Fist Of The North Star

Coming in 2018 from the development team behind the Yakuza series and based on Buronsons work from the 80's.

The announcement really came out of nowhere, but the team behind Yakuza is a perfect fit for it, more information will be announced at the TGS.

I think the name is actually "The Way of the Fist of the North Star"? like the japanese name for Yakuza is "The Way of the Dragon"

It's not an anime I'm a huge fan of but it actually looks really good and I'm interested to check it out because the Yakuza team are making it

Ha used to watch this series on channel 4 back in the day after the pub

Been a while but it does look similar to the Ken's Rage games but without the Dynasty Warriors similarities.

I used to love the arcade cabinet machine, where 6 pads would pop out and you had to hit them quickly etc

Taken from the Kiwami thread, only takes a couple of seconds to complete.

Can't see this being digital only seeing as Sega went to the trouble of creating an English dub, plus it was leaked early due to a listing for a disc version on Amazon.

Kinda disappointed to see this uncensored tbh considering the censorship style mirrors the anime.

Edit: Confirmed for disc release in the press info

I thought that as well, just going by reports earlier, but now others are saying digital outside Japan.

Great, probably hoping to much but would love a steelbook version like Kiwami.

Got to sit down for a bit tonight with this and I'm really enjoying it so far, the Yakuza template really works for FOTNS
