Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening has been announced for the west

Koei Tecmo have announced that on July 20th, Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening will come to the west on PlayStation 4, Switch and PC. Check out the announcement trailer for the game below.

In this 16th entry in the popular Nobunaga’s Ambition series, players will experience the life of a daimyō, a powerful Japanese leader, in the troubled times of the Warring States Period, 16th century Japan. As the head of their own clan, players will have to make the best decisions in in key areas ranching from the economy, to diplomacy, and military might in hopes of eventually unifying the country. To do so, they will be supported by retainers, AI officers who think and act on their own judgement. Retainers will provide submissions to the players to help them plan their battle strategy.

One of the series’ most popular features, siege, also makes its comeback in NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening, but in an entirely new form. For the first time in the series, sieges will take place on a single map with different types of terrain and totally different castles or castle towns, allowing players to enjoy dynamic sieges and a new level of strategy. When attacking, players will need to decide where to break through and which route to take while, when defending, they will need to decide where to deploy defensive equipment and how to intercept the attacking force.

The games release will be a digital only title, meaning no in store purchase. Expect more details on the game to be released as we get closer to release.
