Gamescom 2015: Marvelous and the otaku’s games in Europe !

Share

On my last trip to Germany, I had the chance to discover the Marvelous stand. Marvelous is a developer of games Japanese, famous especially for its flagship game Senran Kagura series, but also Corpse Party, Lord of Magna and more…

In Europe, the Senran Kagura series is the most popular Marvelous game! Released on 3DS in 2013, this game is a Beat ‘them’ all featuring the sexiest shinobis in the world!

The particularity of this game is that enemies lose their clothes as they take damage! It’s a little “ecchi” sometimes, but it’s okay, because there is a lot of humor,  the atmosphere is kawaii, sexy, but never vulgar!

At Gamescom, you could play Senran Kagura 2 on new 3DS and new 3DS XL, it was also a little star of the stand!

Behind the scene, you could also try the visual novel horror Corpse Party Blood Drive, and although I do not like this kind of games (I tried yet with Virtue’s Last Reward), it seem to be a nice visual novel for people loving stories and videogames!

Senran Kagura Estival Versus on PS4 is very nice graphically, because very close to a lively!

The PS4 (and PS Vita) version SENRAN KAGURA ESTIVAL VERSUS are planned for early 2016 in Europe (Yeah!) A new exclusivity for the PS4 at the time!) ! Suddenly, the visitors could indulge in the joys of the lynching of enemies in a confidential atmosphere…
