Konami, a company with a history of mixed feelings among fans, especially after its pivot to pachinko, has been turning things around. This positive shift was highlighted during the anniversary stream of the beloved RPG franchise, Suikoden, which unveiled a wealth of new content, including a brand-new mobile release titled Suikoden Star Leap.
For the first time, Suikoden Star Leap brings the franchise to mobile devices, and the trailer showcases stunning 2.5D art with vibrant pixels set in a vast Japanese fantasy world. This new entry in the series is positioned in the timeline between the events of Suikoden V and the original Suikoden, offering fans a fresh perspective on the beloved universe.
It's an exciting time to be a Konami enthusiast. Alongside Suikoden Star Leap, fans can look forward to the remastered Metal Gear Solid III: Snake Eater, the return of Castlevania characters in a Vampire Survivors crossover, and more. But that's not all – a new anime series based on Suikoden is on the horizon, and the previously mentioned livestream offers a rare glimpse behind the scenes of the game's development.
