Developed by Dwelling Web Video games, the studio behind the popular Warplanes franchise, Shogun’s Empire is a virtual reality rendition of their 2019 flat-screen game, Shogun’s Empire: Hex Commander.
That features Japanese voice acting, dynamic seasonal cycles, and visuals inspired by historical masterpieces, Shogun’s Empire promises a plethora of campaigns centered around 15 authentic historic clans, where players can conquer provinces, fortify their armies, and forge a lasting legacy. This is the launch trailer.
Forge strategic partnerships, issue calculated declarations of war, and meticulously safeguard your reputation to ascend the social hierarchy and command greater esteem among your peers. A comprehensive economic framework will be established, ensuring a steady supply of sustenance for our troops, as we work towards enhancing provincial infrastructure to ultimately build an unyielding military machine.
As you expand your conquests and explore new territories, you’ll gain access to a diverse range of models, including ashigaru, samurai, and stealthy ninjas. The Shogun’s Empire encompasses a diverse array of military units, including sword-wielding warriors, ranged specialists equipped with bows and rifles, mounted cavalry capable of maneuvering across open terrain, and powerful artillery pieces well-suited for siege warfare. As troopers accumulate experience, they will acquire expertise in a gradual manner, allowing each military branch to offer morale-boosting enhancements or combat-related bonuses that reflect their unique strengths.
Shogun’s Empire is now available to play on the Meta Quest platform, with a complimentary trial experience for users to try before committing.
