HAMSTER has announced that the next Console Archives game will be L’Empereur, coming to Switch 2 and PS5 on June 11.
Only you can lead the French to victory over Europe!
L’Empereur was released by Koei in 1991 for an 8-bit home console.
This simulation game puts you in the shoes of the legendary Napoléon, aiming to save France from crisis, become emperor, and unify Europe, carrying the hopes of the people.
Overcome the challenges of realistic HEX-based warfare, requiring consideration of varying topography and bridge construction, and develop sharp diplomatic strategies by your genius military tactics and political power.
The Console Archives series is designed to bring classic games originally released on home consoles to modern gaming platforms.
In Console Archives series, features such as customizable button layouts, rapid-fire settings, multiple save points, and for some titles, a rewind function have been added, to support players in completing these classics.
Additional options include screen layout adjustments and filters that recreate the the nostalgic atmosphere of CRT TVs back in the day, allowing players to customize the visual experience to their preference.
Whether it’s a title you played long ago or one you’re experiencing for the first time, we hope you’ll find a favorite and enjoy the game your way.
