JANUARY UPDATE 2024 Hey there, heroes! Happy New Year! We're finally into 2024 and ever-closer to the Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes release! To kick off the new year, we have some special messages from the team and another little sneak peak to whet your appetite for things to come! DEVELOPER UPDATE MURAYAMA Rabbit and Bear Studio representation, Yoshitaka Murayama, here. This is the year that our beloved Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is released. What was still just a dream for us at the time of the 2020 Kickstarter campaign is now becoming a reality. Please look forward to it. KAWANO Happy New Year for 2024! Character Design Lead, Kawano here. Here’s to the year to come. Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is finally releasing this year. There’s just a little longer to wait. And since this is the year of the dragon, I drew a picture of Nowa riding a dragon to be used in our new years greetings.

Since I’m already spilling the beans, then I’ll reveal that the character I drew for the 2021 spring greetings will also appear in the game! Please keep an eye out for them.

With the release date set and production in its final stages, we have been busier than ever this past year with trailer production, events, backer responses, etc., but thanks to your warmth and support, we have managed to get through it. Again, thank you very much! Finally, this year will be the release of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. The Japanese version has already entered the phase for final bug checks and fixes, and all that remains is to work with 505 Games to get it localized and platform-ready. But now that you mention it, checking and adjusting RPGs is a lot of work... It is really hard work, especially for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, because it has so many elements, not to mention platform developments and localization support. Unexpected issues occur every day. The days continue to pass by, but we are definitely moving toward completion. Once the game is somewhat stable we will be able to provide beta access to all backers, so please be patient! Although there are only a few days left insofar as production, we will continue to do our utmost and we look forward to your continued support. Murakami J KOMUTA Happy New Year everyone! Komunichi-wa, Komuban-wa, it's director Komuta! The year 2023 was a rager. As we announced the release date last fall, this year will finally see the release of the Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes! As for as development is concerned, the project has entered bug-checking, with the team working together despite being almost crushed by the volume like we'd joked about at TGS. Bugs can be as small as a simple typo or as large as something that stops the player from progressing at all, and the number of supported languages and platforms makes the battle against bugs as fierce as a scene out of Starship Troopers. Some problems can be fixed easily while others require emergency meetings, so we are always on our toes. Every day, however, we are definitely nearing completion, so please wait just a little longer! Last but not least, our first Komuta D's Sneak Peek of the year! Since it is the Year of the Dragon, I will show you the heroic combo of Nowa and his partner Chandra.
