When
Dynasty Warriors 7 (Shin Sangoku Musou 6) was announced in Japan release and
few months later, Western version is released. After released, Koei decide to
have the survey for the fans vote their favorite character to be added for next
installment (Xtreme Legends). The voting lasted few months and the result came
in after the voting end.
Wei:
Guo Jia (1), Yue Jin (2), Pang De (3), Xun Yu (4), Yu Jin (8)
Wu:
Lu Su (5), Lu Kung (9)
Shu:
Xu Shu (7), Ma Yunlu (11), Guan Xing (H),
Jin: Zhang Chunhua (10)
Others:
Chen Gong (6), Gao Shun (H), Lu Lingqi (H)
*H
stands for Honorable Mention.
Guo Jia (1) used to
work with Yuan Shao, but defected to Cao Cao. He later assists Cao Cao to end
Yuan Clans, including Yuan Shao’s three sons. Along with him, two more warriors
were added; Wang Yi, who wants revenge on Ma Chao and veteran
general from Dynasty Warriors 5, Pang De (3).
After
few months, Koei make another installment, Dynasty Warriors 7 Empires (Shin
Sangoku Musou 6 Empires and introduce Xu Shu (7), a strategist of Liu
Bei who help defeat Cao Ren and his Eight Gates Golden Locks
Formation.
After
few years later, Koei announce that they are going to added Dynasty Warriors 8
(Shin Sangoku Musou 7) and added more characters, approximately 11
characters. Among them, they add few characters from Famitsu Poll list; Yue Jin (2), Lu Su (5), Guan Xing (H), and Zhang Chunhua (10), along with new character; Li Dian, Han Dang, Zhang Bao, Guan Yinping, Wen Yang, Jia Chong, and veteran Zuo Ci.
What
does that means? We have Xun Yu (4), Yu Jin (8), Lu Kung (9), Ma Yunlu (11), Gao Shun (H), Lu Lingqi (H) left for future release. However, Koei decide to do another voting for their favorite
characters once again and this time, most of the characters are fairly new and
few that added from previous list.
Wei: Xun
Yu (2), Yu Jin (3)
Wu: Zhu
Ran (4), Cheng Pu (5), Lu Kung (6), Zhuge Jin (10)
Shu:
Wang Ping (8), Fa Zheng (9),
Others:
Chen Gong (1), Gao Shun (7)
The
result comes out with a surprise because Koei explains that Xun Yu (2) will be the
highest if Chen Gong (1) wasn't the highest vote. Koei decide to improve Lu Bu by
building an army for him, which he as beautiful Diao Chan, and loyalty, Zhang
Liao.
Chen Gong (1) save Cao Cao’s life and serve under him. However, several years he
defected to Lu Bu’s force beginning to push Cao Cao. It lasted several years
and eventually claimed their land to live. However, it was lasted shorted as Lu
Bu’s comrade army defected to Cao Cao and losing its home due to Cao Cao’s
manipulation, which Chen Gong (1) and Lu Bu was executed.
Along
with him, they add Yu Jin (8), Zhu Ran (4), Fa Zheng (9), and previous poll list Lu Lingqi (H) for Xtreme Legends. As time goes by, Empires was announced and Xun Yu (2) is added
as playable new character.
We don’t
know if Koei is making another Dynasty Warriors, but if they do, who will they
added? They have these characters left and hopefully they continue the route
and add these characters.
Wu: Lu Kung (9 --> 6), Cheng Pu (5), Zhuge Jin (10)
Shu: Ma Yunlu (11), Wang Ping (8)
Others: Gao Shun (H --> 7)
