Commemorative Comment from Director Kenji Sato
“River City Saga: Three Kingdoms is out at last! People are mostly familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms tale up until the Battle of Red Cliffs. The story after that, however, is full of dramatic twists and turns as well. I wanted to give players a chance to enjoy the later chapters of the Three Kingdoms story. If you play this and the previous River City Saga: Three Kingdoms game, you might find yourself oddly familiar with the classic tale. Ride on Red Hare to travel through our River City take on the traditional world! Be sure to see for yourself the surprising twist at the end of the story.”
Send Enemies Flying with the New Red Hare Mechanic!
Red Hare makes an appearance as a motorcycle this time! You can summon Red Hare when the gauge is full, allowing you to travel through stages on the bike. Toss enemies aside as you make your way through the tide unscathed. Obtaining dedicated parts even lets you customize your Red Hare to your own personal style. Meeting certain conditions might even evolve Red Hare from a motorcycle into something… more?
A Uniquely River City Take on the Three Kingdoms Tale!
