I’ve never watched or read berserk but Musou. So I’ll buy.

DrellyFish · June 13, 2016, 6:19am

Unless more people appear later in the story…I feel this may not be a full blown Warriors game but probably some type of single player hack n slash adventure

Shin_Oni · June 13, 2016, 6:19am

Day 1 sold.

Geese_Pants · June 13, 2016, 6:37am

Confirmed heading to the West…

Ryuga · June 13, 2016, 6:43am

More people turn up in the story that’d make pretty good playable characters and enemies/bosses. Hopefully it’ll go past the Golden Age.

Geese_Pants · June 13, 2016, 7:08am

Now I’m really curious as to what Western IP Koei Tecmo is supposedly collaborating with…

DrellyFish · June 13, 2016, 8:39am

Ah ok Perfect then maybe the cast could be Hyrule Warriors sized. haven’t read Berserk in a while and I only got a bit passed the end of Golden Age the last thing I remember reading was

Spoiler

Guts was looking for Casca and she was living with like some prostitutes, my details after that are fuzzy, but if I remember Guts atleast made it the village or whatever where she was

fuuuuuuuuuuck yessssssssss! Please don’t fuck it up Koei! This shit needs to be way more fleshed out than any other warriors, and it better be hard as fuck while not having shittly designed difficulty… crap.

Geese_Pants · June 16, 2016, 4:38am

http://www.play-asia.com/berserk-author-kentaro-miura-supervising-koei-s-berserk-game-aims-to-keep-the-ga/5f/747xd

some interview highlights:

Is Mr. Miura interested in the game adaptation of his creation?

Koinuma: Since we announced Koei will be working on a Berserk Warriors, Mr. Miura has sent us a New Years Postcard every single year haha. Mr. Miura is a man grounded in reality and he really wanted the Warriors feeling to remain, but with a Berserk flair, he’s even supervised the creation of the game from the very start.

Will the game’s story be following alongside the manga’s story?

Koinuma: As we did with our “Fist of the North Star” and “Attack on Titan” games, we like to create a story that fans will love yet newcomers can also come and enjoy as if they picked up the very first volume. Berserk Warriors will begin from the Golden Age whereas the anime will pick up from after Guts became a Black Swordsman.

What CERO rating are you aiming for?

Koinuma: Our policy at Koei is that we will never release a Z rating (18+) game and like “Fist of the North Star” before we managed to get a CERO D (17+) rating.

Will there be anything cut out due to problems etc?

Koinuma: Nothing will be cut. We had to cut a bit in the “Attack on Titan” game, but to be fair, the enemies were giants and that was a difficult task. With Berserk, since there are mainly humans or monsters, anything that may seem difficult we will push through and challenge ourselves in order to make it happen.

First trailer that shows some gameplay

Geese_Pants · June 23, 2016, 2:54pm

The English version of the trailer…already Day 0 purchase for me.

StockyJam · June 23, 2016, 4:42pm

not to hate on Berserk since i love Berserk, both the manga & anime, but i just dont see why Berserk of all things go down the DW road.

like i can only think of a few possible playable characters here.

meanwhile no Naruto or Bleach DW game?
man i swore to myself when One Piece PW got made it would open up the possibilty of more S Jump ips…but nope.

but hey, Berserk is fine i guess.
“its better than nothing.”-Inafune

Geese_Pants · June 23, 2016, 5:16pm

Bleach: Soul Resurrection is closest to a “Warriors” game…but the leveling process is pressing.

DrellyFish · June 23, 2016, 5:29pm

Koei said there will be some differences so its not literally Berserk Warriors. I know from the gameplay clip it still looks real musou-ish but we’ll see. I thought maybe it’d be more action rpg-ish kinds

Gasaraki · June 23, 2016, 10:01pm

Even the Hokuto one was more of a beat em up, and that game was awesome, so I think it’ll be fine as far as that goes. That game also had only 8 characters, they were just really, really different from each other and it was still fine, so player character variety and game flow are not something that worries me.

It’s difficulty and content variety I’m worried about
