‘New Title X’ should be the final name, honestly
Publisher Koei Tecmo has announced that it is partnering with Japanese developer Akatsuki Games to produce a brand new, currently unannounced new game for Gen 9 platforms. As reported by Gematsu, this collaboration was announced in Akatsuki’s recently published financial report.
No details whatsoever were offered about the new title, but we do know that it is in production for “next-gen” platforms, (we’re really still calling it that?), and that the companies hope to release the game before the end of the financial year. So we can, in theory, expect the game to release before March 2024.
Koei Tecmo is, of course, famed for its handling of several popular gaming franchises, including Dynasty Warriors, Dead or Alive, Wo Long, and Ninja Gaiden. Akatsuki Games has produced licensed and original titles in all manner of genres, though the studio has more recently focused on mobile releases such as Romancing Saga Re:Universe, Dragon Ball Z: Dokken Battle, and idol-based rhythm game Uni’s on Air.
Stepping up to PS5/Xbox Series X development is certainly something of a leap from producing mobile games, but one would assume that the guidance and veteran nature of Koei Tecmo will help see the developer through. We will be sure to give you all a heads-up when the identity of this mystery project is finally revealed.
