Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII PS2 comments

This game is the next in the historical simulation series “Romance of the Three Kingdoms”, set in the famous Three Kingdoms period of ancient China. In addition to retaining a popular function from the previous title in the series – the ability to play as any Officer - Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 will also incorporate plenty of new features to make it the very best game of its kind.

This simulation game is set in the “Three Kingdoms” period at the end of the second and the beginning of the third centuries AD, during which three heroes emerged from the chaos of the Chinese Han dynasty to form their own separate kingdoms. The user is able to select a scenario of his choice from a timeline that stretches from the Yellow Turban Rebellion of 184 to the “Three Kingdoms Period” when the Wu, Wei and Shu forces vied with each other for control of China.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 will retain a popular feature of the previous title in the series – the ability to play as any Officer. New additional aspects include personal relationships between characters, such as “Marriage” and “Sworn Brother,” which bring each Officer vividly to life. A large increase in the number of events means the game can be played again and again with little repetition in the storylines – even when playing as the same Officer.
