It will feature graphical and game system upgrades. The map system has also been completely redesigned using a hex grid system and have added factors for combat including weather, terrain, and visibility.
The original game first debuted for the PC in Japan back in 2001, followed by releases for the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable. The game was released in North America in 2003. Koei Tecmo also released an expanded edition of the game, Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII with Power Up Kit. The expansion is available in North America on Steam, but only with Japanese and Chinese language support.
