i dun think so, they only released for ps 3,4 and vita if i'm not wrong. for me i will prefer it in vita because these type of games are slowly played and can i can play them anytime when im outside.

Seeing as how the English trailer is already out, and that the Steam logo wasn't present at the end, I'd say chances are extremely slim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X6yrGkCFqw
I've never played an Empires game before, but since I like the SW4 gameplay a lot more than DW8, I'll probably check this out when it releases.

I imagine that the refunds of One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 played a huge part?

Yeah but bandai is the license for One piece and Koei develop under their supervision. SW on the other hand is full Koei.

Nope. SW4 Empires is either a 1+ year delayed release for PC so it won't affect console sales or it will never happen at all.

One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 refunds only affect Bandai Namco since they are the publisher. But the refunds are tiny and meaningless in PC world context due to piracy and actual sales.

I'm still waiting for dynasty warriors 9 official announcement. They are pretty busy with a lot of releases for console/handheld and mobiles( about 30 titles?)... A chunk of those coming to PC/Japan market is mobile or online only games.

I doubt it, since Bandai most likely received the brunt of the force from PW3 refunds. Maybe it's because the SW games just aren't as popular as the DW games in the west?

I seriously dunno how Koei wants to build a PC fanbase when they release their titles irregularly and even when they do they chose a sub-par port. A fan wants to play all 3 games in a series (base, XL, Empires) to get all the stories and interractions. Until Koei does not change their attitude towards PC I cannot support them.

I loved Warriors Ororichi and look at it. Only the first game got proper english version release on PC. The 2nd part was only available with the Z bundle release and only in Japanese/Chinese. The rest of them have never come to the PC. WO1 was my last purchase from Koei, nuf said.

Yeah well its 2015. Releasing PS3 quality ports is just pathetic.

What makes you think they do?

Well, they certainly had more faith than Nippon Ichi. Still, i suppose we've reached the point where we had enough of their terrible ports.

The problem isn't Koei US/EU, they want to do it. The problem is Koei JP who doesn't give a flying ♥♥♥♥ about anything not SONY's schlong :P
This is why neither PW3 nor SW4-II got a single ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ patch since release, and it's not like they don't have glitches to be fixed.
