God Eater Resurrection will launch for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita on October 29 in Japan, Bandai Namco announced. The game will cost 6,170 yen on PlayStation 4 and 5,120 yen on PS Vita.
First-print copies of the game will include the “Another Character: Lindow” downloadable content—a version of Lindow who possesses a charge spear.
Bandai Namco will also release a “Cross-Play Pack & Anime Blu-ray Disc Set Vol. 1,” which includes both the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions of the game, plus a Blu-ray disc, for 9,980 yen.
God Eater Resurrection is a remake of the PSP game God Eater Burst. It adds a number of new elements, including:
- A new “Predator Style” of combat, allowing players to devour enemies while in the air and while dashing.
- The Aragami “Dyaus Pita” has been given a makeover. He’s much more villainous than before.
- The same six sword blade categories from God Eater 2: Rage Burst are in the game (Short Blade, Long Blade, Burst Hammer, Buster Blade, Charge Spear, and Variant Size).
- Transformation attacks return. After a sword-shape attack, your weapon can convert to its gun shape.
- There is an after-story leading into God Eater 2.
Following the first volume of the Cross-Play Pack & Anime Blu-ray Disc Set, Volumes 2 through 7 will follow trading God Eater Resurrection for different compilations of a smaller game called God Eater Off Shot, which is basically the God Eater version of The Idolmaster‘s Gravure 4 U games. It lets you take pictures of God Eater‘s male and female characters.
