- 『三國志8 REMAKE with パワーアップキット』先行実況プレイ動画と新コマンドおよび放浪軍の詳細情報を公開！ - 11 December 2025
・先行実況プレイ動画 ■新コマンドでさらに広がる無限の“三国志体験” 本作では、「宝珠」なしで実行できる新コマンドも多数追加されています。評定では、君主の座を他の武将に譲ることができる「譲位」、都督・太守が都市ごと別勢力に鞍替えする「寝返」など、ゲームの途中から違う立場でプレイしたり、戦略の状況を大きく変えたり、これまでとは違った武将プレイを楽しむことができます。 また、交流コマンドにも新たに「誘起」と「絶縁」が追加されます。「誘起」では、交流相手を頭領とした放浪軍を結成でき、「絶縁」では友人関係を解消し、義兄弟や夫婦の契りを反故にすることもできるようになります。さらに、都市コマンドとして、市場の商人を脅して金品を得る「押借」が追加。勢力に所属した武将しか実行できない「略奪」とは違い、金まわりに苦労する在野の身でも実行できますが、同時に悪名も上昇します。 ■新たな選択肢で放浪軍の頭領プレイがさらに充実！ 専用エンディングも追加 本作では、放浪軍の頭領プレイにも新たな要素が追加されます。放浪軍には新たに「威勢」が追加され、有力武将の登用や賊などとの戦闘で勝利すると「威勢」が上昇します。「威勢」を一定まで高めると放浪軍専用エンディングを迎えられます。また、「威勢」を高めると専用の強力な「宝珠」も獲得できます。例えば、離れた都市に出陣できる「神出鬼没」、一気に複数の都市へ賊を呼び出すことができる「賊軍扇動」などがあります。「神出鬼没」で守りの手薄な後方の都市を狙ったり、「賊軍扇動」で賊を呼び出し、自分で討伐して威勢を高めたり、他勢力を弱めたりなど、より自由なプレイができるようになり、本作でしか体験できない”放浪軍プレイ”を楽しめます。 また、三国志の後期を中心とした追加イベントやムービーをはじめ、新たな奇才、架空配偶者、さらには武将に与えることができる「官職」など、さまざまな要素を数多く追加しています。

- A remake of strategy classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 has proven divisive among its fanbase - 5 November 2024
Romance of the Three Kingdoms (RT3K) is a sprawling strategy series that has changed immensely over the four decades of entries Koei, now Koei Tecmo, has released since 1985. For its vast panoply of characters and broad gameplay where you focus on a single person as your own avatar, 2001's Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 is particularly fondly remembered not just in the series stronghold of East Asia but in the West because it got a proper release on PlayStation. The recently released remake of RT3K 8, however, is catching fan flak for being less of a remaster that respects the original and more of a remake that tries to bring in elements from the series' more recent releases...
