It's confirmed. So I can kinda translate the excerpt.
Taira no Kiyomori's weapon is a big rosary
Taigong Wang's weapon is a fishing rod
New stages include Mt. Kunlun, Chang Sha and Okehazama (Can't translate the other 2)
New enemies such as boars that stand with 2 legs.

OK...

Taira no Kiyomori, wonder why he's in? He exsited like at least 200 years before the SW cast.

Jiang Ziya.... wonder what he did too?

Two more characters....nice.

Hell, it would be nice if the Orochi series became its own storyline that eventually focused more on the "Gods" and Orochi, and the regular Musou personalities were just there for eye-candy and fanservice. :D

The 2nd, Jiang_Ziya certainly seems mythological so may well serve the Orochi forces, not sure on the other though.

Thanks for the info BK. ^_^

Looks like the 90+ character rumor may well be true looking at new guys like this!

All I could want at this point are Susanoo and Amaterasu. That would give Fu Xi and Nu Wa basically "Japanese" equivalents that could also be rolling with them. Plus, Susanoo should be the guy to mainly take down Orochi any way...

But in any case, MO:R is quickly becoming one of my upcoming "games to look forward to" for 2008. And to think this year's just barely getting started...! :D

This week's Famitsu excerpt (Not 100% reliable. Take with a grain of salt until 100% confirmed)

無双OROCHI 魔王再臨
・平清盛。巨大な数珠で豪腕爆砕
・太公望。釣竿が武器
・新ステージ、崑崙山、楼桑村、長沙、桶狭間、えん州
・敵に、二足歩行のイノシシや忍者
・プレミアムボックス 10,290円

無双やってないから新情報なのかどうかよく解らんすw

If this is true, then Taira no Kiyomori and Taigong Wang will be included here.

Taira no Kiyomori is Taira no Kiyomori's real name. :lol:

:o Really? I thought the "no" was put in there as a historical respect thing, kinda like Izumo no Okuni.

Kinda an odd choice for weapons for those 2 guys. You'd think that Gracia would be the one to wield a giant rosary...

Knowing Koei though, they'll probably call him Kiyomori Taira in the western release.

Then they would have to use Wang Taigong as well... or else >_<

I don't think that will happen. That reverse name thing seems to be only for the Japanese characters.

KOEI uses First Name - Surname for the JP characters and Surname - First Name for Chinese characters... So lol BK! :lol:

I´m a little bit disappointed that there are 2 new guys. They look great and all but I hoped that there is at least one female character in this update guess I have to wait until the next update

Huh. I'm kinda surprised that Taira no Kagekiyo didn't make the cut. He wasn't related to the Taira clan by blood but he served the clan well as a supreme warrior amongst their ranks that he gained membership into the clan. His real name was Fujiwara no Kagekiyo. Guess I play too much Genji.

Read up on Taigong Wang. Pretty cool guy. Can't say much about him. I think if I had to guess, Kiyomori might end up serving Orochi (check out the mini horns on his head!) while Wang might serve Fu Xi and Nu Wa or no one.

You win... I don't know but the name orders in Warriors Orochi is extremely stupid. I mean Samurai Warriors with First-Surname Order and Dynasty Warriors with Sur-Firstname order...

I always wondered maybe if the Western Koei branches actually thought that the name orders were actually correct? Say for Zhao Yun, maybe they actually think that Zhao is the first name and Yun the last name. Who knows. Just a thought that passed through.

Because why would they bother to switch around the Japanese names but not the Chinese name?

Wooohooo, Kiyomori and Taigong Wang. Please add Yoshitsune and Yoshimoto too!! And please add Hua Mulan !!! Maybe KOEI want to make until 100 characters for this game.

"楼桑村、長沙、桶狭間、えん州" is this the new stages?
The first is:........mura
The second is: Naga......
The third: maybe Okehazama
The fourth: 'enshu'??? え(e)ん(n)州(shu, from the kanji of KyuSHU)

When I saw the new stage Itsukushima, I remember about Kiyomori, the red gate on the middle of river or sea was made by Kiyomori but I confused, why there is Itsukushima without any relation between Orochi and Kiyomori. But now it's right! Kiyomori!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Itsukushima!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
