The popularity of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 on the main consoles has caused CyberConnect2 to release a sort of spin-off on the PSP. Ninja Storm 2 received positive reviews for amazing graphics, great control and a very lengthy campaign. Whilst Storm 2 was a 1 on 1 fighting game, Impact takes a different approach to the Naruto universe by adding tons of enemies on screen, and giving it a Dynasty Warriors feel. But will the controls and gameplay transfer over properly on the small portable device?
Developer CyberConnect2 confirmed the incoming closure of its satellite office in Montreal, Canada. At the end of July, it'll be shutting down its only other office beyond the main one stationed in Fukuoka, Japan.
The Montreal office opened in 2016, 20 years after the developer was originally founded. Its statement noted that the second office "led CyberConnect2 on a creative journey in the development of tools and cutting-edge techniques used in creating games."
No mention was made in the developer's statement about if it will offer any severance or transitional help to those about to be laid off.
CyberConnect2 boss Hiroshi Matsuyama has confirmed that a new .hack game is in development! in its 20th anniversary concert.
Yeeeesss!!!! I hope they vary up the dungeons, but I’m so happy this is a thing
I wouldn't mind some cleaned up remasters of the originals. Those are the ones I have real nostalgia for.
From Nintendo Everything: "CyberConnect2 has a pretty major game coming out in just a few weeks. The company has been known for working on major manga / anime properties like Naruto and Dragon Ball, but will soon be releasing Fuga: Melodies of Steel. In addition to being a new entry in the Little Tail Bronx series, it’s also the very first self-published title from CyberConnect2."
