talked abouta new mystery DS game by the guys who createdDynasty Warriors(otherwise known as the greatest cultural event since Dio’sHoly Diver).Famitsuhas shed further light on Omega Force’s new project, and even though it’s set in medieval Asia once again, it is in fact a new IP that doesn’t have the word “Warriors” anywhere near the title.
Saihai no Yukueis the title of this new game, which can be translated intoThe Baton’s Whereabouts. It’s probably not the catchiest of names and something I can’t see sticking when/if it hits the West. This new IP is being described as an adventure game in which real-life Sengoku period warlord Mitsunari Ishida builds his Western Army in war-torn Japan. Here’s hoping this is more along the lines ofKessenthanFatal Inertiain terms of quality. Koei could always use another good IP.
