Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth NA Release Date Announced [Feb 2nd 2016]
- Thread starter Newtype-001
- Start date
You realize this attitude is actively hurting bringing these niche games to the US right? I understand wanting to be thrifty but if you signed a petition and all you could at least put your money where your mouth was.
They added in some difficulty settings that the JPN release did not have.
Yep just no preorder. They are putting it up on release day.

There will be a digital ver on PS4 right?

Seriously. Fuck that attitude. Because of 8 measly bucks.
Thats not how you support your IP thats about to sink in the abyss.
Man, as the days go on I'm getting more hyped for this. I keep getting flashes of Digimon World 3/2003 watching the gameplay and my love of that game is pushing me more towards Cyber Sleuth.
Probably going to go digital as it will likely be cheaper than the current retail price down here, along with the fact the disc version is only releasing on the 19th locally.

Is anyone in the US getting release date delivery from Amazon for this? Mine is scheduled for delivery on the 4th.

Every PS4 game is required to be on PSN as well, so yes.

Yeah, I also hope games I asked to be localized to bomb so I can get them for cheap.
What the fuck is wrong with you
Man, everything I've heard had pointed to the game easily being worth it. I really hope the game does well I used to love the digimon rpgs, and this one looks like it's the best.
Getting it day one for me. Probably gonna go with my cliche taste of wanting war greymon and/or Omnimon/omegamon eventually.
New Game + as well. Haven't seen what the options are but I am guessing the original setting will be the default with a new harder mode available. Probably will just adjust HP and damage values but even that should bring the difficulty up. There is also talk of them rebalancing some of the more broken digimon abilities.
Bonus DLC applies to any digital purchases within the first month. So it's available to all.

Got a PS4 physical copy pre-orderd and im getting the Vita version next week, im so damn hyped for this.
I am kind of annoyed that BandaiNamco isnt pushing this harder though :/ I get that Naruto UNS4 is coming out in the same week, but man..it seems like all their tweets have been about that. You'd think they'd want to promote Digimon more.

You'll get the pre-order bonuses with the digital version too!
Well, guess that was already answered :')
Okay GAF, why is everyone so hyped on Digimon? I've watched the series when I was younger & have the first movie somewhere laying around on VHS. I've even played through that terrible PSone game, but could never beat it because my Digimon didn't poop enough (I'm not kidding). So is Cyber Sleuth something I should look into?
Sadly Digimon has been mostly dead for a decade so the fact we are getting this game at all is a test to see if there is still interest. It's not a coincidence that the game is aimed at older audiences and involved a lot of fanservice to anyone who watched the original shows as opposed to the newer shows. Also Naruto is a super valuable franchise that will probably be over soon so they have to push it while they can.
Watch some videos on it for the best explanation. It's basically a high quality jrpg that has a lot of nods to the original shows and some original systems and level progressions.

Man, Im actually looking forward to this.
A real Digimon console game...
It feels like its been so long (Don't mention Digimon World 4 pls).
Edit: Okay, well it's technically a handheld port...

this is exactly the kind of things I hate when a game price drop.. they hurt themselves by letting people think how they should value the game instead of the devs.
I won't say how you should spend your money or if you should buy or not a game, but you should have at least some word for the petition you signed, if not don't sign it and get to the game's thread with such a happy attitude about dropping your own word.
I didn't sign any petition, but because I know these niche games are very hard to get localized, I'll buy it from release.
I'm getting the same date, so I suppose there's no release date delivery on this one

This game isnt like that digimon world game, this is more RPG ish/ like SMT persona like. Although i'm hoping this sells well so we get the sequel to that same digimon game which happens to come out in march in japan.
I think it's more like digimon world 3.

I'm hyped because I grew up with Digimon and this game is supposed to be really good.

Me and my brother are jumping since digimon world 1 so we got 2 sales from my household.
Yep. The original JPN release was not but they added it in with the international versions. We also have 2 brand new digimon.
You do understand you are actively hurting your chance of getting these types of games again, right? You even have GCU and Amazon, you're already getting it at a reduced price.

I always liked Digimon more than Pokemon because it was more serious. I primarily want to indulge in nostalgia, but it seems like the game is great beyond that
BTW guys, digimon heroes the mobile game is available now world wide on ios and Android

from what I know, it seems to be standalone and there are some pretty dark themes in it.
I have The Witness to hold me over. God I love puzzle games.

How frequent are random encounters? Also, is it true that you can't rotate the camera with the right stick?
Mostly standalone, but there are references to previous Digimon games
From what I've heard, the story is pretty solid

Finally managed to pre-order this game. For $36, there's no way I could say no. Thank god for BB GCU because I'm about to go broke in the next few months.

I'm super excited for this game!. Can't wait to get it!
Thanks. Also is it cross-buy? Highly doubtful...
no, unfortunately..
I want to buy the vita version too, but for that one I'll wait a good discount, the PS4 version should be enough for me

there really isnt any third party games excluding indies, that are cross buy. Hope that answers your question.
Dude that's messed up.
Day one for me.
