Bandai Namco Announces a Slew of Games Coming to the West

Publisher Bandai Namco has announced Western release dates for several games.

All of the games had previously been announced, but this is the first confirmation of releases outside of Japan. None of the games have an exact date but will come out sometime in 2016.

First, is the next installment of the long running Tales franchise with Tales of Berseria. Berseria was originally revealed in June 2015 and follows up this year’s Tales of Zestiria. It will be available on PlayStation 4 and PC, exclusive to Steam.

Next, two God Eater games are headed out of Japan: God Eater Resurrection, an updated port of the original game, and God Eater 2: Rage Burst. Both will be available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and PC.

Also, a Gundam game will be hitting, exclusively on Vita. The title is Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. Force and it features many Gundam models across the series’ history.

Lastly, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven is releasing in the West, only on PlayStation 4. The game is a two-versus-two fighting game with a roster that spans the entirety of the series 29 year history.

Additionally, One Piece: Burning Blood, previously coming to the West on the PlayStation 4, Vita, and Xbox One, will now also come to PC.

My Opinion:

I played a bit of God Eater on the PSP, so I may give those games a shot and the Gundam game looks fun. But man, I am going to play the heck out of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. I adore the franchise and the large amounts of characters that are playable makes me very excited.
