 What is it? One of the most highly sought after JRPGs of last year, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, is finally coming over to US shores for both PS Vita and PS4. Despite being on both platforms, there is no cross-buy, but the game is cross-save if you decide to buy both copies. How much is it? PS4 version is $59.99 VITA version is $39.99 VITA version is available only via PSN. PS4 has a physical copy. Pre-ordering the game gets you this:  Version Differences? PS4 runs at 1080p/60fps where VITA is set at 30fps and resolution depending on your system. I.e. 720p on VitaTV. PS4 has sharper and cleaner character models. Environments very much look like an upscaled VITA game. PS4 takes up a whopping 2.5GB VITA is 1.5GB How does it play? It's a turn based RPG where your three dudes line up against the enemy in an Final Fantasy 10 type way where the battle order can be seen on the right side of the screen. You can also substitute your three Digimon warriors out from any party members you have sitting in reserve. There's a maximum limit of 11 Digimon at any time, but your party makeup can only have so much 'memory points.' Digimon ranks determine what their memory point total is. I.e. babies take up 2-3 points whereas megas can take up 20 points. However you want to get your math on. You'll be able to increase your max memory the more you progress in the game. In order to 'capture' or recruit a new Digimon, you have to face it in battle enough times to get a 100% data rating. Since encounters are random battles, this shouldn't be too much of an issue. Before traveling into a dungeon, it will tell you what kind of Digimon is found in that location. AFIAK once you achieve 100% data, you can simply create as many of that Digimon as you want. Otherwise, you can discover new Digimon by digi-evolution. When your Digimon reach a certain level they can digivolve into a stronger form. The resulting evolution is dependent on level and by reaching certain stat points. For example - Agumon can digivolve into: GeoGreymon Greymon Meramon Tyrannomon Sukamon Each with their own stat, level, happiness, or item requirements. The best part is that digi-evolution is completely your choice. No randomness involved. You can even devolve your Digimon if you want to go back a step, or you need to acquire a certain skill to re-evolve into a different form. Got all that? There is also a DigiFarm where you can level up inactive Digimon or train specific stats in order to achieve certain digi-evolutions. Online features include battling your friends and their Digimon. (I don't know all the details about this). There is also a New Game+ mode for anyone who wants to start over. What Digimon can I play as? All the playable Digimon are listed below.

Yikes, I've forgotten this was next week. Well, I've got Cold Steel incoming (hopefully tomorrow), so this will join my big list of games to get around to eventually.

Motto posted:Anybody have any impression of the game, since it came out almost a year ago in Japan? Combat itself isn't super complex, though, it's pretty standard RPG. It's not bad in any way, but the draw is definitely messing with which mons you're using and how they progress as you level them up.

Really looking forward to this. Digimon world on the ps1 was probably my most played game as a child. i was always disappointed they didn't do a proper follow up, traveling around the weird world and slowly building up your town while also raising your own digimon was so unique. Does anyone know if that remake/sequel DW Next Gen will be coming over or if it'll come to PS4? That digimon card game on the ps1 was also pretty great.

Just preordered this today, pretty stoked. On paper I love the original Digimon World style of gameplay, but in practice I don't want to grind for hours to get a Digimon I want only to have it die a few days later. I had Digimon World DS and it was a pretty fun game so I think I'll enjoy this! Didn't even realize this game was going to have the online components, that should make for some fun times.

Never saw any Digimon on TV and never played any games based on the brand, but this game is giving off a bit of a P4 vibe minus the social links.

The people behind translating this game said it best when the thematic difference between Pokemon and Digimon is that in Digimon all this digital world stuff is unknown and new. So it shares a lot with MegaTen games when something freaky suddenly happens and you're on the typical save the world from Armageddon plot. The only thing that's typically shared between digimon stuff is that all of the previous digimon created from then till now will show up to fight/capture, but in this case some characters from the previous game, Digimon World Re:Digitize, will show up. It won't really matter and you don't have to worry about missing anything out from not knowing about them.
