The Japan Amusement Expo has announced a new arcade game for absurdly popular naval-girl franchise Kantai Collection, sure to give players obsessed with the thrill of kanmusu collecting an unhealthy new distraction – and further retaining the “collection” aspect by having players use cards to play in traditional Aimasu style.
Some images of the game have been divulged, revealing the girls in wondrous 3D CG (possibly explaining where the CG used in the anime came from) and overall allowing for a more immersive experience:
No information has been revealed concerning a release date.
This really needs a PC release, or something similar be brought to PC. World of Warships isn’t cutting it >_<, not unless they make the ships look like some cute anime girls
This will likely see some kind of console adaptation in the future.(most likely a PS4 game) The question after that is: Will it ever make it outside of Japan?
I guess people actually still go to arcades in Japan.
Actually, arcades are still a big thing in Japan and most of SEA.
That card collecting element is genius, that is going to pull in an absurd amount of money
How are the Japanese not bankrupt with all these card games
I can understand how stuff like Taimanin Arena does it with hentai from popular artists so often, but I still wonder what the draw is for the other ones..
So the only way to play that arcade is to go to Japan where the arcade machine is located
There are roads which must not be followed, armies which must not be attacked, games which must not be played.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you slap cute anime girls onto collectable cards, you will make millions.”
