About Taiko Risshiden

To commemorate Kou Shibusawa's 35th anniversary, the "Kou Shibusawa Archives" will be opened in the Steam Store. Here we will revive popular previously released titles.
In this fifth round of releases, we offer the 1992 release of "Taikou Risshiden."
The game revolves around the rise of Hideyoshi Toyotomi during the Warring States period of Japan. Players enjoy the story of Hideyoshi's life and his struggles as he rose from a common foot soldier to become the Chief Adviser to the Emperor.

I came from Basuria/Szechuan, I like the version 2 of this game very much, it is so amazing KOEI did so many things in this little game, you can expand the city, you can rebel, and you can leave your lord :) Thank you for accompanying me during my college years. Due to the college expansion, China's colleges were messes, they let unqualified students in and destroyed everything, 4,500 students packed into a hall and if you were not sitting in the front row then you couldn't hear anything. And those poor students played Startcraft, Warcraft, counterstrikes. I am glad I was able to meet this game with the Uncharted Waters. Thank you Koei! And shame to those Chinese who didn't pay but call you Dark Shame which is the opposite of 光榮

Really opened my eyes to how colonialist expansion works. My civics and citizenship class would be proud.

*Taiko Risshiden*, developed and published by KOEI TECMO GAMES CO., LTD., stands apart from many of the studio’s historical strategy titles by shifting the focus away from large-scale conquest and toward the personal journey of a single individual navigating the chaos of the Sengoku era. Instead of placing players in the role of a daimyo overseeing vast territories, it invites them to begin at the bottom of the social hierarchy and work their way upward, capturing the spirit of ambition and transformation that defined the period. This grounded perspective gives the game a more intimate and role-driven identity, making it feel less like a traditional strategy title and more like a historical life simulation. The experience begins with the player assuming the role of a low-ranking retainer—most famously modeled after Toyotomi Hideyoshi—serving under a powerful lord. From there, progression is shaped by effort, decision-making, and social maneuvering rather than immediate authority. Advancement requires completing assignments, building trust with superiors, and gradually increasing one’s standing within the clan. This structure creates a sense of earned progression that feels organic…
