The latest Weekly Famitsu (http://www.famitsu.com/news/201509/08087642.html) has revealed Segata Sanshiro will be a a solo unit playable character in Bandai Namco‘s Project X Zone 2, a crossover strategy RPG with Capcom, and Sega developed by Monolith Soft. The game will be out for the Ninty 3DS on November 12th in Japan, and in early 2016 in for us western commoners (North America and Europe).

I'm expecting great things from this game since its called 『PROJECT X ZONE 2:BRAVE NEW WORLD』 in Japan. Brave New World was the name from the intro music in Namco X Capcom for PS2, so maybe they will give more importance to what happened in this game.

Also I've waited long years and even lost hope that Segata Sanshiro would appear as a playable character in some new game, seeing him in one that focus in story is even better.

Still have to play the first one. I'm not a huge fan of the genre, but X zone always caught my attention. And SEgata Sinshiro...  8)

The game's really cheap now, and it's quite fun, so I'd say give it a go. Just uh, play it in small bursts. The game kinda gets overly repetitive if you play it for long periods of time. I usually only do a stage or two every now and again.

I'm never usually a fan of SRPGs, since usually they wind up being like Disgaea and being way too complicated for me (too many numbers to keep track of, tons of options, just feels overwhelming after a bit). Thankfully, PxZ is about as simple as you can get with an SRPG.

PxZ2 seems to be spicing it up more and getting rid of the cruddy elements (like DAMN REINFORCEMENTS) so I'm super hyped for it.

I'll keep that in mind when I pick it up. I agree with the Disgea styled SRPGs being a little complicated. I prefer a game where I don't have to think too hard but isn't completely mindless. PxZ sounds like it fits the bill  8)

Oh boy
Can't wait to see what moves they give him (one of them's probably going to be the double explosion suplex)
Also, wonder if his appearance is going to follow up on his departure from Earth by missile.
