I wasn't aware this anime had any presence in the West at all. They'll localise anything these days.

it's on viewster
Is there any KT game which doesn't get localized these days?
This announcement isn't related to the "This is not Warriors" tease.

Hmmm... The artwork is much less captivating than the 80s one.
This isnt that game.
This game was announced ages ago for Japan.
The game being teased will be announced next week.

XBOX ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You guys may not understand how cold I felt when I saw so many Japanese games skipping Xbox One... I felt I went back to the PS2/Xbox era...

Why would you buy an Xbox One to play Japanese games?
That's like buying a dvd player to play blu rays only.
It's distributed by Universal Pictures and Funimation, IIRC. Awesome show!

You're not an alt account are you? Your posts seem eerily familiar to users who have been banned in the past.

Well there it is.
Pretty sure it isn't out in Japan yet?
It's a Musou game, if you like those you'll like this one.

Oh, I thought it was out already, my bad.

Closest we'll get to full metal alchemist musou (the art style lol) But i'll give it a try, I almost buy every musou title.
Huh.
Wait... How big is Omega Force?!?!? I don't follow these games/really care about them, but I feel like there's a new one every 3 months or so. Does the similarity of their gameplay mean that development time is relatively short on each individual title, or is the developer just massive? The games are pretty successful commercially, aren't they?

Well koei probably moved alot of the devs from tecmo into multiple studios when koei did that acquisition. Koei's been on the ball this gen.

Hmmm...something smells fishy here.
Yes, I'll be buying this on the X1, thanks Koei! I might even finally get a PS4 by that time, but I've generally preferred my gaming on Xbox systems since Sega disappeared from the hardware market I had the choice...
Really glad to see this making it over here in general, though. Koei's been translating EVERYTHING, and I really like how consistent they're being on that front.
This... really isn't true at all. Xbox systems get very unique Japanese games (Think Gunvalkyrie, Jetset Radio Future, Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Crimson Dragon, etc), and they usually get a few nice exclusives that either never show up on other systems, or come much later.
Please remember that when the tables were more even in the console wars, many people made friendships and bonds on the 360, even those that loved Japanese games. Not everyone dropped those bonds to jump ship to PS4 when first-year decisions showed it gaining traction. Considering how many Japanese-developed games landed first / exclusively on 360 last gen, it has been pretty annoying to miss out on so many JP games, especially when they're often getting once-unheard of PC ports too.

Kind of surprised this is getting a western release, but I'm excited to play it.
That's how you know this game will be good.

I agree and that was the primary reason why I went with the 360 last gen. The first half of the 360's life was great. We had games like Perfect Dark, Prey, Mass Effect, Bioshock, etc and indie games that were not available on the PS3 at the time.
I slowly started to regret my decision during the second half when MS started sticking to their "Big 3" exclusives and Kinect games. I was hungry for games like Uncharted, Heavy Rain, Little Big Planet, Etc...I feel like the prodigal son returning to Playstaion LOL.
Anyway, that's a discussion for another topic. I really am glad that Koei is releasing this on the Xbox One.

I'm surprised that they are bringing it to the west.
No, he probably was an alt account of a banned user.
