Kenji Sato, Director of River City Saga for players
“River City Saga: Three Kingdoms is finally out! Most people know the Three Kingdoms up to and including the Battle of the Red Cliff. However, the story that follows is also full of twists and turns. I wanted to give players the opportunity to discover the final chapters of the Three Kingdoms. If you’ve played this game and the previous River City Saga: Three Kingdoms, you’ll be strangely familiar with this classic. Hop on Red Hare to travel through this ancient world in River City style! Don’t miss the surprising twist at the end of this story.”
– Kenji Sato, Director, Arc System Works
Send your enemies waltzing with Red Hare!
Red Hare makes its appearance in the form of a motorcycle this time! Players can summon Red Hare when the gauge is full, enabling them to ride through levels on the bike, fending off hordes of enemies with power and class. The bike can also be customized by finding parts to suit your style. By fulfilling certain conditions, Red Hare can even evolve and become even more than a motorcycle!
The Three Kingdoms in unique River City style!
The story follows Liu Bei’s growing army and its intense battles against Cao Cao’s rival forces, culminating in the Battle of the Wuzhang Plains. It’s a chance to enjoy the Three Kingdoms with a comic twist, unique to the River City version of this story!
Incredible tactics and special attacks!
The battles of the Three Kingdoms are renowned for their powerful military tactics. They feature battles with a selection of unique tactics such as the“Freeze Tactic”, where sumo wrestlers hold the enemy immobile, or the“Earthquake Tactic“. With a skill tree system for learning these special attacks, players will be able to develop their own personal approaches to eliminating enemy armies in their path.
