God Eater 3 launches February 8th, 2019

Deleted member 17627 · Oct 29, 2018

While I haven't been the biggest fans of the new character designs, the graphics and new gameplay mechanics all look really solid, I'm really excited to play this. This making Q1 2019 even more packed than it already is does hurt a bit.

Also, kind of find it funny that even though Code Vein was revealed and announced prior to this game, we still don't have a release date on it.

I think you meant 2019, not 2018.

AndyVirus · Oct 29, 2018

Shame, I'll be picking up Shadow of the Colossus that week.

Might get it on steam for coop play with a friend. Would be my first god eater.

Manu · Oct 29, 2018

Nice. I liked the JP demo so I'm jumping in.

You right. Can a mod please change it?

Sonicfan059 · Oct 29, 2018

I loved the first two. A nice Monster Hunter Clone.

Philly Cheesesteak · Oct 29, 2018

Awwww yisssss. Morherfuckin Aragami. Hopefully a built from the ground up GE game will scratch the itch that MHW can't scratch. I need my anime monster hunting!

Anime Monster Hunters are the best. Still sad we never got a Toukiden 2 Kiwami though, that game was really polished, but reaaaally needed some more content.

What the hell happened to Code Vein?

Anyway, this studio seems to excel in taking the concept of another franchise, making it more "anime" if that makes any sense, then making the gameplay somewhat worse. That's what I've gotten from playing GE1 and seeing footage of Code Vein.

Kalor · Oct 29, 2018

I'm looking forward to it. Especially since they aren't limited by originally being on the PSP anymore.

I'm guessing the network features turned out to be a lot more challenging to implement than they previously thought. It was always really skeptical that they only announced them earlier this year and stuck to the original September date.

SilverX · Oct 29, 2018

God Eater 3 being localized before Code Vein even launches in any territory is very surprising

CatAssTrophy · Oct 29, 2018

I need to research more into what the new gameplay mechanics are. I have the first two PS4 remasters and have only played the first one. Felt kinda tedious but I still liked it.

It's still in development? I thought we just got some footage from it during the summer.

Yeah I knew I was going crazy lol:

Renteka-Bond · Oct 29, 2018

I liked the Demo well enough, So I'm probably in. February's a pretty dead month for me between KH3 and DMC5. Since it's on UE4, the PC port should be pretty good.

A lot of Code Vein's staff are part of the God Eater team, so they probably didn't jump to the latter until their work on the former was finished. I imagine Code Vein is for the most part done, but needs it's network features fixed. Once God Eater 3 is out in all territories, I can see Code Vein getting a release date announcement sometime in March and then releasing in the Summer.

They probably want to get Code Vein out too before they start doing a lot of marketing and promotion for the next mainline Tales game, seeing one of the general producers for the God Eater series is now the producer for the Tales series. I speculate that this management change might lead to some more folks from the God Eater/Code Vein games to help out more on future Tales projects now.

Mbolibombo · Oct 29, 2018

oh that's really soon. Didnt expect that

Sad there is no Vita release this time around..

60fps · Oct 29, 2018

Does it run in 60fps?

30fps is what made me ignore the first two games.

The demo on a PS4 Pro felt like 30 and the framerate was sorta bad, I hope they optimize it but I'll be getting it on PC for sure.

Deleted member 35156 · Oct 29, 2018

This will be my first God Eater game, hopefully it'll fill the void left by Freedom Wars :(

I'm really surprised to hear that, given that game is no MHW in the graphics department.

texhnolyze · Oct 29, 2018

Damn, so God Eater 3 is coming sooner than Code Vein after all, even though it's announced way earlier.

I assume you don't play on PC? Because the previous two are 60fps on it.

Don't worry. God Eater is a faster, more action packed MH.

Yeah, you could always see the 'Tales of' influence in the character design for GE which I thought was really good in GE2.

Staff at Bandai Namco have been much more fluid going from project to project for a while now, that includes Tales staff which went to various other projects for the past few years, both Zestiria and Berseria also had a lot of work outsourced to other companies, so if anything it was more of the opposite it could change for the next entry though, we'll know when it release next year.

Lant_War · Oct 29, 2018

Any word on a demo for the west?

Nothing yet, but I wouldn't really expect anything. Namco Bandai has a busy Q1 and I imagine the demo slot is going to go to Ace Combat.

Isn't Code Vein being made internally while God Eater is still made at Marvelous?

VoidPlot · Oct 29, 2018

The demo at NYCC was pretty cool. The AI isn't as brain dead :D

It's being co-developed between Bandai Namco and Marvelous I believe.

Deleted member 1839 · Oct 29, 2018

I liked what I played from the demo, a lot more so than the previous games.

Code Vein is being made by the usually God Eater dev, Shaft.

Yea I mean, Part 1&2 are actually PS Vita games and look like those, and STILL run in 30fps. That's the reason I didn't even bother to try them.

Mozendo · Oct 29, 2018

Any word yet if you can co-op the story?

Mechanized · Oct 29, 2018

Is this the first God Eater to not be on handheld?

Mechanized said:

That is correct, yes. They've made it clear that they wanted this to be a console project right from the beginning.

Aveis · Oct 29, 2018

Cannot wait to grab this!The first 2 were a blast to play on my vita,think i invested more than 200h's in them

Ada · Oct 29, 2018

Day one for the JP release in Dec and again on PC next year.

Involution · Oct 29, 2018

Yes God eater 3! I dunno if I'll be there day 1 but I'll be there for sure. Maybe I'll tidy up the achievements in the first 2 someday as a warm-up.

Actually, Shift is not developing Code Vein, that's just Bandai Namco Studios. No one knows what Shift has been doing lately, they've been silent since 2015.

Seems like they're apart of it as well as having some people from shift working at Bamco's internal studios now.

Huh, that's super interesting, thanks for the find! That explains why Shift hasn't had anything in development for three years.

nikos · Feb 7, 2019

Doesn't seem like there's much talk about this here. I've been looking forward to it quite a while.

Looks like it unlocks on Steam in about five hours. I'll definitely be picking it up. You can save 20% if you own God Eater 2: Rage Burst.

KaCo · Feb 7, 2019

Don't know how I missed this being released soon...

Even though I have this on my 'to buy list' I thought it was coming much later for some reason.

About to start it on PC, thanks for the heads up that it was releasing today. I had to restart the game (after setting it to Full screen?) for 4K to appear but it seems 120Hz is locked to 1080p or at least I can't choose past 60 Hz past 1080p resolution.

Maxina · Feb 7, 2019

Launches tomorrow huh? Damn, didn't even know till now.

Deleted member 34881 · Feb 7, 2019

Yeah I was wondering if there will be an OT for this or not. Didnt even see a review thread for this lol.

Ogawa-san · Feb 7, 2019

Out on PC now. I was so ready to jump in at launch, shame Bamco had to go ham on their regional pricing for latin america.

ScoutDave · Feb 7, 2019

I got my copy in the mail today. Havent had a chance to sit down with it yet though.

Aveis · Feb 7, 2019

Gonna grab it tomorrow!Loved 1 and 2 on my vita,really curious what Marvelous did with the series!Also,it was super weird to see like 0 marketing for this game,at least in europe
