While many can agree that the game industry has been a series of hit-or-miss titles when it comes to creating games from our favorite anime’s, there is always at least one or two titles that definitely catch our attention. Once we find a game we enjoy from our series, all we want is more DLC’s and similar games for the series that it follows. Luckily, one of the leading names in the anime game development industry, Bandai Namco, has nailed this formula down and even held a live stream event called Play Anime Live to share all the upcoming news from their various titles. This full event has been shared above, but let’s go over some of the news they provided in that 40-minute long stream.
Scarlet Nexus
While we weren’t given any new videos or screenshots for this upcoming, next-gen game, the producer, Keita Iizuka, answered fan questions about this game. If you haven’t heard of Scarlet Nexus yet, I recommend checking out the announcement for this game as it introduces us to a new Brain Punk world.
Naruto To Boruto: Shinobi Striker
Revealing to include one of our favorite skilled ninja’s, Kakashi, we were presented with the trailer for the Season Pass 3 DLC for Naruto To Boruto: Shinobi Striker.
