Some of the artwork has been carried over, but a lot of it has been changed along with the introduction of new cards which were not in the series before. Since this foundation for the series was so solid, the core game system and general rules have been carried over to Culdcept Saga, albeit, with more balance. The PS2 version was a very polished game with excellent mechanics within the gameplay system. So Culdcept Saga looks essentially to be a remake of the PlayStation 2 original, right down to using the same card art as was used in the 2003 release.
Taguchi was more than willing to set us straight on a number of topics, from the title's multiplayer gameplay to changes made regarding how DLC will be handled.and more.Ĭheck out the full interview after the jump. In advance of the game's early February release we managed to corner Namco Bandai's Nobu Taguchi, who is spearheading Culdcept Saga's localization here in North America. Culdcept Saga, which has been available for some time in Japan, marks a decidedly different sort of experience for Xbox 360 owners, one usually associated with XBLA downloads rather than a full-on retail release, though even trepidatious players may find the $39.99 price difficult to pass up, especially those looking for something different to play during their FPS downtime. Since that time, however, the franchise has faded into obscurity, but will soon be given another chance, this time under the banner of Namco Bandai for the Xbox 360. With iterations released in Japan for Sega's final console pair as well as the original PlayStation, North American gamers got their first taste of this unique hybrid in 2003 when NEC released Culdcept for the PlayStation 2 to modest critical acclaim. An admittedly bizarre meshing of board and collectible card game antics, the resulting gameplay potpourri comes across as one big happy accident, but one that has endured since well before the Saturn was pushing up daises.
By all accounts Omiya Soft's Culdcept franchise has no business being as fun as it is.
