New game in the Gladiator Begins/Colosseum: Road to Freedom series announced! If you haven't played the two, you should. They're really fun action games that use the historical setting well.

I feel this is a huge problem with not having a common name in the title, but I am glad there's a new game hopefully they port it to the personal computer.

They at least have been releasing most of their games to PC, so I am not worried unless Sony pays them for exclusivity.

Now that the thread is actually posted and not erroring out, I can talk about the gameplay. Each body part has it's own HP and armor, and each button is mapped to an attack that, normally, attacks a different body part. Normally because facing and what the enemy is currently doing will change what it actually hits. It sounds simple, but it works really well in practice.

The two do have a shared name in Nippon. Problem is the western releases had different publishers.

I like how you tell us more about the games and give links to download them.
Oh wait.

God I hope they stay as far away from Clan of Champions as possible, including staying away from NISA.
Also they better let you still dual wield shields again. I beat Gladiator Begins with nothing but shields, it was quite the experience

That sounds great. I loved the one on the PSP. The roman setting is very underused in vidya.

Will it involve female gladiator fights? Of a lewd nature?
But seriously, how does it compare to say Shadow of Rome?

Nice, the first game has a kind of raw brutality that you rarely see in video games.

Neat. I looked at Gladiator Begins recently and it looks fun enough to emulate. From the way they spoke it seems like they're looking at more platforms than just PS5, and Octopath also released on steam. I hope that means we get a PC version.

I don't remember these even being the best gladiator games, only played the PSP and PC ones though. It's still nice to see more AA tier stuff coming out.

I remember Clan of Champions being even more bargain bin and meatless than the PSP one.

New info. Apparently it's a greatly expanded remake of Gladiator Begins set for release in 2020 and is titled "Gladiux" (why?). One of the biggest issues with Begins was Historical matches didn't have the scale they did in Road to Freedom, which should be fixed.
Pretty ballzy to show the end of the game as one of your first screenshots (the third image)
>Gladiux is co-developed by Acquire and a currently undisclosed non-Japanese studio.

Co-Dev is announced as… Starcaster Games? Never heard of them and they don't even have a Wikipedia page. Only things they've made are A.R.E.S. Extinction Agenda EX and So Many Me, neither of which I've heard of.
PC version is confirmed at least.

Oh, from what I've heard that's a studio filled with a shit ton of former ghost developers. So I guess Acquire will be doing all the design and decision making while Starcaster Games is gonna do the grunt work.

What's so hard about putting GAMEPLAY in your trailer about your VIDEO GAME
>Ares Extinction Agenda
I played it, it's a sub-par mega man clone with abilities, mouse aim and really good music. Game was really janky with one of the least satisfying dodges/dashes I've ever seen in a vidya.

I love how you could disarm people with their weapons, not other games have mechanics like that.
