Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson coming out in EU/NA this Summer

Will the game be available in shops?
Currently, our plan is to sell these physical copies, and limited editions, exclusively via our websites. If there’s sufficient demand for them, we plan to offer a lot more physical and limited editions directly to customers in future.

Online Store can only ship to US addresses.

What about Canada, XSeed? :(

£13.44 shipping to Germany and only available online
why

This. Quoting myself from the other thread:

13,44£ shipping to Germany for the game alone? Are they mental?
Also bummed out that I can't order right now as I don't have a credit card - I'll have to ask my parents. Though I'm not sure that I'll order straight away. Justifying a price of >65€ for the base game will be hard, even though we're talking Senran Kagura here.

On the other hand, though, I applaud them for making a physical version in the first place, because not having one, considering this is a 3DS game, would have driven me mad. I hope they continue these endeavours in the future.
 
Nothing on Xseeds store for the US yet. I do wonder if Gamestop will sell this like they did Versus on Vita.

I would totally import a CE from Europe but I don't want to triple dip on this after already owning the Japanese CE.

DLC also confirmed:

In addition to the core SENRAN KAGURA 2 experience, there are also three separate bundles of DLC scheduled for Western release. If you’ve followed the Japanese version closely you’ll know they are something special!

Maturity, bitches.
Should've grabbed the Japanese NyuNyu edition when it was ~$30. Game, figures, drama + arrange CDs, 3 disc soundtrack, and the big box. Thank you RegionThree.

Technically I still could. But I don't really want to have to be stuck playing on my old 3DS. It's now all about the new.

Also I don't even know if I want this. First game had mixed reviews and described as repetitive.

I imported just because they said theyre extremely limited... I didnt want to run the risk of not having all the cool stuff... NA edition, so far, is pretty depressing with only the soundtrack.

this is a great idea since they can make physical editions and if demand is larger, they can make more. i wish Sega and Capcom were smart enough to do this for games like Yakuza and AA.

This so much.

It's still at this price on many websites, they overproduced it.

I had a lot of fun with the first game, kinda enjoyed it more than SV, but the performance was terrrrrrrrrrible.

There's nothing they'll do about it, I asked on twitter. Really really stupid decision. Safe shipping in EU can be had for like £5. No need for whatever courier service they're using.

Yeah, I figured as much.
They know that they can do that, though, and I'm part of the problem as I surely won't miss out on this release. I'll just wait a while and see if there's any resellers that offer cheaper shipping or something.

I just ordered one and will cancel as soon as I see that it'll be available somewhere else. Literally any other shipping method would be cheaper

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
Will pick it up, even though I played through the Japanese version already and I expect Estival Versus to pretty much 'destroy' this game, content and game play wise. Gotta show support!

Japanese NyuNyu is dirt cheap these days? Now I feel like a dope for preordering day one. i guess i did get a preorder bonus with it. whatever.

Edit: Don't feel bad LiK, did the same thing, regretting it a bit as well, but the 4CD soundtrack was only for the first editions.

Also I don't even know if I want this. First game had mixed reviews and described as repetitive.

I think it's the best game of the series, and I had the same problems with the first one (which was pretty low budget). This one has no framerate issues (apart from the main room if you use the 3D mode) and has so many gameplay improvements and better balancing than the other games that I can actually consider it a good BTA.

Well it did sell worse than every other entry in the franchise.

It released during a bad time period, with a lot less marketing than SV, didn't have the anime happening at the same time, it was announced at the same time than EV, etc.
It could have done better.

Yeah, I find it kinda disturbing LOL. Would've been better if they included any one of these mousepads instead.

Yeah, but how do you choose that girl? Some would be mad about the choice. She is the right choice, just not necessarily the right pic.

It dropped from overproduction, and it sold less than expected. It's unfortunate, since I pre-ordered it as well, but I can always look at it as supporting the series I suppose.


What do you mean "this time"?
I bought the first game here in Germany in our local MediaMarkt store.
The digital release was waaaay later, iirc.

In the U.S., Burst was eShop only.

Oh shit. Glad it's coming over. Damn good game and the gameplay is the direction that the series should be moving in.

Kinda pissed US is just getting the soundtrack. I already have that from my import of the NyuNyu D:

Sure sounds like someone made quiet a lot of bad business decisions.

Come on xseed, give me that edition with the autograph from Takaki-sensei. I'll probably frame it for my life and hometown shrine.
 
I might have considered even changing my mind but they want to charge right now for it so ya...not gonna happen heh. To much to pay for this month with EV coming out.

Yeah they charged my card already for both. Whats going to happen is im going to forget about it an then July / Aug is going to roll around and im going to be like OMG BOOBS.
