The game “DOKAPON! Sword of Fury” by Sting is set to be launched on PC through Steam, offering both English and Japanese versions, as per the recent announcement by the developers. However, they have yet to disclose a specific release date.
Back in 2024, I got my hands on a remastered gem – a revamped edition of the PlayStation classic from ’98, bearing the same name. This beauty made its debut on Nintendo Switch in Japan on August 1st. As for whether Sting is planning to share this version with gamers outside of Japan by releasing it on PC, that’s still up in the air.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
Jump back into the fray with those who’ll soon be former allies in this board game turned RPG rematch! This time-tested, friendship-ending game is here again, and the secret to victory lies in getting under your opponents’ skin!
Spin the wheel and set off on an exciting adventure with your friends!
Journey through various landscapes, fight fearsome creatures, acquire valuable gear, and boost your power level – sounds like an RPG adventure. Once you’ve built up enough might, prepare for grand showdowns against formidable foes! But remember, the ultimate goal here isn’t just to conquer, it’s to accumulate vast wealth!
In this world, money seems to be all that matters. People seem willing to do anything for it, as long as it benefits them personally. But the question remains: will you choose a life of dishonesty and greed, or will you stick to your principles? Will you stand by your allies, or plot against them for your own gain? Here, the decisions are yours to make!
Enjoy gaming with distant companions in Online Mode, where you can take a break whenever needed, thanks to the Auto-Save feature that keeps your game progress on hold until you’re back!
This game offers a variety of display settings, including HD and widescreen support, creating an immersive experience like never before. If the game is too sluggish for your taste, don’t worry! You can adjust the speed up to 5 times to suit your preference. With an extensive range of customization options, you can tailor the game to your style: swap battle background music from previous versions, choose the number of weeks to play, tweak game balance, and much more! Even newcomers to Dokapon can enjoy an edge; everyone is invited to join in on the fun as this game caters to all players!
In a refreshing reappearance, the Wrathful Steel Blade makes its comeback to slice through the superfluous matters of the 2020s with panache. Don’t hesitate – seize its grip and experience the thrill of wielding it yourself!
Key Features
- Stick it to your friends and aim to become the richest of the rich!
- Whosoever winds up wealthiest in the end (meaning, the bearer of the most assets) shall be deemed the winner!
- How do you achieve that? Well, by fighting monsters, plundering, pillaging, and betraying your best buds; that’s how! All the rules are made to be broken in this board game!
- Need to fast-track your earnings? No problem! Try engaging with the alliance system, entering the Tenkaichi Tournament, or participating in other unique events to ka-ching like a king!
- And hey, if you just want an RPG adventure in an expansive (expensive?) overworld, that’s perfectly within your reach here too!
- Possibly the most heinous Dokapon game of them all?!
- Can this even fly in the 2020s?! I guess we’ll find out, since this remastered version retains all the same irreverence the original was known for!
- That classic pixel-art world from before is kept intact, but with all illustrations and 3D models updated and given new effects for their debut on the big, high-def screen!
- Every 3D model is a full-on ‘toon now, while the illustrated 2D art has been fully smoothed out. But if that’s too much change for you, no problem: the original pixel art can still be tagged in as desired!
- “Rock-Paper-Scissors”-style battles anyone can enjoy!
- Encounter an enemy and it’s battle time! But not to worry, because these battles are simple as can be.
- First off, a coin toss decides who goes first. When it’s your turn, you choose one of four possible attack types.
- Choose wisely, and you’ll be doing some good old-fashioned weak-point hitting for massive damage!
- But fail to predict your opponent’s defense type, and that massive damage may be yours to bear instead…
- Will you be able to read your opponent like a book? Will your opponent be able to read you? The tides can turn in an instant with a single slip-up, so make your move and cross your fingers!
- Same old multiplayer madness, but now with online matches, too!
- Up to four players can rumble locally, with only a single copy of Dokapon among them!
- Don’t have any friends nearby? (Lost them all to Dokapon fights?) No problem! Online multiplayer’s got your back. The world’s your oyster now!
- Best of all, you can stop playing anytime you’d like (you swear!), then jump right back into the fray later on by loading up your save data!
- Utilize the speed multiplier and up the game’s tempo to your liking!
- Yes, you can even speed things up to make the game match your pace.
- At 3x or 5x speed, even the busiest players have no excuse not to give Dokapon a try!
- The speed multiplier can even be used online, cutting down wait times and making the sparks fly faster than ever!
- Add some sugar and spice to make everything twice as nice!
- Call them X-factors or secret ingredients; either way, you can access them in the System menu and rebalance the whole game as you see fit!
- Just give it a pinch of this and a dash of that—only as much as you’d like.
- Maybe turn down the number of rounds, for example, if you’ve got a busy schedule and can’t quite handle the usual length?
- Or fine-tune the gameplay experience by giving yourself infinite magic, or limiting the number of times Wallace appears!
- You can even change the background music to some classic battle themes from past Dokapon games, for that little extra kick of nostalgia!
- What would a remaster be, after all, without that certain “je ne sais quoi” that gives this series its edge?
