Bandai Namco have announced that Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth and Digimon Crusader will be coming to North America! Digimon Crusader will be released later this year on both the iOS and Android under the name Digimon Heroes and will be free to play. Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth will be released next year on PS4 and PS Vita. The game will retain is oroginal Japanese name rather than be changed to Digimon World as the series usually is (in Japan the two are separate series while in America they take advantage of Digimon World's established popularity) While the game will be digital only on Vita, the PS4 will have a retail version as well. This is huge! Digimon games dissappeared from American shores after Digimon World Championship back in 2010 until last year when we got Digimon All-Star Rumble, a fighting game that did not live up to expectations. Digimon World Championship was more a breed-and-battle simulation game and as stated before, All-Star Rumble was a fighter while Digimon Heroes is a card RPG. This makes Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth the first true Digimon JRPG to reach America in 8 years! (9 by the time it's released). Yes folks it seems like Digimon has risen from the ashes like a mighty Hououmon. With these two games and the 6 part Digimon Adventure tri movie special Digimon fans will have their patience rewarded! We may even get Digimon World Re: Digitize Decode, yes it's older than Cyber Sleuth, but Digimon Crusader came out in 2012 and has already ceased operation in Japan. If we can get these games, why not that one? It's a great time to be a fan!

This makes me even more impatient to get a ps4 I really wanted this game when I saw it so makes me heaps happy knowing that we will get it. Yessssss

Can't wait for this! Now, I don't need that crappy Pokemon ruby or whatever it is.

Please Please come out in Europe! I still have Digimon World for the PS1, and it's safe to say I don't think I ever got more enjoyment out of a PS1 game!

I've been playing Digimon Heroes (New Zealand) through an APK I downloaded.

 

I don't have a PS4/Vita, so once again, I'm out. Someone buy it in my name.

 

I'd really like for Re:Digitize:Decode to come here on 3DS (at least). That's the only "new" console I have.

NOOO I wanted rediigtize the most out of all of the digimon games, bringing back the original digimon world gameplay that I put countless hours into would have satisfied me to the brink of tears.

Even if you can't support bandai, re:digitize has a translation and you can run it on a PC if you have one

Digimon, Digital Monsters. Digimon are the Champions!

 

Yes! The KH13 Digimon fandom is real! This is all good news to me! Can't wait for these games to come out!

Well, right now, I'm not really playing any Digimon games, but a while back I was trying to continue in the postgame storyline in Digimon World Dawn.

 

Well, glad to hear that the Digimon fans haven't disappeared.

Amazon killed the surprise when they leaked the PS4 version.

 

Still glad Cyber Sleuth is being localised, but no Decode... A few parts of the story will be lacking information on a few characters, including why a certain someone is stuck iirc. It's almost like KH 2 with tidbits we don't know unless we played CoM? Maybe not.

 

Shit I need a PS4 sooner than I thought.

I've been emulating it, but downloading the game is illegal and they aren't getting money that way.

Their is no way to get the game in support of them, I would buy it on my 3ds but Bandai has denied our cries for it, but its translated you'll know what you're missing at least and if you want to buy it when namco does release it, just buy it if you enjoy it that , besides I would still buy it if they did because of it being a handheld game

I saw this on  siliconera yesterday morning and here I was thinking of switching to pc gaming(with all these rpgs making its way over to steam plus I can spend time with all my waifus in Visual novels),but playstation keeps pulling me back lol.Anyway this is a HUGE victory for us here in the west,I hope this does really well over here,I myself can't wait to get this and now I'm gonna go get that eng translation patch that finished recently and play it, I had been following it for 2 years and then I lost interest but now It's time i took the dive back in to the Digital World.

It IS coming to Europe, sweet joy!!!!!!!!!!!
