Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher launches October 20 in the west
Day and date with Japan and Asia release.
Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher will launch for Switch on October 20 in the west, publisher Bandai Namco and developer Koei Tecmo announced.
In Japan and Asia, the game will be available on the same date both physically and digitally.
Here is an overview of the game, via Bandai Namco:
In Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher, players take on the role of an up-and-coming rancher to breed, befriend, and train Ultra Kaiju for competition. The game features more than 200 kinds of Kaiju including combination variations to collect. Kaiju can be generated using Keywords or NFC-enabled devices*. Players can also combine or synthesize monsters to create all-new-looking Kaiju. In addition to unique movements from Ultra Kaiju not typically seen in past works, Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher sets the stage for epic clashes of monstrous proportions reminiscent of classic Ultraman bouts.
*One of the Kaiju regeneration functions—“Search for music”—won’t be implemented in the North and South America version.
