Tecmo Koei Announces Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 and Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires For Early Next Year

It’s time to start fighting again.  And by fighting we mean mowing down dozens of guards with ongoing attacks and super combo moves.

Tecmo Koei has announced that it will release a pair of upcoming sequels this coming February, focused on bringing more authentic brawling action as their original games have done.  Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 will make its debut on February 5th as an Xbox 360 retail game and a PlayStation Network downloadable title, while Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires will be released exclusively for PSN on February 26th.  Pricing hasn’t been given yet, but both are expected to be around the $59.99 range.

Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 will feature over 20 playable characters, as well as a new Dream Mode that introduces new storylines to the game and online co-op and versus play.  Meanwhile, Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires will feature over 60 (!) playable characters, along with a new Edit Mode, which lets you tweak weapons and character performance.

We’ll have previews on these games very soon!
