Go Gold
Digimon Fans Rejoice – Development Completed
for Digimon World Data Squad, Digimon World Dawn and Digimon World Dusk
NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. announced today
that development has been completed on Digimon World Data Squad for the
PlayStation 2 and Digimon World Dawn and Digimon World Dusk for the Nintendo DS.
Featuring engrossing role-playing gameplay with hundreds of unique Digimon for
players to collect, trade and evolve, these three games will be available in
stores nationwide on September 18. For dedicated Digimon fans, the first
printing of all three games will include a sheet of exclusive stickers, letting
players enjoy their favorite digital monsters wherever they go.
In Digimon World Data Squad for the PlayStation 2
system, players can use and upgrade over 140 different Digimon in order to
defeat the Seven Demon Kings and rescue a group of kidnapped children. With the
all-new “Galactic Evolution System,” digivolving Digimon is easier and more
intuitive than ever before. Featuring colorful cel-shaded graphics, a
distinctive emotion command system that allows players to track their Digimon’s
mood and full voice acting by the original cast of the upcoming Digimon Data
Squad television series, Digimon World Data Squad is sure to provide fans and
newcomers alike with hours of digital monster-battling entertainment.
Digimon World Dawn and Digimon World Dusk for the
Nintendo DS are parallel games with different selections of Digimon for players
to collect and use. Featuring an interweaving narrative, the storyline of the
games is seen from the perspective of two rival groups as they seek to uncover
the culprit behind a disaster that is causing Digimon around the world to
devolve into digi-eggs. Gameplay in Dawn and Dusk is highlighted by a turn-based
battle system in which players strategically position the game’s 400 Digimon for
maximum combat efficiency. Through a local wireless connection or online via the
Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, players can battle against others and make
trades to obtain rare Digimon that can only be found in certain versions of the
game.
