The New Denpa Men Returns to iOS and Android with Quirky RPG Action

The quirky and beloved RPG, The New Denpa Men, is making a surprising return to mobile devices. Originally a hit on the Nintendo 3DS and later remastered for the Nintendo Switch, this creature-collecting game is set to launch on iOS and Android on March 10th, as reported by Gematsu. The New Denpa Men was known for its innovative use of augmented reality (AR) through the 3DS camera, a feature that will reportedly be included in this new mobile iteration.

For those unfamiliar, The Denpa Men series allowed players to capture ethereal beings, known as Denpa Men, from their surroundings using AR technology and then engage them in dungeon battles. While not as mainstream as franchises like Mario or Zelda, The Denpa Men has carved out a niche following on various Nintendo platforms over the years.

Developer Genius Sonority is no stranger to mobile gaming, having previously released the original version of New Denpa Men on mobile devices before its remaster on the Switch. This upcoming mobile release marks a rerelease of that mobile game, now updated and ready for a new audience. While the original mobile version was exclusive to Japan, the Switch version saw a global release, raising hopes that this new mobile iteration might also be available worldwide.

With Nintendo increasingly focusing on mobile gaming, the return of The New Denpa Men to smartphones seems timely. As we await further details on a potential global release, fans of the series and newcomers alike can look forward to diving into this unique RPG experience on their mobile devices.
