Having checked all of KOEI Warriors' screenshots, none of them feature new maps. Dian Wei's level, with lava (?) across the floor, is indeed Chen Cang (check the map in the corner and compare to DW5).

I'm checking through the trailer:

1:00 - Da Qiao, Zhao Yun and Sanada Yukimura interchange at Tedorigawa/Kusegawa.
1:17 - Xu Zhu, Ina and Lu Xun demonstrate the different categories of character specials
1:32 - Oichi at Hasedo
1:33 - Musashi in the top-right corner of what looks like a new level
1:34 - Xiao Qiao in the same level
1:35 - Zhao Yun, mounted in the same level, being pursued by Maeda Keiji
1:36 - Xiahou Dun in Edo Castle's main keep
1:36 - Lu Bu using his C1 at Odawara Castle
1:37 - Sun Quan in Edo Castle's main keep

From the trailer and the KW screenshots, the level from 1:33-1:35 is the only new one I've noticed. It might be a compund of other levels (as in DW5:XL's Legend Stages), but no stage exactly like it has appeared before.

If anyone has any more screenshots, or links to other screenshots, magazine scans or trailers which might shed light on these stages, please contribute!

This is very detailed! Thanks for such a precious information! :)

superDioplus, thank you as well for the starting characters but is that only Sun Ce for Wu's story?

I'm inclined to believe that Sun Ce will probably get more comrades to join him, at least as long as he's working for the Orochi. At least his pal Zhou Yu should be there with him too...

Also, I'm hoping that there are some more secrets than what people just know at the outset. No CAW, and no other extras to speak of would hopefully entail that they're just going to go all out with characters. This game needs all the replay value it can stand to recieve, or else it may end up coming up short...

Apparently, yes it seems so, but I'm not sure either.

On the official site it looks like there's a single branch after the first level for each faction. I'm reading that right (i.e one starting level then 2-7 level stories) or are the yellow stages individual and not connected?

Not everything is known now, but this is what was basically stated by a 2channer who supposedly got the game early...

Supposedly, each faction will have 15 stages total, 8 legit and 7 "dreams". Dream stages are also a means of supposedly getting other characters.

What I'm perhaps most glad to hear is that this game is seemingly living up to the promise of being tougher than the average Musou game. With a new character on hard mode, you'll die in one hit from a Peon/Soldier. Excellent...!

They are called sub-stages, actually, not dream. I'm guessing they're technically "gaiden," side plots of other characters doing things elsewhere during the main storyline.

So, in other words, these other stages may indeed be the "alternate routes" that were mentioned, which can be unlocked/chosen much in the way of SRW?

Alright, I can deal with that...

Maybe no.

you know i was thinking, pressing select is to call your horse, by the way thats just freakin cool as heck, then maybe they may still have all the buttons in


heres what im thinking, based on whats known so far.

L analog stick - move
R analog stick - move camera angle
L2 R2 - switch characters
L1 - block
R1 - do type skill
(4 face buttons i.e X O etc.) - well you know already
select - call horse


now what they have left would be good if they did this

*Pressing* L analog stick - roll
*Pressing* R analog stick - map change

all we would lose is musuo Rage from DW5, but from the looks of things im pretty sure that wasnt going to make it in anywho.

This has already been confirmed. Can only hope for the roll thing though, as I haven't heard anything about it yet.

Best feature so far = calling horse to your side using any character!

If and when you call your horse to your character, as you see it coming to you, the horse should run over any enemies in its path as it gets to you. That would be realistic and awesome.


Please rate my idea!!

You should be able to call forth or tell either unique officers, bodyguard, or your 2P friend playing with you in the game to be able to ride on the back of your horse while you're riding it! Wouldn't that be awesome?

Probably would be a great idea indeed.

Only problem? They probably wouldn't implement that this time around, considering we're probably already reaching the limits of what the PS2 Musou engine is capable of already. Probably will have to wait for the first Sangoku/Sengoku Musous that actually employ next-gen hardware.

Any way...speaking of horseback riding...is it known what happens if you try to call your horse...and some one else is riding it?

I'm just calling it right now...my friends are often bastards who like to make off with my horse, even if they have their OWN horse. Please tell me that calling my horse will either waylay their plans, or at least make me able to get my ride back as soon as they get off of it...

alright! thats sweet news.


yeah, lets hope for the roll movement for Pressed L analog stick.

i think it would be a better move than the original button

cuz L analog stick is for movement, your rolls would be faster, cuz to react you just press on the stick.

its a genius move that koei should do. ^_^

I disagree. If you pay close attention to DW5 (and possibly SW2), mini-maps are often recycled (or parts of them) on stages that in no way resemble the stages sharing the mini-map. In other words, Chen Cang and that lava stage may have the same mini-map, but the actual stage is completely different (other than where you can and can't walk which is what the mini-map outlines). You could be right as well, but I think it's too early to say definitively that it's just a rerender of Chen Cang.
