About BLADESTORM: THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR
In the early half of the 14th century a quarrel over English succession to the French throne escalated into what history would come to know as the Hundred Years' War. In 2007, KOEI's upcoming video game, BLADESTORM: THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR will bring to life the intensity and drama of a war-torn Medieval Europe featuring a rich tapestry of legendary characters including Joan of Arc and Prince Edward- later to be called the Black Prince.
Utilizing a brand new game engine attainable only through the power of next-generation hardware, the game's armies will collide on the battlefield at an unprecedented scale. Countless numbers of fearless soldiers will clash on screen in ferocious battles, where tactics and cunning will combine with valor and might to determine who is left standing when the dust settles on one of history's most epic conflicts.
