The game features voiced generals from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series in a “turn-based combat game”.
Game description company:
Inspired by timeless classics like Shogi and Chess, Three Kingdoms HEROES combines turn-based combat with unique unit movements. Instead of numerical stats, units boast unique “Strategies” or “Skills,” reminiscent of generals in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Experience simple yet complex gameplay through the combination of these two mechanics!
In single-player mode, players can face off against AI”GYARU”, which is configured specifically for the game with multiple difficulties. Players can also face off against other opponents around the world in “seasonal matches” and “private matches”.
Strategy game The Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 REMAKE was released on October 24 in English digitally for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC via Steam.
