The Dynasty Warriors franchise, known for its unique "1 vs 1,000" gameplay, is set to make a comeback with Dynasty Warriors: Origins after seven years. This latest entry takes advantage of next-gen console capabilities, allowing as many as 10,000 opponents to appear on-screen simultaneously, fulfilling its original gameplay vision. Despite historically selling better in Japan, early sales reports from the UK and Steam demonstrate a potential shift in Western interest. Developer Omega Force is optimistic about this title's reception, marking a pivotal moment for the long-standing series since its original release in 1997.
"Dynasty Warriors has always sold significantly better in Japan than in the West... But times may be changing, as the release of Dynasty Warriors: Origins in January 2025 has seen encouraging sales."
"With the power of modern consoles enabling as many as 10,000 opponents on-screen at once, the '1 vs 1,000' moniker is finally coming true."
"After seven years in the wilderness, publisher Koei Tecmo is back with Dynasty Warriors: Origins, which has broken the top 10 of the retail sales charts in the UK."
"While there have been nine numbered entries since 1997, advances in hardware mean now is the time for a sequel, rather than a reboot of the series."
