Koei Tecmo's Warriors-style Berserk game will hit North American shores this fall

Fans of the brutal anime and manga Berserk will soon get a chance to take on hordes of enemies in a Dynasty Warriors-style game based on the franchise. It has been announced that the game, simply carrying the working title of "Berserk," will launch for Windows via Steam this fall.

Here's a quick description of what you can expect from the game:

Berserk (working title) will fuse the signature 'one versus thousands' style action of the long-running Warriors franchise with the grim and gruesome atmosphere of the world of Berserk. As players harness the power of Guts' Great Sword and utilize the swift and agile swordplay of Griffith to slash and smash through hordes of enemies, players familiar with the Warriors series will be able to feel the difference in gameplay through the way each character handles combat. The game will also incorporate various battle mechanics to better bring the world of Berserk to life, such as Magic and Transformations.

While the game is also due for a PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita release alongside PC, there's no word on whether we'll see it arrive for Xbox One as well. If you're a fan of the series, you can learn more and keep up with the development of the game at its official website.
