Our take on NOBUNAGA'S AMBITION: Souzou

Rather than limiting the historical premise to reenacting Nobunaga's known achievements, the game gives players the chance to complete his unrealized unification of the land and create a different political outcome.

What is NOBUNAGA'S AMBITION: Souzou?

NOBUNAGA'S AMBITION: Souzou is a historical simulation set during Japan's Warring States era.

Players take the role of a daimyō and pursue the unification of the land while shaping a new age. The game combines recreated castle towns with battlefield action and event scenes. Its central premise allows the player to achieve what Nobunaga did not: unite the country and establish a new world.
