Digimon Adventure’s Tag And Crests Come To Life For Series’ 15th Anniversary. January 30, 2015 . 11:58am

You might remember always wanting one of those Tag necklaces the main characters wore in Digimon Adventure back when the show first started.

You might remember always wanting one of those Tag necklaces the main characters wore in Digimon Adventure back when the show first started. You can finally get yourself one, as Famitsu shows that they’re making replicas for the series’ 15th anniversary.

Considering the popularity of Digimon and the show at the time, it’s pretty surprising to see how they’ve waited this long to finally produce the items.



They come in the eight Crest varieties of Courage, Friendship, Love, Sincerity, Knowledge, Reliability, Hope, Light, and Kindness. You can also place the Crest on the Tag and press it to make it light up.


The Tag comes with a 70cm chain necklace, so it would actually be a pretty awesome cosplay item. Additionally, those who preorder the Tag by June will get a Tag-shaped pin, along with three Digivice pins to go with it.

Bandai also made a little trailer for the upcoming Tag replica, so you can get a closer look, along with a little dose of nostalgia with the characters from Digimon Adventure.

The Digimon Adventure Tag and Crests will release sometime in June, and will go for 4,860 yen (tax-included).

Eater enemy has several evolutions in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
Published 17 mins ago. 2 comments.

Plus, new Keyword and Digi-Line systems detailed.
V Jump this month reveals new details on the previously revealed “Eater” enemy in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth.



Eater is an unidentified life form within cyberspace that appears without warning one day, consuming the data of humans and Digimon alike indiscriminately should they get too close. It will evolve through at least three additional forms, including “Eater (Humanoid),” “Eater Eve,” and “Eater Adam.” The life form has become a strong interest of researcher Akemi Suedo (voiced by Hiroshi Yanaka).
The magazine also details two new systems:

• Keyword - Talking to specific people about certain keywords while out investigating can yield more information.
• Digi-Line - A tool that’s packaged as part of the Digivice. It lets users communicate with each other and share information, even when they’re not close by.

Also in the magazine, V Jump Books confirms it will release a strategy guide for the game, which will come with download codes for a Taichi Kamiya costume for Agumon (which holds a rare skill), as well as a convenient item set. The strategy guide will launch day-and-date with the game for 1,500 yen.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth details and screenshots: Mirei and Rina, Tower Records, more Royal Knights
Published 14 hours ago. 87 comments.

Plus, Mastemon, the new half-angel, half-demon Digimon.

The latest set of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth information and screenshots introduces more of the Royal Knights, returning Digimon Story Reigitize Decode characters Mirei and Rina, and a collaboration with Tower Records.
Get the information below.

The threat extends to the real world! The gates of the Real and Cyber Worlds are finally open!
The strange happenings occurring in the Real World have an adverse effect on the Cyber World. When the world crisis reaches a climax, the Royal Knights emerge in the Real World from the Digital World.
The decisive battles will be taking place in the real world!
The Royal Knights show up in the human realm, intent on wiping humanity out!
The Royal Knights are split up into two factions as they make their entrance into the human world with a bang. One of them, led by Leopardmon, is intent on erasing humanity to ensure the safety and stability of his own world….
Leopardmon (voiced by Norio Wakamoto)

Leopardmon is a highly respected tactician, even within the ranks of the Royal Knights, capable of keeping the others in line despite their disparate beliefs. He’s also effectively the one behind the Paradise Lost Project, pushing its progress ever forward. The type of commander to take to the battlefield himself, in combat, he roams the battlefield in his Leopard Mode. Once his true objectives become apparent, a new battle begins.
Dynasmon (voiced by Koji Haramaki)

A Digimon with the abilities of a flying dragon, Dynasmon is known for his peerless strength thanks to his dragon-like power and high purity Chrome Digizoid dragon armor. His loyalty is strong, serving absolutely under a lord whose ideas of justice line squarely with his own. Even if who he’s serving could be described as evil, he’s still willing to lay down his life if it means upholding his moral code of justice. Therefore, his spirit of chivalry is strong, and his loyalty and faith, as well as his etiquette, are well respected and as such has joined up with Leopardmon.
Kentaurosmon (voiced by Keiji Hirai)

With its beast-like silhouette, one could describe him as something of a grotesque, strange-looking creature. Boasting high defensive power thanks to his “Red Digizoid” body armor, it’s difficult for even Mega level Digimon to damage Kentaurosmon. With his six legs, he has excellent mobility, and can move at unimaginably high speeds for his size. Although he has a strong distrust in humans, he does not join up with Leopardmon, but instead acts independently.
Craniamon (voiced by Yukitoshi Hori)

The most civil and courteous Digimon in the Royal Knights, Craniamon is a prideful perfectionist. His mission success rate when it comes to assignments doled out by Yggdrasil are among the best within the Royal Knights, a real contender for first or second place. Blindly one to do as he’s told by Yggdrasil, he goes along with Leopardmon’s Paradise Lost Project.
Examon (voiced by Yuusuke Handa)

A Digimon that possesses such a tremendous mass of data that it was previously impossible for Examon to be rendered using old digital equipment. It’s only been with new technology that the issue has finally been rectified. Although he’s a member of the Royal Knights, he’s also the top dragon type Digimon, therefore going by the nickname “Ryutei” (Dragon Emperor). He appears during the Real World invasion with Leopardmon and the other Royal Knights, but after an unexpected ambush, he loses his mind and begins to run wild.
Mastemon

When an unprecedented crisis visits the Digital World, an angel type Digimon and demon type Digimon join hands in an unprecedented DNA digivolution into Mastemon, an angel type Digimon. Mastemon possesses a special power tied to the gates of other Digital Worlds. With the ability to freely manipulate both the powers of light and darkness, Mastemon can lend her power to Digimon in a variety of situations and makes for naturally a formidable foe herself.

Mysterious Girl Who Traverses the Cyber World

Mirei Mikagura, voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro, is a woman who lost the data of her natural body after an accident and thus becomes able to travel to the Cyber World. Her true home and age are unknown. She has seemingly traveled to various Cyber Worlds (Digital Worlds). She manages the Digi-Lab and provides the protagonist with a variety of knowledge not known to regular Real World inhabitants. She and Kyoko Kuremi appear to be old friends on the surface, but….


Super Positive Girl

Rina Shinomiya, voiced by Haruka Tomatsu, is a resident of a Real World different from this game’s Real World. She’s apparently gone adventuring in the Digital World with Veemon before, but it’s otherwise unknown how she will affect the story.
Veemon, voiced by Aiko Hibi, is Rina’s partner. She calls him Vee-Vee and looks at him as a nice younger brother, while Veemon looks at her as a no-good older sister.


No Music, No Life

At Tower Records in Shibuya, trouble and mischief are frequent occurrences. Cyber Sleuths who visit the shop will be greeted by the bright and cheerful Reiko Towa, with whom they can investigate mysterious incidents.
Reiko, voiced by Ayana Taketatsu, is Tower Records’ teenage employee. She has a straight-laced personality, is fashionably dressed, and occasionally changes her hairstyle. She enjoys a wide range of music and anime.
Etemon, voiced by Yasunori Masutani and the self-proclaimed “King of Digimon,” will appear in the shop at some point. He has his own song that he has absolute confidence in, and has a scheme to spread it across the human world.
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth is due out for PS Vita in Japan on March 12.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Introduces Three New Friends. February 26, 2015 . 9:00am

Here’s a look at a few characters that will help you along the way.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth will have you crack cases in the real and cyber worlds, and with the help of all kinds of people you’ll meet in both dimensions. Here’s a look at a few characters that will help you along the way.

Mirei Mikagura:
Mirei had lost her original body data due to a certain incident, and has been traveling around in cyberspace since then. She looks like a young lady, but her actual age is unknown. It remains a mystery as to why she’s traveling around in different cyber worlds (Digimon World).

 

[zenith16]

Almost done

She runs the Digimon Lab, where you’ll go to help your Digimon grow and evolve. She also teaches the protagonist about all kinds of information that people from the actual world don’t know about. Mirei seems to be old friends with Kyoko Kuremi, too.

Rina Shinomiya:


Rina is from a different real world than the one we live in, and they say that she used to adventure around the Digimon World with Veemon. It still remains a mystery as to how she ties into the story, but they also say that she’s annoying, very annoying… but cute.



As for her partner Veemon, she gave it the nickname Veevee. As far as their relationship goes, Rina is like the trouble-making older sister, while Veevee is the proper young brother that tries keeping her in check.

Reiko Tawa:


Reiko is always pulling off strange pranks at a certain Tower Records shop in Shibuya. The protagonist meets Reiko, the energetic, happy, and music-loving girl, as part of some cyber detective work.

  CAMPAIGN HUB – A Renewed Hope for Digimon Games in the West
  
  | 28 Comments
  Digimon fans have a lot to look forward to! Continue Reading...

NOTE: This article is from the oprainfall Campaign Hub, written by an independent campaign, and hosted on the oprainfall website. The opinions herein may not represent the opinions of oprainfall.
Hello there, rainfallers!
It’s been a really long time since our last blog article, and a lot of things have happened. For starters, our petition (that recently celebrated its first year) just passed the 50.000 signatures milestone, which is absolutely amazing. We thank you from the bottom of our heart for your incredible support and dedication! We would have never reached such an incredible result without you all.
As some of you may already know, the goal of our petition changed a little, lately: it not only asks for the localization of Decode, now, but for EVERY Digimon game to make its return on the Western shores! We decided this in order to count in the latest announced game, Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth for PlayStation Vita, which is drawing the interests of many fans (and ours too, obviously).


[YT]GFn4DdpFNwA[/YT]
The most important event, anyway, is that Bandai Namco finally gave us a real answer!
In this sense, we have first to make a little clarification: we have noticed that quite a few people have thought that reaching the 50.000 milestone would have meant an “automatic” announcement of localization for Decode and/or Cyber Sleuth. We have to clarify that it is not the case. The thing we have been asking is for Bandai Namco is to consider a localization of the games, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it is a sure thing. We were saying that a minimum of 50.000 signatures was useful to try starting a discussion inside the company to decide the future of the Digimon franchise in the West. And Bandai Namco, in fact, seems to have heard our voices, and reading the following news will make you understand that they may already be considering.
About ten days ago, they announced a brand-new game in the franchise, named DIGIMON All-Star Rumble, exclusively for American, European and Australasian territories. The game is developed by the Japanese studio PROPE, founded by Sonic’s creator Yuji Naka who is already responsible for the Digimon Adventure anniversary game released on PSP two years ago in Japan. Saban Entertainment is also involved in the development. It is a party-arena brawling game, with a Powerstone-inspired 3D gameplay, presenting a roster of all-time loved digital monsters from the various animated series! It can be considered a new entry in the much-loved Digimon Rumble Arena series, which started way back in 2001 on the first PlayStation.
[YT]DbdqUsjEo1c[/YT]

In their press release, they finally and officially acknowledged our fan movement, as you can tell by their words:
“There are few fan bases as passionate as Digimon’s. The fans’ campaigns haven’t gone unnoticed, and we’re truly amazed by the amount of support they continuously show to their favorite series. We couldn’t be more thankful. We’re very excited to announce today DIGIMON All-Star Rumble! We hope fans will enjoy this brand new adventure in the Digital World, sure to be highly nostalgic and full of familiar faces like Agumon, Gabumon and many others.”
Chris Gilbert, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Bandai Namco Games America, also added:
“We are especially pleased to see Digimon fans rallying support for future Digimon video games to be localized in the Americas. With DIGIMON All-Star Rumble, we look forward to delivering a battle arena game experience that Digimon fans can really be excited to get their hands on.”
This is exciting news!
With All-Star Rumble (which will be released on both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next 11 November in America and sometime this fall in Europe/Australia, and more details about the game will be coming in the following weeks), Bandai Namco is probably going to test the waters for the future of Digimon franchise: they are aware of which games we want, but they need to see how big and how loyal the Digimon fanbase can really be, and to also reinvigorate the hype for the franchise (whose latest series, Digimon Fusion, is being aired in various parts of the world). Digimon have been absent from the market for 6-8 years, so localizing straight away a text-heavy game like Decode and/or Cyber Sleuth (which is still in development in Japan) would have been too risky without knowing how many people are actually going to buy it – a petition alone can’t give an exact estimate.
But if this is not enough for you, this article by Kevin Sanchez can give us another hope to see Digimon World Reigitize Decode localized in the West:
“We asked one of the Namco Bandai PR if this game [DIGIMON All-Star Rumble] was announced previously under the radar (since we thought we were living under a rock) but it was indeed a new title announced that day.
I was told that they were excited to finally announce a Digimon game but they were also very nervous since it wasn’t Digimon World Reigitize [Decode]. When we asked if they were aware of the petition they told us that they were aware and they were amazed that it has gotten so many supporters.
Although they still have nothing to announce for Digimon World Reigitize [Decode], there seems to still be some hope for it to come overseas.”

It’s possible that the final outcome of this situation will partly depend on the performance of All-Star Rumble, but if they are willing to release this new Digimon game in the West – a Japanese release is not planned, at the moment – it’s the proof that they may already be considering a localization of other games in the series. They just need the right motivation, which in this case is a large interest and satisfying sales.
That is why we encourage every Digimon fan out there, if the game inspires you even just a little bit and you have a PS3 or a X360 (or are planning to get either), to preorder or buy DIGIMON All-Star Rumble as soon as possible. Signing on the petition is important, but concrete support is even better. The best thing we can do right now to have Digimon games back in the West is to actively support the Digimon games they are currently able to offer us.

While it’s true that All-Star Rumble is not exactly the game we’ve been asking for – we didn’t even know it existed, before they announced it! – it sure is a step in the right direction. Most importantly, it does look promising and fun, and it kindles a new hope for the future of Digimon games in the West. But it’s not just for these reasons that we should support it, but especially because it’s been years since the last Digimon game we had: it’s a special occasion that we should all celebrate by having fun with our beloved digital monsters.
In the meantime, like always, I invite you to continue sharing our petition to people who are interested in those games! Let’s reach even higher numbers, that together with the sales of All-Star Rumble, will make our point on Decode and Cyber Sleuth even more stronger.
Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed this news.
PS: just in case some of you still don’t know, Toei Animation announced a new Digimon animated series for next Spring in occasion of the 15th anniversary of the anime! It will apparently have the same characters from the very first, glorious series, but we’ll see them in their high school years! One of the most notable things is that Toei Animation published a trailer in English language, dedicated to “all DigiDestined in the world”! Could they be planning a triumphant worldwide comeback of the Digimon franchise?! That is something we all must wish and be excited for!

Digimon World: Cyber Sleuth listed for PS4 on Amazon Canada
Published 37 mins ago. 149 comments.

Looks like Media Vision's Digimon game is headed westward.

A PlayStation 4 listing for Digimon World: Cyber Sleuth has appeared on Amazon Canada.
This would, of course, be the English localization for Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, which launched for PS Vita in Japan in February.
Bandai Namco has been localizing its Japanese games with added PlayStation 4 versions lately. Tales of Zestiria, previously PlayStation 3-only, got a PlayStation 4 (and PC) version. J-Stars Victory VS+, previously PlayStation 3 and PS Vita-only, got a PlayStation 4 version. And Godzilla, previously PlayStation 3-only, got a PlayStation 4 version. Even Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment, previously launched for PS Vita, is getting a PlayStation 4 version this summer.
A PS Vita version of the game is not listed.
Thanks, NeoGAF.

Digimon World: Cyber Sleuth Listed On Amazon For PlayStation 4. June 17, 2015 . 11:59am

There’s a chance Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth might be coming to the West.

There’s a chance Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth might be coming to the West. Amazon Canada lists a game titled Digimon World: Cyber Sleuth on their website, which sounds like a localized title for the PlayStation Vita RPG.

The catch is, Amazon’s listing is for PlayStation 4, not Vita. Bandai Namco haven’t yet announced the game for a Western release yet, so just what this means is hard to say.

We’ll keep an eye out for any further developments.

Thanks to all the people that wrote in about this!

Interview: Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth producer Kazumasa Habu at NYCC 2015
Published 8 hours ago. 56 comments.

Digimon RPG due out in western territories in early 2016.

At Comic-Con in New York on Friday, we sat down with Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth producer Kazumasa Habu to discuss the RPG’s upcoming English release.



Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth features more than 200 Digimon and lets players become a cyber detective, gathering clues and solving a digital mystery. Players can scan, raise, and train Digimon to battle alongside them against a mysterious groups of hackers. First launched in Japan for PS Vita in February 2015, the western release will ship for PlayStation 4 at retailers and for PS Vita via the PlayStation Store. It will launch in North America and Europe in early 2016.




Find our full interview below.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth was being promoted during Digimon Adventure‘s 15th anniversary. What was the focus working on a Digimon game during such an important period in the franchise’s history?
Habu: “As you mentioned, the 15th anniversary was last year in Japan. As you know, the Digimon IP was first delivered as a franchise for the children. Well, 15 years have passed since then, and now those kids are all grown up. So last year, we were focusing on how we can attract those old fans, who were once kids, to buy our game and get interested in Digimon again. So when we were creating the game, that was our focus.”
That’s actually one of the things I wanted to talk about. When it was still coming out in Japan, Bandai Namco called Cyber Sleuth a Digimon game for adult fans. What is it about the game that shows that?
“First, there’s the game system, which we didn’t want to change, because that’s a big characteristic of the Digimon story and world. We didn’t change the game system, so players can still collect Digimon, meet all kinds of Digimon, customize their own team, and go out to battle, and that’s what you’ll actually do in the game. What’s new about the game is that we updated the narrative world of Digimon and created an original story just for the game. So we think the story will attract more older fans.”
Why make an internet-based, cyberpunk Digital World over the more traditional-style Digital World this time?
“Actually, the world of Cyber Sleuth is not only the internet-based world. One part is Tokyo, a kind of imaginary Tokyo which we might see in the near future, and then on the other side we have this cyber world called ‘EDEN.’ As you know, Digimon are kind of programs based on data. We want our fans to accept this kind of setting in the game very naturally, so we have two parts to the world—the future reality Tokyo and the cyber world where players encounter Digimon. So it’s basically kind of a new design that we want our new players to accept.
“Another thing I want to add about the setting—we’re planning to attract more and more new players, including those that didn’t really know about Digimon or the franchise before, so we want players to be able to accept the setting very naturally, which is why we went with this real world and cyber world. In the game, players first encounter Digimon in the cyber world, which of course—the internet is so developed, and everyone has used the internet in their lives, so this kind of setting hits close to home and makes them feel as if they can encounter these Digimon in reality. And then these players can collect and customize them, and those Digimon can come out into the real world in the game.”
Suzuhito Yasuda, who is known for his artwork on the Devil Survivor games, did the character artwork for Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth. This is his second Digimon title, but the first we’re seeing in the west. Why choose Yasuda-san?
“One of the reasons we picked Yasuda-san to design the characters in this game—the first reason is because he designed the characters in the previous game, Digimon World Re: Digitize. We used him for that game and since it was successful, we wanted him to design the characters this time, too.
“The second thing is probably because, during the planning stages, we thought that Digimon fans are getting older and older, so instead of very cute-style characters, we wanted more realistic designs. And one of Yasuda-san’s characteristics is that he designs characters very simply, and it’s very easy for people to get used to his designs. He doesn’t put any complicated characteristics into these characters.
“As you know, the main characters in the world are the Digimon, and when you level up those Digimon, their characteristics get complicated, and you’ll see a lot of different features within each Digimon. So on the other side, Digimon are the main characters of our game. But then on the other side for the human characters, those who raise the Digimon, we don’t want them to be very complicated. We want them to be very simple, but with a strong image in the player’s mind. And that’s one of Yasuda-san’s best traits.”
Your starter Digimon choices are Terriermon, Palmon, or Hagurumon – sort of a motley crew selection. Why choose these three over the traditional Agumon, Gabumon, and so on?
“We picked those three Digimon as the default monsters is that we have set three types of Digimon. The three types are Data, Vaccine, and Virus. During battles, the three types of Digimon have their own characteristics. For example, you have to use Data types to defeat Vaccine types, and those kinds of things. So we figured that using three different types of Digimon as the default was the best idea.
“Another thing is that we’ve had Agumon and Gabumon as the main Digimon in many previous games, and they’re already beloved by many people. So instead of using them as the default Digimon, we wanted them to be more like the other characters, main characters in the story. And if you really want Agumon and Gabumon on your team, you can just try your best to encounter them by luck or by effort.”
In previous Digimon Story games, you had this system where positioning certain Digimon next to each other gave them stat boosts. Why was that removed in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth?
“When we designed the game, we picked the Digimon Story series’ game systems instead of the Digimon World systems because we wanted a simplified battle system for new players to get into. We wanted this battle system to be very simple. Instead of the positioning thing, we redesigned the battle system with different kinds of features. For example, we have three types of Digimon, then we have eight different kinds of attack patterns for each Digimon. Then we have the speed system, which if the Digimon’s stats are speedy, he is faster at attacking others. If you really think the positioning part of the battle system is interesting and that people enjoy it, you can tell us and we can think about putting it in the next game!”
One of the new features of the western release in New Game Plus. Can you talk a bit about that?
“We want players to finish the story easily in their first playthrough of the game. And in the second playthrough, they can maintain the data for the customized Digimon they obtained in the first playthrough. In that regard, we think players can challenge the harder levels in their second playthrough. One of the fun parts of the game is collecting many kinds of Digimon, so we want players to taste the story in the first round, then afterwords collect and customize more.”
In North America, and just recently confirmed for select European countries, there will be a physical release for PlayStation 4. Is there a possibility we’ll see a limited run physical release for PS Vita, as well?
(Habu signals to Bandai Namco PR rep.)
Bandai Namco PR rep: “Come to our panel on Sunday.”
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth is being released on PlayStation 4 in North America and Europe, but is only available for PS Vita in Japan. Is there a possibility that new Digimon games will be made for more platforms from the get-go?
Habu: “This time, we announced the PlayStation 4 physical version because we think PlayStation 4 has a lot of players in North America and Europe, so that’s why we added it as one of the platforms. And we knew we had a lot of fans here in the global market because of the petition for the game’s localization. The petition gave us a lot of strength and confidence that we can still bring Digimon to a lot of fans here in North America. So if we continue to listen to the voices of our fans, we can probably get into all kinds of platforms.”
Do you have a role in the development of Digimon World: Next Order? Can you say which team is developing it?
“I’m sorry. I’m not on the team for Digimon World: Next Order, so I wouldn’t know about the details.”
Thank you for your time, Futami-san.
