Koei Tecmo Delays Dynasty Warriors 3 Remaster to Late 2026

Published 26 January 2026

Koei Tecmo announced on Wednesday that Dynasty Warriors 3 Complete Edition Remastered, a remastered version of the classic 2001 hack-and-slash game, has been delayed from its planned March 19, 2026, release. The multiplatform title, originally unveiled during Sony's September 2025 State of Play presentation, will now launch later in 2026, with a new date to be revealed in the coming months.

The delay stems from the development team's commitment to enhancing the game's quality, according to producer Tomohiko Sho. In an official statement, Sho explained, "The release of Dynasty Warriors 3 Complete Edition Remastered has been postponed from the previously announced March 19, 2026. As the first remaster of the Dynasty Warriors 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. We appreciate your patience as we take a little more time before the game releases." The announcement appeared in Koei Tecmo's quarterly report and on social media, reflecting the company's emphasis on delivering a polished product for longtime enthusiasts.
