We finally learned the specific release date for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, a jRPG from the creators of the Suikoden series.
Rabbit & Bear reveals release date for jRPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. The game will debut on April 23, next year.
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is heading for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. The PC version will be sold on Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG.com.
Release date of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes was revealed during the Nintendo Direct presentation. On this occasion, a new trailer was also released, available above.
Recall that the game suffered several delays. Initially, it was supposed to debut in 2022, but the great success of the fundraising on Kickstarter ($4.5 million was raised, nine times the minimum goal) made the project much more ambitious. The new deadline was supposed to be this year, but two months ago it was announced that the game's launchwill be delayed to the second quarter of 2024. Now we know the exact released date for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes and we hope that there will be no further delays.
Many fans of jRPGs are waiting for the project, as veterans of the classic Suikoden series are responsible for it. The team is headed by the father of the series, Yoshitaka Murayama, and many other people who played a key role in the development of the brand, such as Junko Kawano, Osamu Komuta and Junichi Murakami, are involved in the work.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes will be shown at Tokyo Game Show 2023, which will be held from September 21 to September 24, so we should receive a lot of new footage from the game soon.
