New IP from Level-5. Looks interesting. Looks like it'll be an investigation RPG game. Hopefully the investigation part is good

 

[Doom85]

Yeah, this looked pretty cool. Definitely keeping an eye out on this one.

 

[semiconscious]

wow! first level-5 game i've seen in a helluva long time that actually looks interesting...

 

[Danjin44]

I'm intrigued, some of its tech kind of reminds me of ID: Invaded.

But I dont think its going dark as that show.

For me, it reminded me of Astral Chain and Psycho-Pass

 

[Robb]

This was a nice surprise, looking forward to seeing more.

 

[daffyduck]

Name sounds like some sort of Judge Dredd thing, with the sentence carried out a particular way.

 

[semiconscious]

also: wish op had taken the time to capitalize the p in police - i read it & see a game about a bunch of cops that cut people's heads off...

see above...

This part really reminded me of ID: Invaded.

Its seems just like the show they also you to virtual reality in order solve crime.

Lol I didn't realize that. They derive Deca from deka which means detective in Japanese

The first screenshot makes me think of the crew in the first Alien movie about to awake from cryosleep.

Wish we got a game using Psycho-Pass's universe, besides that shitty visual novel

 

[Aenima]

Good to see something new from Level5. I like the concept.

 

[nikos]

Looks interesting. Definitely going to keep an eye on it.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Level 5 has equity with me so I'm interested.

Any word on PC? PS5 it will likely be.

 

[supersale88]

Woah, love Lv5. Hope this turns out great.

 

[Kataploom]

One of the many things that interested me, having just played Persona 5 Royal till yesterday (still on extra chapter but I'm taking a little break for Plague Tale Requiem), this is just more of what I want!

 

[Amiga]

Already sold

 

[Alexios]

Really don't like the characters art style (or maybe just the main characters' faces) but the rest/overall it looks swell.

 

[fran.fernandez]

All characters are binary?

 

[Rickyiez]

Very interesting concept , but need waifus to sell well

 

[Fake]

Looks decent.

Yeah, it's really hard for games from anime to be bigger. But recently we got some big anime games like Made in Abyss or SAO. Hopefully someday they'll revisit Psycho-Pass.

Hopefully someday, there are still no Level-5 on PC, right?

I think it's because Level-5 currently focused on children market, that's why all of their games are designed like that

 

[Perrott]

Awful character design, which unfortunately is business as usual for third-party Switch JRPGs - and sometimes first-party as well.

Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are on Steam.

 

[NanaMiku]

Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are on Steam.

Because the publisher is Bandai Namco.

 

[daveonezero]

This game looks great.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

It’s a Level 5 game, so it’s gonna have like 10 gameplay systems that all superficially seem interesting but it’ll be so easy that none of them matter

 

[Pejo]

Game systems and gameplay look pretty alright, but god damn those are some awful character designs.

It's like if they digitized Bratz dolls then removed 2000 polygons.

Why not just stick regular anime designs?

 

[Croga]

Gameplay looks nice! Not sold on those character designs yet, something about their faces just aggrevates me lol, it's a strange style.

Level-5 as devs though makes me always have mixed feelings.

Please make the battles somewhat difficult. It's insane to think these are the same devs that made DQ8 / Jean D'Arc back in the day, considering how piss easy all their recent games are.

 

[DragoonWalker]

Like the premise, like the colorful visuals... these are what Level 5 usually accel at though... their stories and gameplay often leaves something to be desired.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

I wish there was a Yokai Watch 4 announcement

 

[Morrie’s wig shop]

We’ll see, I’ve forever been burned by WKC.

 

[near]

A game about Level-5 investigating their own death, nice.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Character design is awful but the rest of the game looks tight.

Sadly they lost me when the MC turned into a cat.

 

[shoplifter]

I'll just assume that this is why Inazuma Eleven is 5 years behind schedule

 

[Oberstein]

New IP from Level-5. Looks interesting. Looks like it'll be an investigation RPG game. Hopefully the investigation part is good

Did you also spot the Resetera user bitching about Hogwart Legacy at 0:55?

 

[drganon]

Looks cool.

 

[Punished Miku]

Taking a very cautious approach to anything from Level 5. But I'm intrigued enough to keep an eye out for reviews, price drops.

I think that was the Hacker messing with the vet program. Probably a temporary thing

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

The character design kinda annoys me.
"Here's the genius brat that tries too hard to act cool while solving mysteries!"
"Here's the hacker that obviously *must* be a fat teenager living in a dark room with an evil grin!"

And so on...

Anyway, at first I thought it was an adventure game, but it turns out it's an JRPG.
Not sure how I feel about that.

 

[EDMIX]

This part really reminded me of ID: Invaded.

lol thats like the most generic sci fi thing.

Hopefully it doesn't fall under the normal tropes.

I want to be surprised.

So far, not a day 1 and 100% not at full price.

 

[saintjules]

Seems a lot of people are thirsty for turn-based JRPGs. Could be a comeback.

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

I wouldn't mind Action JRPGs coming from Level 5 (like Dark Cloud), and I'm all for turn-based.
But they should at least give us some interesting characters to look at.

I enjoyed Ni No Kuni 1, for instance.

I heard that before lol

Doubt.

It will have an audience, but it I worry about its future. I like different personally, but the gaming community seems to push back deep on different lol

SlimeGooGoo I'm surprised Ni No Kuni 3 isn't an insta reveal lol Maybe they have it being worked on as well or something.

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

SlimeGooGoo I'm surprised Ni No Kuni 3 isn't an insta reveal lol Maybe they have it being worked on as well or something.

I haven't played the second one, but I wonder how well it did sales-wise. I heard it's very different from the first one in some ways.

The first one is pretty charming, so I hope the third one feels like that as well.

 

[Neilg]

They dont have a good recent track record, but if they can pull this off i'll be all over it

 

[saintjules]

New Trailer

 

[gela94]

Looks pretty nice.

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Looks fantastic!
I smiled all the way through both trailers.
I love Level-5's art direction, the bold colours, the Saturday morning cartoon show vibe.
Really awakens that inner child energy in me, which is (being 44) sorely missed.
Please be good.
Definitely buying the shit out of this
