Just two months ahead of launch, Koei Tecmo Games and Omega Force have delayed<\/a> Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered<\/a>, which was due to come to Switch 1 and Switch 2 on 19th March 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The new date? There isn’t one yet, unfortunately, with the game’s producer Tomohiko Sho sharing that it will be “announced at a later date”.The postponement has been made “in order to fully satisfy our fans” to give the development team time to “further improve on the quality of the game.”<\/p>\n

While not quite a last-minute delay, it’s still a little surprising, though we’ve had very little news on the remaster since its announcement last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s Koei Tecmo’s statement in full:<\/p>\n

A message from the Producer<\/strong><\/p>\n

The release of Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered<\/em> has been postponed from the previously announced March 19, 2026.<\/p>\n

As the first remaster of the Dynasty Warriors<\/em> series, in order to fully satisfy our fans, we have made the decision to further improve the quality of the game. The new release date will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n

We appreciate your patience as we take a little more time before the game releases.<\/p>\n

~Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered<\/em> Producer, Tomohiko Sho<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In case you need a little reminder, Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered is a complete rerelease of Dynasty Warriors 3<\/strong> and Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends<\/strong>, which launched in 2001 and 2003 in North America on the PS2.<\/p>\n

It was the first game in the series to sell over 1 million copies and introduced some of the series’ most-famous features, including True Musou Attacks, two-player simultaneous play, and the officer development system.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, you can at least check out the recently-released Dynasty Warriors: Origins<\/a> on Switch 2, which \u2014 in our eyes \u2014 is a fabulous game<\/a>.<\/p>\n
