Koei is a Japanese game company specialized in historical simulation games. Among some of their most famous works are games like
Dynasty Warriors (真・三國無双),
Nobunaga's Ambition (信長の野望),
Romance of the Three Kingdom (三國志),
Samurai Warriors (戦国無双), &
Uncharted Waters (大航海時代). They also created quite a few more feminine game series, althou these are less well known (at least by me) since they are prolly not as widely distributed as their historical/action games are.
Soooo, why am I suddenly talking about Koei? Well, it turns out that I was roaming their web like usual just then & I saw this...
AKB48's Ambition!
Quoting from their
official web:
「聖歌」で創られた架空の世界 「ラ・チャント」 を舞台に、AKB48のメンバー全員がそれぞれの
野望を叶えるために戦う国盗り型ソーシャルシミュレーションゲーム。
指揮官となって、他のプレイヤーと共に推しメンが扮する 「巫女(みこ)」 の王座獲得を目指せ!
The player will be the fan of the members it seem? Also it is called a social simulation game? Additionally the word 国盗 was used, so the player are gonna try to be an
usurper? So is politic an element in this game? It says it will be published sometime in 2013, but not specifically when.
So what do you folks think of it?
Personally it seems more interesting to me than Renai Sousenkyo lol. The costume the five are sporting also look nice, especially Yuko's & Mayuyu's.
Not a lot of information thou, so I guess not much to comment on for now..
in other news, my wireless internet has comeback to life! not that this is relevant to you guys lol.Edit: Looks like this isn't really news, as it was posted in some of the members' thread already. Didn't roam there for awhile due to lack of wifi.
Just gonna steal two pics from Masa for the sake of more pics.
Credit to Masa!
These are two different factions it seems? Also the game seems to be a smartphone game. Dunno is that good news or bad news for of you folks.
