Original (1/19): Idea Factory just confirmed that Dokapon Kingdom: Connect will be released in English in the west. Fans in North America and Europe can pick up the title this spring.
Dokapon Kingdom: Connect was revealed for Switch earlier in the week. Although it was only announced for Japan at the time, an overseas launch was thought to be happening as a rating for the game previously leaked in Germany.
Here’s an overview of the game:
Everyone in Dokapon Kingdom loves money.
One day in this peaceful land, monsters suddenly appeared and began attacking nearby towns. The economy collapsed, and people were at their lowest. Taxes were no longer being paid, of course.
So that’s when the King took action!
He decided to gather the bravest warriors to rescue these towns so he can get paid! In exchange, the one who collects the most shall be rewarded with the Princess’ hand in marriage and the throne.
And thus, an adventure for money begins, where absolutely anything goes!
