| Destiny awaits in Suikoden V Konami of Europe has announced it is to publish a fifth title in the Suikoden line of role-playing titles. Suikoden V for PlayStation 2 will be released in autumn 2006. Suikoden V adds a wealth of new ideas to the franchise. Suikoden V takes the player to never-before-seen continents within the game world, on a quest to trace and collect a magical rune needed to restore balance in the troubled world. Cast as an unlikely hero, players are charged with traveling the lands of Farlena in search of a mythical Sun Rune. To do so, players trek across the lush 3D environments, recruiting from the characters they meet on the way, cherry-picking allies with unique skills from an incredible cast list that allows for up to 108 followers. With the pawns in place, the player then oversees a final battle to bring back peace to the land. However, dependent on how the player fares in the time he has, Suikoden V also has a number of possible and surprise endings. New additions to Suikoden V include more interaction with the 3D landscapes, while battle parties of up to six characters can engage in skirmishes simultaneously. The game also includes all new mini-games used to obtain essential funds, while the 'Home Base' system lets users gather together their many allies to combine their individual attributes and enlarge their home land. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Game News :: home page |
