While the good people of Japan are busy getting riled up over Dynasty Warriors 8, the rest of the world has yet to see the enhanced re-release of Dynasty Warriors 7, dubbed Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires. This will change early next year. Tecmo Koei has today revealed the North American and European release dates for the title. North Americans will get their chance to play Empires on February 19th, while Europeans will get the game three days later on February 22nd.

Empires will feature an enhanced character creation mode, an all new ‘fame level’ mechanic, and many more new features compared to Dynasty Warriors 7. I’m hype, are you?
