Remember Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball series? It's been quite a while since the release of Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 on Xbox 360, precisely a little over eight years, but the folks at Team Ninja didn't forget about it, as mentioned by Producer Yosuke Hayashi.
Rise of the Rōnin producer Yosuke Hayashi and director Fumihiko Yasuda are watching Shogun and recommend you watch Yojimbo.
Koei Tecmo's Integrated Report 2023 published this morning alongside the company's financial results includes interesting insight from veteran Yosuke Hayashi.
Famitsu: "Rise of the Ronin is a PlayStation 5 (PS5) software scheduled to be released on March 22, 2024 by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE).The game is being developed by Koei Tecmo Games' Team NINJA. This is a completely new open world title set at the end of the Edo period in Japan. Along with a story full of historical romance typical of Koei Tecmo Games, you can enjoy an action RPG with a high level of combat typical of Team NINJA, making full use of melee weapons and firearms. In this article, we interview Koei Tecmo Games' producer Yosuke Hayashi and development producer and director Fumihiko Yasuda. We asked him in detail how the development of this work began, and what kind of story and game it is."
I know I'm probably the minority on this but I don't really care for many team ninja games. I can't think of one I actually really enjoyed. Ninja gaiden I liked but coulda did without, probably more a nostalgia thing on that.
I'd rather instead of making a full game just add it as an extra mode for DoA6 or something
I liked the old DOA Volleyball. I'd check it out.
I would like this too. I would also like for Konami to make another Rumble Roses.
So would I.
"Team Ninja Devs Would Like a Current Gen Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball Using Soft Engine"
probably the reason why they're downplaying mods...they want to make an Xtreme Beach Volleyball game with soft body physics. team ninja is just as naughty!
