One game that deserves a little more love is the title Switch, Wii U and arcade developed by Bandai Namco, Farpais Pokkén.
It has been well received three times but since then fans of this particular fighter have been wondering if there will be any follow up in the future. Twitter follower of Katsuhiro Harada (director Tekken 7 and a representative on Pokkén) asked the image of the industry if it would be open to return for a sequel.
While Harada would certainly be “fond of it” – as usual, it’s another situation that is beyond the control of the developer (in this case, Bandai Namco). As mentioned below, it is ultimately up to Nintendo and Pokémon Co., Ltd. On a more promising note, it is clear that Bamco is maintaining a good – if not good – relationship with both of these parties.
As for what Nintendo has done recently, in terms of the Pokkén Tournament, it is offering Switch Online subscribers a trial in July last year. With the 25th anniversary of Pokémon happening next month, who knows what might happen.
As for Harada, earlier this month, it was advertising at its new game under Bandai Namco that it may be the most expensive project the Japanese publisher has ever given the green light – and it may not be. it’s not a fighting game at all!
