There's no way they're leaving them. The only question is whether the Showas or the Secondary Riders are in. I'm guessing not all the Showas, maybe Ichigo/Nigo/V3 and Black/RX. The others will be DLC.

On a side note... been wondering, why has defense never been a big thing in musou games?
With how popular counter based brawler games are in the west with batman, ass creed, sleeping dogs, it seems like there is a big disconnect or something.

Teaser and a bit of gameplay at the end.
CG trailer doesn't look too hot, but the gameplay looks quite nice.

My Ride Booker is ready.

I'll really be pissed if Showa era Riders are DLC - honestly the riders between Ryuuki and W are terrible (save maybe for Blade and maaaaaybe Kabuto). At least W-Wizard are there.
ass creed is a brawler game? It was easy as hell.
Also if you don't defend properly in higher musou mode you won't even last seconds.
Interesting idea to have two versions, one with licensed music and one without. It's a pretty innovative way to keep costs low for a large release while also giving the option to give fans what they want (and are willing to pay for).
Den-O > Kabuto; also, this a game, not the shows. There will be no Inoue or J-drama; just Standing By's, Final Kamen Rides, Maximum Drives, and lots of Rider Kicks.

They're not making this game because of one fan's personal opinions, you know
Oh I know.
I've already experienced flanderization of showa characters ;_;
I dunno, at least Kabuto has trolling and good looking suits.

Lets see I spotted...
- OOO's
- W
- Den O
- Ryuki
- Hibiki
- Faiz
- Kabuto
- Wizard
- Fourze
- Blade
Didn't see Agito or Kuuga in there yet, but the graphics and in game stuff look great and I like the idea of Pre-Order DLC songs from the shows to replace the gamesoundtrack with. I really need to know if this is region free and if so whether or not a US PS3 could download the DLC or not. Im getting a console for this game so I really need to know.

Yeah the gameplay graphics looks decent but the CG looks weird lol

I can 99.9% guarantee you that you will have no problem with region locking for this game. AFAIK, the only recent game that has been region locked on PS3 is Persona 4 Arena, and it was done so that Japanese players wouldn't import the identical US copy for cheaper. The only other PS3 game that I THINK was region locked was Stranglehold's CE; due to it having Hard Boiled on it.
As for DLC, you would simply need to buy PSN cards from an import place online and use that on a Japanese PSN account (which is really easy to make).

Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
I watched a few episodes of Wizard and Fourze the other day (after hearing this announcement), really enjoyed it, so I'm kind of interested in this now...playing Gundam DW 3, for example, really got me into Gundam, so I'm all for these big franchise Musou games.

so curious why isn't kamen riders as popular as power rangers, the designs in the costumes are awesome and the enemies seem more badass...talking about tv show wise I figured someone would try to copy it here by now, lol.

In Japan, Kamen Rider and Super Sentai air back to back every Saturday and KR is seen as the much bigger franchise. In the US, KR has only been adapted twice and neither of them did their source material justice. I'm not sure how other countries fair when it comes to what kinda Toku is shown there.
555, Ryuki, and Blade are definitely in the game, so Heisei era Rider they're holding back from the footage/screens/teases/etc so far is Decade. I think we can be pretty sure that all 14 Heisei series are in the game. Don't expect any Showa ones, unless they have some pre-order DLC cameo or something.

But Decade's in the trailer.
Is he? Okay then!

yeah... Toei fucking loves decade, while everyone else hated him.
he's gonna be around forever, every iteration with worse hair.
Speaking of which, has there ever been a kamen rider game with their civilian form? Bringing this up because I was just playing power rangers movie game for snes, and it was pretty dope that you spent have the level untransformed.

It'll be interesting to see just how many secondary Riders they put in the game. We already know Gatack is in, and there will certainly be more (Diend, for example, is practically a shoe-in). They have to leave something for the inevitable sequel, though. I'd like to see at least one secondary Rider from every series make it in (save for Kuuga, for obvious reasons). Also, whether or not the secondaries will be playable is in question, as well. I can see them taking a DW7 approach and having the secondaries only be playable outside of Story Mode, or something.
I'm pretty impressed with how many mooks they've managed to cram on-screen, as well. This will definitely be more musou-y than say, the Bleach musou-clone Sony released a while back.
It's also important to note that according to the site, the game is singleplayer-only, so no splitscreen co-op, which is a shame, but not a dealbreaker. The aforementioned Bleach game was singleplayer-only as well, and it was still decent enough.
There have been a few Showa-era games to have civilian forms (Kamen Rider for the SNES, Kamen Rider and Kamen Rider V3 for the PSX). None based on Heisei-era series, though.

There was a Kamen Rider beat em up on SNES where you start untransformed and have a transform button.
e: Beaten
Nope.
Decade.

Even then that's still a bad choice given that Decade isn't even in the trailer.

I will not question Apollo Geist being in since he was the ONE villain by name other than Eternal I specifically was hoping to see. Dude was a straight up scary villain and when I first got introduced to him in Decade (my first real Rider series that I watched) he was the best thing on the show. Stays alive by stealing the life force of others, badass shield with buzzsaw edge, sword...dude was a legend the second I saw him in my own mind. Was so happy to find out he was officially a legend in fact already.

Decade ruins everything.
So I have a feeling we might see Showa characters here what with Apollo Geist, and any Rider fan knows Shadowmoon is the better playable villain.

He is, doing his Rider Kick ~55 seconds in and then in the later group shots. Not front-and-center like in Great Battle Full Blast or Super Hero Wars but it makes sense to use Geist if you want to have an established villain at the front of something involving crossover.

It's specifically Decade's Super Apollogeist. He has the Fangire Perfecter from the last two episodes of the tv show.
Still, it'll be pretty weird if there are no Showa Riders at all considering how they're including Shocker soldiers as grunts...

All 14 Heisei series confirmed to be in the game. All 14 main characters will be playable. There will be various sub-riders and enemies in the game. The story uses a "Chronicle Mode" where you will get to play key scenes from the individual stories of every Rider as they regain their memories. There will be lots of action gameplay in wide fields filled with enemies where you can ride the bikes, or fight on foot, and there will be various obstacles requiring you to jump or destroy stuff in the environment. The game will also be fully voiced.

Still a day one, but gonna be really disappointed if/when the Showa Riders don't appear
I enjoy the modern KR series, but the older ones are much better! Real men >>> pretty boys!

Uhh, those guys were considered "pretty boys" back in the day, too.
14 riders? So, some of the secondaries?
All 14 Heisei era series are in: Kuuga, Agito, Ryuki, 555, Blade, Hibiki, Kabuto, Den-O, Kiva, Decade, W, OOO, Fourze, and Wizard. There will be more than 14 riders in the game counting sub-riders, but the 14 mains are all confirmed to be playable.

It's clearly him, and it seemed to be a new recording too, considering how he wasn't just saying a catchphrase. He also just recorded some new lines for Super Climax Heroes.
Its been a while since Decade got new recordings in these games though, and Philip's actor didn't return in Super Climax Heroes, they just used some old recordings. So, it'll be interesting to see how they'll be handled here...
Seraphis Cain

Probably by throwing more money at him. They seem to be expecting a lot more out of this game, sales-wise, than SCH. Hence it having an actual teaser site and CG trailer and an expensive limited edition.
Now if they could only throw enough money at Hiro Mizushima to get him to spend a day in a recording booth...
Also, mad props for the Keroro avatar!
