During the GGD 2014 Las Vegas event, VGBR captured and shared some gameplay footage from Namco Bandai’s upcoming Rise of Incarnates.
Another one of Bandai Namco’s free-to-play titles is being abandoned.
The publisher has announced that Rise of Incarnates will be terminated on December 15th 2015. The game’s currency is, as of today, no longer available to download.
GTM:
Rise Of Incarnates bears all the hallmarks of a modern videogame – a free-to-play business model, online-focused design and a setting ripe for further commercial exploitation. Yet beneath these features, the core of the design goes back to the early days of 3D combat games. That’s not actually a bad thing though – Rise Of Incarnates borrows a lot from Sega’s Virtual On series, a fact that can be traced back to its roots as a Westernised take on Bandai Namco’s own Gundam Vs Mech combat games.
Players of the Co-op Action PC title can now play as a new character
I didn't know it was going to be F2P.... hmmmm, a bit worried. Namco Bandai's past ventures into F2P hasn't been very enjoyable.
I hope they get it right this time. Love me some Arena Fighters.
Take Dragon Ball, mix a little Psychic Force and throw some Capcom in it a poof... Rise of Incarnates!
Naw, seriously, this looks pretty awesome. Will definitely have to peep it when it drops.
