New Heroes of Three Kingdoms trailer introduces Miao race
Heroes of Three Kingdoms, a new free-to-play MMORPG based on the lore and legends of ancient China, is on display in the latest game trailer from Perfect World Entertainment. The video shows off the game's sumptuous visuals, not to mention a sizable helping of its 18 classes (including the ever-intriguing Ringblade). Also of note is the introduction of a new race, the Miao, nomadic barbarian warriors who live off the land in the southwestern reaches of the Yizhou province. The trailer is also heavy on in-game combat footage, showing a number of classes in action across varying locales, as well as what looks to be cinematics centering on the Battle of Redcliff. You can view the trailer after the jump, and don't forget to sign up for beta on the game's official website.
