KOEI TECMO and developer Kou Shibusawa launched their military and historical simulation, Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening Complete Edition, across Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5. A culmination of the series’ 40-year history, players attempt to accomplish Nobunaga Oda‘s unachieved ambition to unify Japan through a series of escalating war strategies and diplomacy.
Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening Complete Edition is the complete edition of Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening, which was released in July 2023 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the historic series. It includes all downloadable content except collaboration DLCs, supports 4K resolution (PS5 version only), features improved 3D rendering quality, and added mouse support.
Exclusive Content Coming To Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening The Complete Edition
Additionally, it includes six new scenarios, including “The Birth of Nobunaga,” a large-scale battle mode called “Decisive Battles” where powerful clans fight for each other’s domains, and new character traits. These enhance the overall experience as players take on the role of a powerful Japanese leader in the troubled and tumultuous times of the Warring States Period, 16th-century Japan.
In the new feature, “Decisive Battles,” large clans are pitted against each other in a fight for dominance. These battles occur between neighboring large clans that meet certain conditions. The process begins with two opening assault siege battles, a prelude to a large-scale battle.
There is a six-month preparation period before the opening assault, allowing players to strategize and gain advantages based on the outcome of the opening assaults. Victory in the “Decisive Battle” results in the complete occupation of the opponent’s domain, making it a true showdown that could determine the fate of unifying Japan.
What New Scenarios Are Coming?
Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening The Complete Edition also introduces six new scenarios, including historical and hypothetical ones. For example, the scenario “The Birth of Nobunaga” features key figures like Nobunaga’s father, Nobuhide Oda, and the cunning strategist Tsunehisa Amago. The “Fateful Clash” scenario begins immediately after the Honnō-ji Incident, when Mitsuhide Akechi betrays and attacks Nobunaga.
Additionally, the hypothetical scenario “Absence of Great Conflict,” starting from January 1547, explores a world where the Oda clan’s rise continued without the Ōnin War. These scenarios allow players to experience various Sengoku period situations, blending historical and fictional narratives.
As a general note, the “Decisive Battle” mode and new character traits will also be added to the original “Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening” via free updates. The six new scenarios, including “The Birth of Nobunaga,” will be available as paid downloadable content for the original version.
You can now conquer Warring States era Japan to the full extent with Nobunaga’s Ambition Awakening The Complete Edition, available now on Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5.
