After experiencing many delays and noticing changes from developers in development, Digimon Survive To be final coming out this year. The upcoming role-playing game tells its story in visual novel-like chapters, while combat unfolds in turn-based strategic battles.
As we approach Summer Game Festival and all Summer Event Not-E3, we have a chance to learn more about the new game from developer Hyde and publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment. But, for now, here’s everything we know about Digimon Survive.
Release date
Digimon Survive has two release dates. The game will initially launch in Japan on July 28. It will then release to the rest of the world on July 29.
What we know
Digimon Survive begins with a group of students on spring break who visit a temple to learn more about the legends surrounding the mysterious local beast gods. The party is suddenly transported to another world, where they encounter a Koromon, who aided the lost by transforming into Agumon when they were attacked by other Digimon. Each student decides to work together to find their way home.
In Digimon Survive, you can team up and train 113 different Digimon. While you can absolutely do battle with whatever you’re up against, Digimon Survive also gives you the option of talking to your enemies – listen to your opponents and answer their questions in a way they find funny. heartbreak can also lead to victory and sometimes result in one enemy becoming another ally.
Between battles, the game plays out similar to a visual novel, providing the characters with time to talk to each other and make decisions about what to do next. Digimon Survive will have 12 chapters, with the story branching into three possible directions depending on whether you choose the path of Ethics, Harmony, or Wrath. Reaching a conclusion for any of these three routes suggests a possible secret fourth route that you can try later in the game. According to producer Kazumasa Habu, each route will take about 40 hours to complete.
