Yes, Marvelous published Muramasa and Grand Knights History in Japan, but XSEED never touched those games.
XSEED doesn't announce release dates until right up before it happens. (Also, despite saying "winter 2015", that pretty much means 2016.)

Are any of the games they said are coming out this year coming out this year? Starting to think the EDF dates are placeholder dates too.
EDIT: Oh that's been pushed too.

With the notable exception of Corpse Party: Blood Drive, all dates attached to Xseed's future stuff are placeholders. If you're looking for ballpark dates, Marvelous Europe has historically been far more accurate.
Aksys still has outside-of-Japan rights for Muramasa, though.
Well XSEED did have all of GKH translated, but it got shelved since Vanillaware focused on Dragon's Crown instead of sparing staff to program GKH. Was going to have a physical copy at the time, too...

They've got the first few months too front loaded now. There's no way some of these games aren't getting pushed back to next summer and next fall/winter.
SC is getting pushed to 2017.

Which games are you talking about? I think EDF and Cold Steel will probably make this year. Maybe early January for 1 or 2 of them.
Then there's Popolocrois and EV in Feb/March
Doesn't seem that bad
Making this thread was worth it back in the day lol.
But despite the SV announcement, I'm actually looking a lot more forward to Xanadu Next.

Earth Defense Force 2: Invaders from Planet Space
Earth Defense Force 4.1: The Shadow of New Despair
^(release dates are placeholders I have no reason to believe they are coming on the dates listed)
Nitroplus Blasterz
Senran Kagaura; EV
Popolocrois
Cold Steel
Trails SC
In addition to all the PC games
Some shit is going to get pushed waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back to late 2016/early 2017.
I thought I'd have heard about it if there was any given KT's threats, but guess not.

Xanadu Next and LKS, por favor.

XSEED placeholders are always dates that they're trying to meet, sort of best case scenarios. They're not completely made up.
The EDF titles are going through final QA
SC is done with QA and is in master testing
Nitroplus Blasterz is a fighter that probably requires little localization work
And then you have Cold Steel, EV and Popolocrois. The PC titles are already spread out over 2016.
I think you're being way too dramatic.

For those wondering why LKS looks how it does currently.

Is that really all that resulted from the XSEED event? Blimey, that's about as underwhelming as it could've got. Ah well.
Probably why they tried to keep it hush-hush.

It looks like the event was more of a hands on for the press than something for new announcements. Can't blame people for getting hyped up, it always happens without fail, but XSEED barely acknowledged it was happening. Probably because they didn't want people expecting too much.

Well, that had the exact opposite effect.
Better to set proper expectations next time. It's cool stuff, but not the cool stuff I was hoping for.

To be fair, they could have listed every game announcement under the sun and given release dates for each one of them, people would still find something to whine about in the end.
I'm just glad that we got videos for at least one of the things I care about, even if the salt runs freely when it comes to another release.

Is XSEED teasing a new game?
I just realized that they teased the LKS Oni a while back... huh... As for this maybe, or just they tried making it symmetrical with a doodle.

I hope not they've got too much on their plate.

Soul Hackers got an official localization last year. It's from the 90s.
So uh, you're all kinds of wrong. It's never too late to get a classic.

YES LKS! That's awesome.
WHAT ?
have you played the first SK game?
It does look like they're hiding something. Probably the only discernible thing in that blurry ass pic, like a logo or something.Is XSEED teasing a new game?
That's probably too vague even for detective gaf.
Looking at it closely, looks like either machinery or an elaborate costume.

As someone who's only played the Vita version of Little King's Story and enjoyed it, I'm very interested in seeing the original Wii version on PC. The apparently superior version on a more advanced platform (potentially with better controls even!) sounds fantastic.
It's not the Vita version.

It's a different game. It's the Wii game port.
This is as far as I'll go because there's really not much to work with but if I flip it around like this:
it seems some kind of structure is in the middle, the sky on the top left and on the bottom those kinda look like faces.

If this is a tease, it's going to need a big imagination. It's hard to tell which way is right now!
The bottom right looks a little like the girl on the left's skirt. Also, lots of purple and what appear to be cherry blossoms.Is XSEED teasing a new game?
But will they play or even mod it if it's in 30 FPS?

Oh yeah, I played the original PC release a few years ago before it got a fan translation.
Looking forward to that official localization.
Also Little Kings Story on PC is awesome stuff.
Shinovi Versus is probably going to get modded to hell and back though.
