It&#8217;s being developed by Rabbit &amp; Bear &#8211; a new Tokyo-based studio founded by key creators of the Suikoden series &#8211; and is taking on the form of a Kickstarter project that&#8217;s launching on 27th July (aka tomorrow).<\/p>\n<p>According to the official PR, Eiyuden Chronicle is an ode to classic JRPG from the PlayStation era and will feature both exploration and battles in high-resolution 2.5D graphics, pixel-based characters, and a story about war and friendship. There are also more than 100 heroes to recruit and a fortress building system &#8211; allowing players to grow their army. Here&#8217;s a bit extra:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The game will feature a guild system that allows players to change their fortress attributes based on the guild they join. Battles will be turn-based with parties of up to six members and feature dynamic boss battles that change camera angle and rotate depending on the environment.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<p>The story will be written by Suikoden, <strong>Suikoden II<\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/3ds\/alliance_alive\">The Alliance Alive<\/a><\/strong> writer, Yoshitaka Murayama.<\/p>\n<p>In order for this game to go ahead, it needs $500,000 USD (before 28th August) for a PC release. This will then unlock stretch goals for a Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X version of the game. The targeted release date is fall 2022.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"picture strip\"><a title=\"Suikoden\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/63fbb8387ba10\/suikoden.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg' viewBox='0 0 900 494'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" width=\"900\" height=\"494\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/63fbb8387ba10\/suikoden.900x.jpg\" alt=\"Suikoden\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"picture strip\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"picture strip\">\n<div class=\"img\"><a title=\"Eiyuden Chronicle\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/77b3cf40a0528\/eiyuden-chronicle.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg' viewBox='0 0 900 507'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" width=\"900\" height=\"507\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/77b3cf40a0528\/eiyuden-chronicle.900x.jpg\" alt=\"Eiyuden Chronicle\"><\/a><span class=\"image-credit\" title=\"Image Credit\">IGN<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>More details can be found on the game&#8217;s <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/rabbitandbearstudios.com\/eiyudenchronicle\/\">official website<\/a>.
