Altesein/Weissy, Ace/Seven, and Gusion and Barbatos still leaves 3 more units. (It's 9 per dlc, right? Last one was Hi-Nu, Voltes V, Five sakura wars unit, and the chokijin?) I'm guessing the Flauros is one, but who would the other two be?

There's three possibilities.

1) More DLC down the road.
2) Those two had work done on them but fell through.
3) A random text document posted on the internet was not actually the dead sea scrolls.

If anything, this is a massive boost to its chances. Mobages are one thing but with this they already have four of the most intensive animations done in a style that could easily be reused. Like, with Flauros, Bael, Lupus Rex, and Gusion Rebake already animated, what else would you need for an IBO inclusion? If you started at the start of S2, all you'd need is a bunch of grunt/enemy suits that could get away with 2 or 3 attacks, and the regular Lupus. Maybe the Kimaris Vidar if you wanna make GaliGali playable.

As much as I love Lafter I don't think the Hekija would need two pages of attacks, you know?

Given the structure of the game lets you recruit people in a variety of orders anyway, I imagine they'll have dialogue depending on when you pick them up. If you're already writing a bunch of flags for if you get Gridman before Victory Gundam or Majestic Prince before L-Gaim, it's not a ton of extra work to write in a conditional for if Mika is there too. Of course, I doubt they'll have much impact on the plot or setting, unlike the 'real' characters, but I doubt they'll literally say nothing the whole game.

I assume they'll probably do it for real the next time they do a trilogy.

I’m assuming since the DLCs are each adding stages that any story stuff for the new series will be relegated to those and then they might get some special dialogue in combat for the big bosses outside of that, maybe.

I'd say more DLC is almost assured - remember that despite being a normal Banpresto-developed SRW, this is also modern Bandai Namco and "piles and piles of DLC" is just kind of what they do as a publisher now.

Power-armor Ultraman being confirmed honestly gives a lot of weight to the leaks that are floating around out there, because that's a seriously hot take of a series to predict out of the blue with no information.

IBO being big enough that they can make it part of the DLC and know that'll sell passes feels like proof that it will get to be a big player in SRW 31 - it's had its debut in DD, now they're putting it into the 30th anniversary game in a way that doesn't demand much but does let you throw Mika and friends at Zeon and Zanscare with flashy animations, and the obvious next point from there is that it would probably just be in the next couple of games as a recent big show. As a big fan of G-Reco, I kind of wish it could have had the treatment IBO's getting, because X was great for including almost every character you could want but in other respects (like the regular G-Arcane existing at all) it was kind of lacking, and in a world where they'd already animated the G-Self Perfect Pack and G-Arcane Full Dress I could see there being the money for a little more unit work.

Bloody Pom
Jun 5, 2011



Adding the regular G-Arcane would mean acknowledging that it can transform, and that's never going to happen :v:

Same thing happened with Cross Rays' DLC, they added the Full Dress but not the base unit.

GimmickMan

It would make sense that they went through the trouble of coming up with the mission selection system for a game intended to have lots of post-release DLC. You can pop in the new DLC, play the new content, and come back to the game in a few more months when Rebuild 4 and Getter Arc gets in or whatever.

On one hand, getting more and weirder series into the game down the line is cool. On the other hand, I don't know if I have it in me to play this game 3+ times just to have the new guys around all game so... Yeah, that system is a small blessing.

It's Ogami and iirc the guy from 5.

Endorph
Jul 22, 2009

Yeah, the other two are Ogami and Taiga.

It's actually the same group of characters that was in the Granblue collab, though Taiga was only a call-in for Gemini, so it's likely Sega wants those five specifically whenever there's a Sakura Wars collab. Though Taiga missed Project X Zone.

I was always told she and her VA were like the most popular character basically or one of them, but maybe this is more of a 90s thing. :(

IBO being DLC is so disappointing. But I guess we couldn't have that in the main game, it'd take space we need for Zeta and Char's Counterattack for the 30th time.

ULTRAMAN being in is one hell of a surprise. I'm okay with it being DLC because I'd like it to debut alongside its spiritual predecessor, Linebarrels of Iron (manga, obviously) simply because both would work extremely well together. Or hell, let Super Sentai out of gacha hell, get a Kamen Rider in, Toku SRW!

I'm pretty sure they're post plot and that the Gundam plot in 30 is NT and Victory

And I mean, Japanese twitter is going absolutely nuts for both the DLC and the third PV in general. SRW30 is likely going to be Big.

So if there’s a chance I may actually buy the DLC, should I just stick with the Steam version over getting a physical Switch version? Didn’t know how much of a pain in the rear end it would be to get the DLC on Switch if I only have a US account

It will be vastly easier to get the DLC with the Steam version, yes
