Publisher 505 has picked up Suikoden spiritual successor Eiyuden Chronicle.
Eiyuden Chronicle, a new Japanese role-playing game from some of the key creators of beloved 90s JRPG Suikoden, launched a Kickstarter on 27th July 2020 asking for ¥53,808,516 (approx. £370,202). The crowdfunding drive quickly smashed that target, and settled on ¥481,621,841 (approx. £3.4m) from 46,307 backers.
The game will feature a traditional six-character battle system with 2D sprites, 3D backgrounds and a story written by Suikoden 1 and 2 scenario writer Yoshitaka Murayama.
