Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII: Fame and Strategy Expansion Unveiled
Koei Tecmo today announced the upcoming release of Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII: Fame and Strategy Expansion Pack. Arriving on April 25th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC via Steam, the add-on will offer players a variety of new strategic options as they witness the tale of a collapsing dynasty and fight to unify China.
The upcoming expansion’s release also marks the first time that the grand-strategy experience will be available on Xbox One, as a digital bundle including both Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII and the Fame and Strategy Expansion Pack. This bundle option will also be available for the digital PlayStation 4 and PC versions of the game.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII: Fame and Strategy Expansion Pack introduces new mechanics to the series that allow for greater strategic possibilities. One of these additions is the Fame System, wherein players work towards receiving bonuses for their characters by completing achievements, which range from battlefield objectives to peacefully resolving disputes. Players can also earn a Prestige title for their character through the Fame System, which will unlock new actions based on their Prestige level and ultimately shape life as an officer.
Also arriving with the new expansion is the War Council, which is held before engaging in battle. With this feature Generals are able to choose which Officers will follow them into combat and which strategies they will apply to outsmart their opponent. Furthermore, players will now be able to create their own scenarios with the Event Editor. This tool allows unique narratives to be crafted within second century China and offers full control over when Events take place, which officers are affected and whether there will be multiple outcomes.
