WayForward

System: Switch
Release date: November 3, 2020
Developer: WayForward
Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment


The last time Bakugan saw any sort of video game outside of mobile devices was back in 2011 with Rise of the Resistance on DS. Almost nine years later, to the dot, the series is back with Champions of Vestroia. I don’t think Bakugan ever had that sort of grip or longevity something like Yu-Gi-Oh! or even Beyblade has, but it’s gathered enough of a following to warrant continued support of the property so many years later, especially now with the new Switch game. The anime continues on with Bakugan: Armored Aliance following a sort of “reboot” with Battle Planet prior to that, so Champions of Vestroia just adds to a big push from SEGA Toys and Spin Master for the series to return to the forefront where it once sat as Property of the Year in 2009.

Dawn of the Monsters

WayForward has announced that it has picked up Dawn of the Monsters for publishing. It’s being developed by 13AM Games, the studio behind Runbow. WayForward “will provide creative support and handle digital publishing, distribution, and marketing duties in North America and Europe.”

It’s also been confirmed that Dawn of the Monsters will release on Switch. The project is scheduled for a late 2021 launch.

RWBY

Arc System Works and WayForward last teamed up for River City Girls. The two sides are now coming together for another project, this time based on Rooster Teeth’s RWBY animated series.

Details haven’t been shared, but the upcoming game is confirmed for launch in 2021. It’ll be released on consoles, and given the support we’ve seen from Arc System Works and WayForward, it’d be shocking to see Switch left out.
