Earlier today, CoroCoro magazine uploaded a video for Yo-kai Watch 3: Sushi / Tempura on their YouTube channel. It features some gameplay footage, showcasing the brand new battle system of the game.
Here is what they wrote about:
Yo-kai Watch 3 will also introduce a brand new battle system, which works in a 3×3 grid. You send three Yo-kai in battle, and you move their medals around in order to make formations, evade enemy attacks, and more. This new battle system is quite different from the one found in the first two entries, but there’s one element that hasn’t changed: Soultimate moves are still there!
the Yo-kai will fight freely on their own, but you can also give them orders. You can move the medals on the bottom screen to move the Yo-kai to reposition them. This comes in handy when you want them next to another Yo-kai for benefits. You’ll also get to switch out Yo-kai from the ones that are on the bench.
Yo-kai Watch 3: Sushi & Tempura will release in Japan on July 16, 2016 for Nintendo 3DS.
Check out the Trailer:
“Also planned are new toys this fall, including the Yo-kai Watch Model Zero, a new series of collectible Yo-Motion Yo-kai Medals, plus custom Yo-kai Watch accessories, large plush toys and electronic figures. We’ll also be seeing the Yo-kai Watch Trading Card Game and the second series of the show on Disney XD. More details can be found after the break.”
Shadow of the Erdtree will launch on June 21
This was originally a requirement when the game first launched.
