Koei Tecmo and Omega Force are set to make next year a landmark moment for their legendary tactical action series. Dynasty Warriors: Origins is officially charging onto Nintendo Switch 2 on January 22, 2026, alongside a large-scale DLC expansion that will launch across all platforms the same day, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
A New Take on the Three Kingdoms
Dynasty Warriors: Origins delivers a fresh interpretation of the iconic Three Kingdoms saga, bringing players back to pivotal events like the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Battle of Chibi. Told through the eyes of a nameless hero, the story lets players fight their way through ancient China in chaos, carving their own path with bold choices while leading the charge on the battlefield.
Battles on an Unprecedented Scale
Omega Force promises the largest number of soldiers in series history, creating dynamic battlefields that feel alive with tension. Soldiers act and fight with their own sense of will, forcing players to not just hack and slash, but also coordinate with allies to break through enemy lines.
With armies clashing in the thousands, Origins pushes the series’ trademark action to new levels of scale and realism. Every advance on the battlefield feels like a desperate push through the chaos, making victories more impactful than ever.
Expansion Content on Day One
Launching alongside the Switch 2 version, the large-scale DLC will add new layers of content across all platforms. While details are still under wraps, Koei Tecmo teases expanded gameplay that will keep fans cutting through endless armies well past launch day.
A Defining 2026 for Dynasty Warriors
Between its sweeping story, massive battlefields, and new DLC support, Dynasty Warriors: Origins looks ready to be the most ambitious entry in the long-running series. Fans can expect to wield their weapons once again when the game storms onto Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC this January.
