Konami, a company with a history of both beloved franchises and controversial decisions, is making headlines with exciting news for fans of its classic Suikoden series. The recently announced Suikoden Star Leap marks a significant milestone: the first-ever mobile entry in the beloved RPG franchise. This announcement, part of a larger anniversary celebration, also includes news of a new anime series and an exclusive behind-the-scenes livestream.
Suikoden Star Leap boasts a stunning visual style, showcasing gorgeous 2.5D graphics with vibrant pixel art, immersing players in a vast Japanese-inspired fantasy world. For those curious about its place in the Suikoden timeline, the game is set between Suikoden V and the original Suikoden.
It's a remarkable time to be a Konami fan. The excitement surrounding Suikoden Star Leap is amplified by the anticipated release of the Metal Gear Solid III: Snake Eater remaster, the popular Castlevania crossover in Vampire Survivors, and now, this new mobile adventure. Beyond the mobile game, a new anime series based on Suikoden is also in the works.
The previously mentioned livestream promises a unique behind-the-scenes look at the development of Suikoden Star Leap, offering insights into its concept and creation.
