Koei Tecmo Europe began streaming two new highlight videos for its upcoming Warriors All-Stars crossover game on Monday and Wednesday. The videos highlight the characters Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden/Dead or Alive) and William (Nioh).
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.
