Nice, that looks like a swanky LE. o:

scy · Aug 22, 2012

Was going to get the digital version because it just made sense for the kind of game it is.

Guess that's not going to happen now.

Canis lupus · Aug 22, 2012

Importing this shit!

bjork · Aug 22, 2012

That's a cool package, I love that some companies can still do this.

Yuterald · Aug 22, 2012

ohhhhh, deluxe! I don't own a Vita yet, but I like my physical XSEED products! Thanks dudes! Hopefully by the time this releases I'll be in the market for a Vita.

It is a video game where you hunt monsters. If you like video games where you hunt monsters this game might be for you. It is made by GameArts, and published by Gungho in Japan. It is a hunting action game that supports both local multiplayer, and online multiplayer.

Reluctant-Hero · Aug 22, 2012

Ha, thanks for turning my post into a thread! Gotta love XSEED for still bringing quality physical packaging and extras out.

darkside31337 · Aug 22, 2012

Will buy the CE but I don't understand how hard it is to say something, anything really, about a release date.

Kazerei · Aug 22, 2012

So nice. XSEED puts together awesome limited editions.

Now someone should go bug H.Protagonist about the release date :>

LiquidMetal14 · Aug 22, 2012

Yep, this looks like I game I will purchase post haste.

I dunno. The game's in English. Sony Computer Entertainment Asia released it already.

Her or wyrdwad. I need this game now!

CE it is, for me. I was going to go digital with this but XSEEDS LEs are too good to pass up.

dakkumauji · Aug 22, 2012

Will get swanky mercenary edition for sure.

At least the release date is narrowed down to a month.

The Asia release is actually using XSEED's translation.

Just assume that it will be released in 10/30/12 in the US. If it drops earlier, yay!

Yuterald · Aug 22, 2012

The environments look like they're straight out of Grandia 3. Anyone here import or play this game yet? How are the battle mechanics? Since it's a Game Arts game I expect nothing but top tier combat. As far as combat systems go from Game Arts, GIII is my standard. I know this is an action RPG, but are there cool mechanics and systems? Any juggle mechanics or critical strike cancelling stuff?

digita1alchemy · Aug 22, 2012

I am pretty excited about owning more than one Vita game.

I've seen juggles in a few gameplay vids from Kyletwentytwo.

I think it was in this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuquFmL2kRQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player

pyrandes · Aug 22, 2012

Hmmm. To switch my preorder or not to.

If the soundtrack is supposed to be good, i probably will.

Yeah, I just found the same video on YouTube, thanks! Well, I guess I'm not surprised since it's from the same developers! The juggles don't look as extravagant and stylish as they do in GIII, but it was always a mechanic I thought felt and looked bad ass. Definitely happy to see the idea return in some fashion. I knew there was something special about the combat in GIII. I'm definitely picking this up with my Vita when I get one. =D

Mondriaan · Aug 22, 2012

Anyone have any comments about the soundtrack?

I'm contemplating a purchase of the L.E.

Doesnt show in search but google found it.

iLLmaticV3 · Aug 22, 2012

Pre-ordered. Can't wait to play this co-op. Gotta talk my friends into getting this, so I have people to play with.

prwxv3 · Aug 22, 2012

Is the game native res? It looks really good.

Coxy · Aug 22, 2012

Oh man I want this and I dont even have a vita yet. Says you get a random selection of 10 cards, I wonder how many there are altogether? Do I have to hunt down 10,000 other people to complete the set?

Tratorn · Aug 22, 2012

I wish it would release this or next month... :/

Man, all good vita-games are coming at october/november...

Kacho · Aug 22, 2012

Thanks for the Amazon link. Pre-ordered.

I believe it is. Though the environments and stuff really aren't anything special.

Santar · Aug 22, 2012

I really hope this comes out in europe too. Can't seem to find any news of a european version. Would be a shame if it doesn't, as I think the game looks very promising.

I believe there are 50 different cards.

dallow_bg · Aug 22, 2012

Time to cancel my Newegg order.

Thank you XSEED.
Again.

will i be able to play with people who have the Japanese version?

MagicWithEarvin · Aug 22, 2012

Nice! XSEED with the goods yet again. I'll probably cancel my $29.99 Newegg pre-order for this...

Seventy5 · Aug 22, 2012

I am getting that deluxe bad boy. Imported the Asian version, it came with a soundtrack. Game is awesome!

Cheska · Aug 22, 2012

XSEED is really bringing out all the big guns this year, eh?

prwxv3 · Aug 22, 2012

I believe it is. Though the environments and stuff really aren't anything special.

Have you played the game yet. I remember you saying you did not like the slow combat of Monster Hunter. Is the combat in this game fast?

I played the demo, and yeah it's a lot faster than Monster Hunter.

branny · Aug 22, 2012

I am so excited for this game.

Waldo Lydecker · Aug 22, 2012

I came in here suspecting this:

I left indefinable.

GhaleonQ · Aug 22, 2012

I'm still cool to you after the PSP end of life treatment, XSeed, but we're on speaking terms. Nice job.

Aurizen · Aug 22, 2012

the release date is in October

I was told it would have a summer release, so many games are coming out in October
