Default Hokuto Musou aka Fist of the North Star Dynasty Warriors

This I didn't expect. It's for the PlayStation 3 and XBox 360 and will be released sometime during 2010.


Confirmed appearing characters so far are Kenshiro, Julia, Rei and Raoh.

This should be the most violent game ever made.

Cool, but I would've preferred this as a one on one fighting game like the last FOTNS. This manga/anime was made for Street Fighter type battles.

I don't know, there's already enough 1on1 fighters for this series... And the latest Arcade one is pretty dang good.


I think this is a nice change of pace.

Awesome! This kind of game will be awesome in the post-apocalyptic setting.

I hope Jagi is in it.

This game is gonna have the smallest list of characters Koei has dealt with in this genre.


Hopefully, that means more moves and such.

I'm not that familiar with it, but doesn't it have a pretty big cast?
