Warriors: Legends of Troy

Warriors: Legends of Troy (TROY無双, Troy Musou) is a game announced by Koei at E3 in 2009. It is being made to appeal to Western players who don't like the Three Kingdoms setting from Dynasty Warriors. Even the creators are not fans of the series and are working to invigorate the hack-and-slash system from previous titles.

To remove the redundancy that may come from the older system, players can use various methods and tactics to gain an advantage over their opponents. They can use stealth, surprise attacks and other tactics during their assualt. Characters are also not limited to one weapon and can use their shield, javelin, boulders and other soldiers to thrash their foes. The game will emphasize four-man, online play for unlocking items and completing missions with collaborative teamwork. Unlike other titles, this game will also be much grittier and rustic than other Warriors titles and will include blood and gore.

Players can side with heroes from either side of the 10 Year Trojan War as their stories are told through an oral narrative, similar to how it would have been during the game's setting. The developers are using The Iliad as the game's base, but they are also aiming to include mythological information from other sources.
