DMM and Koei Tecmo released another trailer of their upcoming Musou game Touken Ranbu Warriors.
The trailer introduces another of the playable characters that we’ll find in the game, Date Masam… ahem… Shokudaikiri Mitsutada, including both gameplay and cutscenes. It’s the latest of a series of trailers introducing several characters, on top of Ichigo Hitofuri, Namazuo Toushirou, Hyuuga Masamune, Heshikiri Hasebe, Yagen Toushirou, Tomoegata Naginata, and Tsurumaru Kuninaga.
He’s voiced by Takuya Sato, whom you probably know as Alphen in Tales of Arise, Abel in Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE, Machias Regnitz in Trails of Cold Steel, and many more characters mostly fitting the cool guy trope.
You can check the trailer out below.
Here’s how Koei Tecmo officially describes Touken Ranbu Warriors. You can also watch the latest gameplay trailer.
If you’re not familiar with the game, it was announced back in August by DMM and it’ll come west directly via Koei Tecmo on May 24, 2022. Touken Ranbu is a popular franchise based on a PC browser game mostly aimed at an audience of ladies in which the player travels to the past and collects legendary swords represented by handsome young men.
The franchise has sparked multiple anime series, a live-action movie, and other media.
This new game is developed by Omega Force, known for its work on Warriors games, and Ruby Party, Koei Tecmo’s otome games brand (Otome games are visual novels usually featuring harems of handsome men aimed to an audience of ladies, like Touken Ranbu).
At the moment, the game appears to be coming only for Switch in the west, the PC version in Japan uses DMM’s own client which is not available in North America and Europe.
