Hisashi Koinuma, seines Zeichens neuer Vizepräsident von Koei Tecmo, twitterte auf Anfrage eines Fans hinsichtlich eines Sequels: „Nun ja, für Pokémon Conquest gab es eine Menge nicht fertig gestellten Materials…„. Zudem ist der Geschäftsführer der Pokémon Company, Tsunekazu Ishihara, laut Inside Games ein großer Liebhaber der Serie Nobunaga’s Ambition und würde ein Sequel des Crossovers nicht ausschließen, sofern genug Nachfrage und Begeisterung bei den Fans besteht.

Dank Inside Games wissen wir auch, dass Pokémon Conquest drei Jahre in Entwicklung war. Dies erklärt das Erscheinen für den alt-ehrwürdigen DS , während der 3DS bereits in den Läden stand. Manch seither neues Pokémon, etwa aus den Teilen Schwarz und Weiß 2, schreit nebst dem ominösen „nicht fertig gestellten Material“ nach einer Fortsetzung.

Wer trotzdem Pokémon Conquest spielen möchte, kann dies durch den fehlenden Regionlock des Nintendo DS natürlich auch auf einem deutschen Gerät tun. Über den Amazon Marketplace könnt ihr euch die US-Version von Pokémon Conquest (welche identisch mit der UK-Version sein dürfte) derzeit für 39,90 Euro bestellen.

Heute gibt es gute Nachrichten, denn das Spiel kommt nach Europa. Aber es kommt noch besser, denn lange müssen wir gar nicht mehr warten, schon in vier Wochen ist es soweit, genauer gesagt am 27. Juli. Pokémon Conquest ist ein Crossover Projekt zwischen Nintendo und Tecmo Koei und versetzt die Taschenmonster ins feudale Japan, wo es gilt, 17 Königreiche zu vereinen um sich gegen den bösen Nobunaga zu verbünden. Hier die Ankündigung in Form der Pressemitteilung (englisch):

POKÉMON CONQUEST FOR NINTENDO DS SET TO LAUNCH ON 27 JULY – NEW FEATURES REVEALED

Experience the Acclaimed Pokémon Series in an Entirely New Way in this Hand-Held Adventure

27th June 2012 – A creative new entry in the Pokémon family of video games delivers a new way for fans to enjoy this legendary series on the Nintendo DS family of systems. Pokémon Conquest, set to launch across UK on 27th July 2012, offers a fun new way to play Pokémon in a unique world called Ransei that is filled with adventure. Developed by TECMO KOEI GAMES Co., Ltd., the 2D game can also be played on the Nintendo 3DS system.

In Pokémon Conquest, players take on the role of a young Warlord who is linked with a Pokémon. Together, they must set out to recruit Warrior allies to strengthen their growing kingdom. Along their journey, players will encounter a variety of Pokémon, as well as Warriors and Warlords inspired by the Japanese feudal era. The game contains nearly 200 Pokémon, including many from the recent Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version games.

As the battlefield unfolds in Pokémon Conquest, players must choose the correct Pokémon type to inflict maximum damage on their opponents. In the turn-based skirmishes, players choose different tactics for intense six-on-six battles, and battle conditions can change on every turn, keeping players on their toes in anticipation of what will happen next.

New features in the game for players to conquer include:

Story: To save the Ransei region from Nobunaga, a powerful Warlord who is trying to take over Ransei, players must conquer different kingdoms to strengthen and grow their own kingdom. There are 17 kingdoms in total to conquer. Conquering all 17 kingdoms and ultimately uniting the kingdom will awaken the Legendary Pokémon and save the land from destruction. Story mode is organized by episodes. Players unlock episodes as they progress and each episode features a different playable Warlord and victory conditions.

Army Mechanics: Players can grow their army by recruiting defeated Warlords and their Pokémon. After a kingdom is conquered, players will also have access to the kingdom facilities such as training grounds, shops to buy items and mines for money. Players can also strengthen their army by linking with Pokémon. Warlords can have various linked Pokémon and switch between them before battle to strategically prepare for the type of battle they are about to engage in.

Battle Mechanics: Players will encounter a wide range of battlefields as they progress through the game. Each of the 17 kingdoms has a different type-themed battlefield. For example kingdom Ignis is fire-themed and has lava flows, lava beds and fire spouts for players to battle around. Strategically using water-type Pokémon to navigate through this battlefield will help players conquer this kingdom. Additionally, players can use the kingdom training grounds to train their army or find wild Pokémon and link with them. After battling with a Warlord, the game automatically registers them. Using the built-in local wireless connection on the Nintendo DS, players can battle with friends who also own the game with their registered armies.

Warlords and Pokémon: Each Warlord has a special ability that can change the tide of battle. For example, Warlord Oichi has the ability to heal all the Pokémon in your army. Warlords also have types much like Pokémon. This will determine how well they link to particular Pokémon. Some Warlords will have the ability to choose from several different kinds of Pokémon to link with.
