Secret Plans, Decisive Battles, and Political Intrigue Headed to the Highly-Anticipated Title
Hertfordshire, 4th October 2021 – During Saturday’s TOKYO GAME SHOW 2021 ONLINE livestream, KOEI TECMO and developer Omega Force revealed the release date and exciting new information to the latest game in their highly-revered DYNASTY WARRIORS franchise: DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires. The strategic battle experience will release across Europe on February 15, 2022 for the Nintendo Switch™, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles, Windows PC via Steam®, PlayStation®4, and digitally on PlayStation®5*. An action-packed new trailer was also released alongside the announcement today, providing a first look at the title in action.
Combining the 1 vs. 1,000 action of DYNASTY WARRIORS with the addition of tactical elements, DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires sets players on a quest to conquer ancient China by combining use of strategy and the sword. Battles have dramatically changed from previous titles in the series thanks to the new feature: “Storming the Castle”. With areas around castles now turned into battlefields, skirmishes evolve into “Storming the Castle” encounters, with players battling to take control of the castle. Players will also be able to utilise “Siege Battles with Troops” in order to invade the enemy’s base, taking advantage of siege weapons while giving instructions to troops during battle. Once players break through an enemy’s gate, they will enter a “Decisive Battle” and can claim victory after defeating the commander. Although all the enemy officers will re-join the battlefield for one last fierce resistance, players will have a chance to defeat and capture them.
Another element that will greatly influence battle will be “Secret Plans”. “Secret Plans” selected in the battle preparation phase will now be activated as missions during battles, with each “Secret Plan” having its own conditions for success and failure. Once the success conditions are fulfilled, favourable effects on allies will be activated including “capture surrounding bases”, “defeat messengers”, “escort the engineers” and more. Each battle is highlighted by offense and defence centring on how to activate “Secret Plans”, providing a highly strategic battle experience. Conversely, enemies can also perform “Secret Plans”. By preventing the enemy’s “Secret Plans”, players will gain an advantage in battle.
Army Affinity will also play a key role in DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires, with each officer’s unit having a military unit type assigned to them as a new officer characteristic. All three units will have their strengths and weaknesses: Infantry < Archer < Cavalry < Infantry. When a unit fights against opponents at an advantage, more damage can be given and the damage taken can be reduced. However, when a unit fights against opponents under disadvantages, the situation will be reversed. In addition, each military unit has its special effects: Infantry can attack siege weapons more effectively, Cavalry can cause more damage to enemy headquarters, and Archer can perform simultaneous attacks.
Aside from battle, the political intrigue and domestic system popular to the Empires series will also be included. Following the kingdom goals set once every half year, the kingdom a player belongs to strives to unify China. Each month, players will be able to give commands to search for new officers to join the kingdom, purchase arrows and items, and execute a variety of military, economic and diplomatic commands depending on the player’s position.
KOEI TECMO Europe also revealed that fans of the DYNASTY WARRIORS series will be able to get their hands on a special DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires 20th Anniversary BOX version of the game, exclusively available through the KOEI TECMO Europe Online Store. This must-have anniversary box contains a 20th anniversary character artbook, a pack of 94 character cards with a display stand, the game’s soundtrack, and a copy of DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires, all packaged into a Dynasty Warriors themed collector’s box. To learn more about this special edition, and future offerings, be sure to sign-up to the KOEI TECMO Europe Online Store mailing list.
*By purchasing the digital or physical PlayStation®4 versions of DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires, you can receive an upgrade to the digital PlayStation®5 version of DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires at no additional cost.

Aeon Drive is an action game whose focus is on “speedrunning”. The indie market is flooded with “the Dark Souls of metroidvania” kind of action games, which makes Aeon Drive a breath of fresh air. Aeon Drive is a type of time trial action game. Time trials are normally a bonus mode in many action games, with the player trying to complete an area or set of bosses as fast as possible. Don’t be fooled by this simple premise, though; Aeon Drive is a full fledged game and features platforming and combat with a pacing that can be so fast, your eyes may be unable to follow the action sometimes.
Story
Trying to escape from a war in her home dimension, our protagonist Jackelyne -or Jack for short- is forced to make a transdimensional leap. She ends up in a Blade Runner-esque Barcelona. As she enters Neo Barcelona, her ship is immediately hit by a defensive cannon, spreading her ship’s unstable dimensional cores all over the place and forcing her to make a crash-land. As she lands, she is immediately captured by Neo Barcelona’s security forces. Now, with the help of her robot drone friend Vera, she must escape prison and retrieve her ship’s parts before they explode along with the entire planet.
Gameplay
Aeon Drive ditches the old action game formula of going through a stage, collecting upgrades and/or currency, defeating a boss and whatnot in favor of something more direct and simple. The objective of the game is to reach the end of the stage before the time runs out. You have 30 seconds to rush through a given stage and get to the goal; along the way, there will be enemies and other obstacles that Jack must negotiate in order to accomplish this. Jack can swing her sword, jump, slide, climb walls and the most important ability of all: throwing her dagger. Due to the ship’s crash, the dimensional leap and everything else that transpired, Vera’s now able to teleport Jack for short distances. To do this, Jack uses a dagger that she can throw in all eight directions. Wherever the dagger sticks, Vera is able to teleport Jack instantly to that point. This teleporting ability is vital to completing the stages and is also the main feature of the game, allowing the player to go through the stages as fast as lightning.
To help the player along the way, Jack can collect time capsules. These are the only collectible items that can be used during gameplay and when enough time capsules are collected, you can replenish five seconds of your remaining time. There are other items in the game. They’ll unlock entries in the gallery mode among other things.
At a first glance, Aeon Drive may seem like a difficult game that is intended for high level or professional esports players. This couldn’t be farther from reality; although you can’t choose a specific difficulty, Aeon Drive is a very accessible and simple game. I’d even go as far to say that’s a fairly easy game if your only intention is completing the main campaign. There’s even an option to disable the time limit; it’s a nice addition that allows players to enjoy the game at their own pace. It can also be used as practice mode of sorts if you’re trying to find the best route to reach the goal faster.
Neo Barcelona consists of 10 areas subdivided into 10 stages. Each area has their own visual themes and music. The stages are very short and lack a bit of creativity in their design; even then, they’re still fun to complete.
The real challenge in Aeon Drive is placing high in the leaderboards but that’s completely optional. There’s also an option to tackle the stages with 3 more players cooperatively or to engage in PvP to see who’s the fastest. Currently, the game doesn’t have an online mode, but fortunately it’s getting implemented in the game soon according to the developers.
The game’s controls are responsive enough, and the overall difficulty maintains a steady pace, only turning up the heat significantly after the player has already progressed through a good chunk of the game; this inconsistency in the game difficulty and minor issue with a lack of variety in the overall level design are the only faults that I think subtracts from the game’s overall quality.
Visuals
Aeon Driver’s pixel graphics are simple but well made. They not only lay the playground efficiently, but are also pleasant to the eyes with well defined sprites. Jack’s sprite and animations are well done and cute, making her look like a chibi Strider Hiryu. The landscapes of Neo Barcelona are also handled with care. Some of them were even modeled after real places in Spain and were edited to look as if they were set on an 80’s cyberpunk movie.
Audio
Featuring synthwave music, Aeon Drive’s soundtrack complements the fast action and overall 80’s feel perfectly. 80’s themes and music are already tired tropes in indie video games, but Aeon Drive’s music score is masterfully composed; it never stops, never gets boring, and last but not least, doesn’t interfere with the game’s flow in a negative way.
Overall
In my experience, “speedrunning” games aren’t the most prolific of action games variants. Aeon Drive is not only an excellent representative of this sub-genre in terms of gameplay but also has a lot of care put into its presentation. It reminds me of the NES era games where the basic requirements for enjoying a game were turning the power on and pressing the start button without the need to sit through countless dialogues and cutscenes.

Exciting reveal trailer shows off blend of high-octane intergalactic racing and personal sci-fi story
Tolochenaz, Switzerland – October 4th, 2021 – 110 Industries is thrilled to announce that Red Goes Faster, a sci-fi racer offering a complementary contrast between exhilarating racing and an intriguing love-triangle-infused story, is heading to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC.
In Red Goes Faster, players take on the role of Leon Garcia, an aspiring young racer who takes part in intergalactic races by day and explores his home planet of Keplar by night. Players will spend their time between races visiting a rich variety of establishments where they will hang out with Leon’s friends and find themselves trying to untangle a complicated love triangle.
Racing is Leon’s only way off his home planet of Keplar, a world that once seemed full of promise. Prospective colonists were promised an exciting new life complete with wellness programs, office perks, health insurance and a whole lot more by the corporations preparing to profit from the planet. Then they realised Keplar was worthless. The promises of an idyllic new life evaporated and the corporations headed back home.
Leon’s grandparents were among those that made the decision to stay, but he wants out. His road to winning the Keplar Super Trofeo will be complicated by his high school rival and his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, but he’s determined that he won’t miss his only chance to get off this rock.
“We are really excited to be bringing Red Goes Faster to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC,” said Sergei Kolobashkin, Founder and Creative Director at 110 Industries. “The mix of racing and adventure that the game offers is really bringing something new to the table and we can’t wait to share more details.”
