Oooooo mmmyyyy gooooddddd

Wwwww tttt fffffff

I can't believe this and I love the shit out of it!!!!

 

[Glass Rebel]

A match made in heaven.

 

[JayEH]

This makes me want a JoJo game from them. Can you imagine?

Jojo works better as a fighting game.

 

[Frozenprince]

Jojo works better as a fighting game.

Life sim/adventure game tbh

 

[ScientificPizza]

They really nailed the look of the anime

I pray that this gets localised

 

[HStallion]

Life sim/adventure game tbh

Yeah its called the Persona series.

 

[dan2026]

So I just did a bit of research and realised that the Fist of the North Star manga has never been completely released in english. Officially I mean.

The fuck is up with that?

 

[Revolutionary]

Amazing

 

[Labadal]

Will this have a similar game structure to the Yakuza games? If so, day one purchase.

 

[Frozenprince]

Yeah its called the Persona series.

The series is 1. really long and 2. never really took off in America.

So.

 

[Keyouta]

Damn this looks fucking amazing, and a great fit for the Yakuza devs.

 

[funkystudent]

This is such a great IP and Dev combo.

 

[Welfare]

Holy shit yes! It looks so good too!

 

[Kaizer]

Holy Shit, this is incredible. Seems the perfect fit for them. The "Heat" moves are going to be insane.

 

[NeonZ]

Damn thats pretty cool.
I wish they made a Gintama game though. It would be a perfect fit for a Yakuza game.

I wanted to post that. They needed to make an altered story to make Fist of the North Star fit the Yakuza format, but Gintama wouldn't even need that.

 

[NastyBook]

This is officially the gen of dreams.

 

[UpUpDownDown]

WHAT!?!

This looks amazing.

 

[dan2026]

The series is 1. really long and 2. never really took off in America.

So.

It's 27 volumes or 15 deluxe sized ones.
It's big, but when I think of long manga, it doesn't seem that long.

 

[so1337]

Is it me or are they using a different voice actor when he's doing the Bruce Lee noises?

 

[fireflame]

Sad there is not Akira Kamiya for voices but i guess he is too old or too expensive given his rating.

 

[Zaverious]

Was the Yakuza 7 teaser leading into this posted though?

[Umbooki]

All I need now is some Dub of The North Star news and we're golden.

 

[KainXVIII]

OKay I am now convinced to watch this anime/series whatever.

What should I watch? apparently there are movies and a TV show.

Yeah, i want to watch it too. Or maybe read manga? =)

 

[MetalliCabombination]

I hope theres atleast 3 or 4 characters playable.
That musou has me spoilt.
I understand that each character will get way more moves but.... I say 4 is fair.

 

[cntr]

Yeah, but for such a series so old and so niche in the US, it's way too long for companies to devote resources too.

I mean, look at how many people here know nothing about it.

 

[Coda]

Yooooo! How did I miss this? Finally a new dedicated beat em up game.

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

Jojo works better as a fighting game.

tell that to cc2

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Jojo works better as a fighting game.

Lol not really, considering the balancing of the past games.

 

[Superblatt]

Is there any reason to be concerned that this doesn't get released in the West? The last Fist of the North Star game (which was awesome) on Ps2 didn't get make it to the states.

 

[Crayon]

Looking at the pics more closely. This is beautiful work so far. Goddamn what a thing to wake up to.

 

[MKIL65]

This is officially the gen of dreams.

Yeah, maybe we'll get a Hunter X Hunter game this gen.

*sniff* Maybe...

 

[HStallion]

I'm hoping for a karaoke duet scene with Kenshiro and Toki.

 

[SleepingDragon]

The last FotNS game on the ps3 did release overseas though.

 

[Rymuth]

The movies are all different reinterpretation of the series (some are side stories)

Watch the main series

And the watch Hokuto no Ken Ichigo aji for some Souther goodness

 

[Fraxin]

Yeah, maybe we'll get a Hunter X Hunter game this gen.

*sniff* Maybe...

Greed Island Jrpg like maybe?

 

[kallisto76]

best game ever confirmed!!!

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

Lol not really, considering the balancing of the past games.

every time i hear this about a fighting game i roll my eyes. not every game needs to be balanced.

 

[Coda]

The last Fist of the North Star games were okay at best so I'm glad Sega is taking the helm with this one. It looks really polished already.

 

[_Ryo_]

Is this game called

Like a Dragon/ Fist of the North Star?
Yakuza/Fist of the North Star
Or just
Fist of The North Star?

Is this a yakuza game? With Fist of the North Star characters invading? That teaser trailer is too damn confusing.

 

[Host Samurai]

Wow. I would have never imaged it and yet it's the perfect marriage.

Now somebody please do something more with Berserk next.

It's a Fist of the North Star game but it has some references from the Yakzua series. Remains to be seen how deep the "crossover" goes or if it's just at a visual level only.

 

[New002]

Awwww yeah. You won't do us wrong like that last Berserk game

It's a Yakuza game based on FotNS. They also released a story trailer.

 

[CambriaRising]

Yes. Yes yes. YES

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

This is such a good time to be a gamer!

This will be phenomenal.

You two contradict each other. I dunno who or what to believe.

 

[Rizzi]

Holy shit yes.

 

[lucebuce12]

Honestly I don't know, but it has Kenshiro in it and he's voiced by Kiryu's VA.

Isn't that enough?

 

[KillLaCam]

They're the perfect devs for this
