Sengoku Dynasty is an all-new adventure set against the backdrop of a Japan ravaged by famine and war during the Sengoku era.

Players will need to rise from a simple peasant to become a legend, as they secure their legacy and build their Kingdom.

Historically accurate and faithfully recreated alongside Japanese historians, players will need to choose the path of a charismatic leader, skilful craftsman, famed warrior or a spiritual master if they’re to succeed. For the first time in the Dynasty series players also won’t have to do it alone: Sengoku Dynasty offers a unique co-op mode that supports up to 4 players. As a host, players can invite friends or random players into their world and with their help, they can build, complete quests and fight challenging enemies to earn unique rewards.

All set against a stunning range of biomes, Sengoku Dynasty sees players explore ancient forests and snowy mountain peaks, to serene cherry groves and mist-covered hot springs. The visual power of Unreal Engine 5 brings the dramatic landscape of Sengoku Dynasty to life in stunning detail. The vast open world will embrace the changing seasons across multiple biomes which will see players explore ancient forests, serene cherry groves, mist-covered hot springs and snow-covered mountain terrain.

As players expand their influence across their Kingdom, they’ll be able to trade, forge romances, start a family, build a community and manage their villagers. They’ll also need to master key techniques to not only survive, but also meet their community’s needs. Whether that’s creating new tools, lodges or even mastering traditional Japanese weaponry, it will all be necessary to see your Kingdom thrive.

Historically accurate and faithfully recreated alongside Japanese history experts, are you ready to create your dynasty, and fulfil your destiny?
