To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the series, Koei Tecmo released Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening for consoles and PC worldwide this week. Today, Koei Tecmo confirmed released the previously-announced Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Japanese voice update on PC via Steam. This is coming to consoles soon as well. The lack of Japanese voices was one of my major complaints with the release, so I’m glad it is already addressed. Watch the Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening launch trailer below:
