, that Sega is now reviving the previously popular Sakura Wars series, which included games and anime. On April 3, the new anime will start in Japan. The game Sakura Wars was also released in its home market, and the PlayStation 28 version is scheduled to launch in the West on April 4. It's time for the Sakura Wars story trailer.
The video, like the game, is voiced in Japanese, but Western users will have to be content with subtitles. Moreover, the Russian language is not yet provided - only English, German, French and Spanish are announced. It is curious that in the 2000s everything was different: the domestic company Akella officially translated the games in the series into Russian, although they never received an English translation.
In this visual novel, the player will encounter a number of colorful characters, interactions with whom are played out through the special dynamic dialogue system LIPS, a signature feature of the series. As the creators promise, the development of the charactersβ dramatic storylines cannot be predicted until the very end.
The words of the protagonist and the decisions made will also be important during the battles. Pilots of giant war machines battle in an alternate 1940s steampunk Tokyo. These powerful exoskeletons are called spiritual armor: they can only be controlled by those whose spirit is strong.
Sakura Wars is made in an original style and, in addition to stylized computer graphics, offers hand-drawn animation inserts. Sega hopes that the new game and accompanying anime can reignite interest in the Sakura Wars series and attract new fans.
The physical edition of Sakura Wars includes a reversible disc and a set of stickers featuring the main characters.
