AI-Enhanced Chess Variant, Three Kingdom Heroes, Debuts Soon

Authore: JasonUpdate:Dec 17,2024

Koei Tecmo unveils Three Kingdoms Heroes, a new mobile entry in their renowned Three Kingdoms franchise. This chess and shogi-inspired battler features iconic figures from the era, each with unique abilities and strategic options.

However, the game's most compelling aspect may be its GARYU AI system, developed by HEROZ, creators of the champion shogi AI, dlshogi. GARYU is designed to provide a challenging, adaptive opponent, offering a truly lifelike battle experience.

The familiar art style and epic storytelling of the Three Kingdoms series return, but Three Kingdoms Heroes presents a fresh, accessible entry point for newcomers. Its turn-based gameplay, combined with the innovative GARYU AI, promises a strategic challenge unlike any other.

The GARYU AI's prowess, honed through its predecessor's dominance in the World Shogi Championships, is a significant selling point. While AI hype is often overblown, HEROZ's track record suggests a genuinely formidable opponent awaits players. The prospect of facing such a challenging AI in a game steeped in the strategic maneuvering of the Three Kingdoms period is highly appealing. Three Kingdoms Heroes launches on January 25th.
