PC release is unsurprising since Koei has been quite big on releasing their stuff on PC lately and that shows no signs of letting up. The Xbox One release is somewhat of a surprise though, considering neither 8 Xtreme Legends nor Empires made it to the console.

I guess they consider 9 to be big enough that it should be on the One.

But not 8? Just seems strange to me that Xbox 360 got 8, but when they re-released it for 8th gen with XL included they only did PS4/PC and skipped Xbox.

Also kind of surprising given how their games have sold on Xbox One so far...

Shrug I have no idea what goes on in their mind, I am just trying to think of what their reasoning would be.

Yeah, I get what you mean.

No Switch also seems strange to me though. I get there's the power argument. But considering for awhile they were porting their games to Vita as well that surely shouldn't be that big of an issue for them.

I think they'll get to making Switch games eventually.

Unless I find a really good deal on PS4, I'll be getting it on PC then. Doesn't make much sense for me to get it on PS4 since I prefer playing on PC and there's no splitscreen.

So hyped for this game, I imagine xbox users will still end up missing out on all the expansions though, unless it sells well.

I always opt to get the best version so it will be Steam unless its crossplay on windows store I might buy that so I can also play it on console.

They have probably seen the sense if the fact it practicaly takes them nothing to port it to the Xbox to get extra sales and more sales.

I don't know how many One games they've released before this, but yeah, they must have sold well enough to justify it.

The series in generaly isn't all that big of a seller really, If we look at VGC estimates for Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires it has PS4 at 200k and X1 at 70k, if the ratio is something like that there is plenty of money for them to make on Xbox for how easy it would port over.
