Rhythm Thief & The Emperor’s Treasure isn’t all about music and rhythm gameplay. Producer Shun Nakamura assured Nintendo Power that the title is jam-packed with emotion.
Nakamura told the magazine:
“Let me put it this way: When you hear a song about heartbreak while you’re heartbroken yourself, don’t you connect with it much more deeply? Similarly, by giving players a hero to empathise with, all the moments become more powerful. The only other Rhythm game that I can think of that tried to connect with players on an emotional level was Sega’s Space Channel 5. I don’t think any other rhythm game has ever attempted to engage players’ emotions on as many levels as Rhythm Thief does.”
Capcom will be holding a Resident Evil Premier Party in Shibuya, Tokyo on Friday. Fans who won’t be able to make it out to the event will have an opportunity to watch the festivities online.
