クラシック IP を再起動するカプコンの計画は進み続け、プレイヤーの熱意が再燃します! 『大神』『鬼武者』シリーズに続き、名作ゲームが新たな時代を迎えます。

「大神」と「鬼武者」シリーズが復活をリード

12 月 13 日に発行されたプレスリリースで、カプコンは、クラシック IP をリブートし、高品質のゲーム コンテンツをプレイヤーに提供することに引き続き取り組んでいくと発表しました。 2026年公開予定の期待の新作『鬼武者』は、江戸時代の京都が舞台。同時にカプコンも『大神』シリーズの続編を発表したが、具体的な発売日はまだ発表されていない。注目すべきは、この続編がオリジナルゲームのディレクターと開発チームによって共同制作されるということです。

カプコンは次のように述べています。「当社は、近い将来新しいゲームをリリースしていない休眠IPの復活に注力しています。上記の2つのゲームのような古典的なIPのリブートを含む、ゲームコンテンツの豊富なライブラリを最大限に活用することで、当社は今後も効率的で高品質なゲームを開発し、企業価値をさらに高めることに取り組んでいきます。」
現在、カプコンは『モンスターハンター:ワイルドランズ』と『カプコンファイティングコレクション2』も開発中で、どちらも2025年に発売予定です。 それにもかかわらず、カプコンは依然として新しいゲームの開発を積極的に行っており、最近では「Nine Gods: Path of the Goddess」や「Alien Terminator」などがリリースされています。
カプコンの「スーパー選挙」で今後の作品が明らかになるかも

2024 年 2 月、カプコンはプレイヤーがお気に入りのキャラクターや最も期待される続編に投票できる「スーパー選挙」イベントを開催しました。投票の結果、『ディノクライシス』『ディアブロ』『鬼武者』『炎の呼吸』といったシリーズが非常に高い注目を集めました。
その中でも、「ディノ クライシス」シリーズと「ディアブロ」シリーズは長年にわたり新作がほとんどリリースされておらず、最後にリリースされたのはそれぞれ 1997 年と 2003 年です。 Breathing Fire 6 は 2016 年 7 月にリリースされましたが、このオンライン RPG ゲームは 2017 年 9 月に運営を終了しました。したがって、これらの有名なゲームシリーズのリブートが非常に期待されています。
カプコンはどの IP を再開するかまだ明らかにしていませんが、最近の「スーパー選挙」イベントがいくつかのヒントを提供してくれるかもしれません。結局のところ、「鬼武者」と「大神」も投票リストに含まれています。

His story explores themes of sacrifice, destiny, and the burden of eternal vigilance.
Lyra – The Weaver of Whispers (4★, Support/Healer)
A gentle yet powerful support unit with abilities that boost team synergy and restore energy through emotional resonance.
Her passive skill strengthens allies based on their current health and morale, making her ideal for long story campaigns and cooperative challenges.
🎮 New Gameplay Additions:
Echo Mechanic: Players can now replay past story sequences in "Echo Mode" to uncover alternate outcomes and hidden dialogue.
New Arena Mode – "Chrono Abyss": A rotating challenge dungeon that features time-bending environments and enemy patterns that shift every 10 minutes.
Enhanced Customization: New visual skins, aura effects, and voice lines for existing characters, including exclusive options for Aeon and Lyra.

A new seasonal theme, "Whispers in the Wind," with updated music composed by the acclaimed Himesama.
Overhauled UI and cinematic cutscenes with higher-resolution rendering.
Wuthering Waves Version 2.7 is scheduled to release on September 10, 2024, with a special launch event featuring exclusive in-game rewards, including a free 5★ character (player choice between Aeon or Lyra), exclusive skins, and a new event currency.
Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the world of Wuthering Waves, Version 2.7 promises a deeper narrative experience, stronger team strategies, and unforgettable moments.

The highly anticipated crossover between Sword of Convallaria and Delicious in Dungeon has officially kicked off with a thrilling month-long event, bringing together fans of both beloved franchises in a unique fusion of fantasy adventure and dungeon delving cuisine.
🌟 Event Highlights:
Themed Dungeons: Players can now enter specially designed "Culinary Catacombs" inspired by the whimsical yet perilous depths of Delicious in Dungeon. These dungeons feature monster recipes, edible enemies, and hidden ingredients that unlock exclusive crafting recipes.
New Characters: Introducing Sylphine, a hero from Sword of Convallaria reimagined as a dungeon chef, wielding her enchanted blade not to slay, but to "season" foes with magical spices. Meanwhile, Ludwig, the beloved chef from Delicious in Dungeon, joins the Sword of Convallaria world as a temporary ally, offering potions and battle-guiding tips based on his culinary wisdom.
Recipe-Based Combat: A new gameplay mechanic allows players to combine ingredients found in dungeons to create powerful "flavor-enhanced" abilities—such as Searing Saffron Strike or Mushroom Cloud Barrage—adding a delicious twist to traditional combat.
Exclusive Rewards: Complete daily quests, defeat themed bosses like the Goblin Gourmet King, and collect rare "Spice of the Realm" items to unlock limited-time skins, mounts (including the Custard-Covered Wyvern), and a special Sword of Baking Light.
Collaborative Story Arc: A serialized story mode explores how the two worlds collide—when a magical rift accidentally opens between the mythical realm of Convallaria and the cursed dungeon of Delicious in Dungeon. The fate of both worlds rests on balancing flavor, fury, and friendship.
🍲 Why Fans Are Raving:
The crossover has been praised for its clever fusion of Sword of Convallaria's epic fantasy storytelling and Delicious in Dungeon's unique blend of dungeon crawling and gourmet fantasy. Fans are particularly excited about the "taste-based" battle system, which turns combat into a flavorful experience—both literally and figuratively.
