Project Sakura Wars
Project Sakura Wars had a big showing at TGS, with tons of gameplay, trailers, the announcement of an anime series, and more.
One trailer showed us the gorgeous anime opening of the game, while another focused entirely on the game’s heroine, Sakura, with an original song featuring vocals by the character’s own voice actress.
The art style of Project Sakura Wars continues to look fantastic, and the character designs by Tite Kubo, the creator of Bleach, really work for the game.
In nearly 40 minutes of gameplay footage we also get a look at some adventure mode exploration, character interactions, and of course, mech gameplay.
The mech battles of Project Sakura Wars are fast-paced and furious, a far cry from the turn-based strategy of previous games. Still, it seems to be a change that fits the franchise and combat looks smooth and responsive, something hugely important for any action-RPG.
Fans have been waiting a long time for the return of Sakura Wars, and what we saw at TGS 2019 certainly provides hope for the upcoming JRPG.
