Koei Tecmo Europe began streaming a new trailer for Warriors All-Stars that highlights the characters from the "Sestuna Clan": Kasumi, Honoka, and Marie Rose from the Dead or Alive series, Arnice and Christophorus from the Nights of Azure series, Laegrinna and Millennia from the Deception series, Nobunyaga Oda from Samurai Cats/Nobunyaga no Yabō, Rio from the Rio pachinko games and Rio - Rainbow Gate! anime, and original character Setsuna. The trailer showcases their different fight styles and abilities.

Koei Tecmo America will release the game in North America on PlayStation 4 and digitally for PC via Steam on August 29. Koei Tecmo Europe will release the game in Europe for the same platforms on September 1. The companies did not announce a Western release for the PlayStation Vita version of the game.
