Some cool new assets for the upcoming Japanese action game Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends have been released.

These include a new game-play video, which runs for nearly eight minutes, showing the games opening, some cinematics and plenty of combat, as well as a new batch of screenshots, which also show the game's opening, some combat and some flashy attacks. A new female character is featured prominently in all of this stuff, so I'm guessing she'll be pretty important in the game.

Examine everything below.
