About ROMANCE OF THE THREE
KINGDOMS XI

From legendary video game producer
Kou Shibusawa comes his next historical simulation masterpiece. Rediscover an
ancient civilization with an explosive history in the most stunning edition of
Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Set during the end of China’s Han
Dynasty and the 2nd and 3rd centuries A.D., RTK XI presents the most visually
captivating evolution in the history of the series. Blurring the line between
video games and art, RTK XI features visuals evocative of classical Chinese
ink-paintings along with debates and duels rendered in real-time 3D animation.

As the ruler of a kingdom, each
player will have complete control over their territories. More than 40 base
commands give players the power to govern cities, manage their personnel,
practice diplomacy and much more. Complete freedom to develop markets,
shipyards, outposts, forts and military units expand on the already substantial
benchmarks established by previous editions of the series. Furthermore, players
will watch the era come to life through the uniquely individual personalities of
the more than 780 officers and supporting characters they will encounter.

Players will need to dig deep within
to prove themselves adept at both the military and political arts in order to
bring China under one rule. Domestic affairs, diplomacy and warfare are all
conducted on a single vast 3D relief map, dramatically bringing to life the
eight massive scenarios that lie before them.

For improved control over each
military campaign, RTK XI’s turn-based game play allows the player to plan their
movements without undue time constraints, and then execute their battle tactics
when ready. RTK XI also introduces an entirely new system for researching
military techniques, as well as an Advanced Tactics System that allows players
to drive or lure enemies into devastating ambushes. Skilled players will be able
to link together tactics for maximum damage.

Produced by Kou Shibusawa and
developed by KOEI Co., Ltd, Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI is rated "RP"
(Rating Pending) by the ESRB.
