It's all part of the hype machine. Why tell her to stop when all it does is bring more hype and attention to the Direct?

I guess its true. I just find really funny that one of the most reliable pieces of info we can get regarding announcements is she rt something.

Dark Cloud · Sep 3, 2019

Man wtf y'all asking for a Xenoblade Chronicles X port when Monolith Soft is going to show off a new IP?!!!?

sanstesy · Sep 3, 2019

Taura is just a fan.

Soraya only retweeting Directs with a Monolith Soft title is a consistent pattern since 2013. We'll at the least get a port of XC/XCX.

Possibilites for MonolithSoft related news on the Direct:

-Elma for Smash! (sadly won't happen, probably if we see the DLC pattern but one can dream right?).

-Xenoblade X remaster/expanded! (I know Takahashi said once it was difficult because financial issues, but he also said he wants to do it. Often, when he says he'd love to do some, he's already doing it. Maybe with port-studio aid).

-Xenoblade 1 eShop shadowdrop.

-Secret "medieval" game hinted around two years ago! (some people believe this is now an original Zelda game but I'm not sure. Could be an experiment similar to Disaster because they said this project would be different to the usual kind of games they make).

-A teaser for the next Production 1 team, aka next Xenoblade. X-2 or 3, or something completely different.

-Just new information about Breath of the Wild 2 and because MS is co-developing, Soraya RTd.

OMG I forgot:

-Xenosaga HD trilogy, Baten Kaitos Collection, Soma Bringer remaster, Xenogears remake lol...

You forgot Rex for Smash could be another possibility.

Note that, while it doesn't affect the pattern, of the Nintendo-era Monolith Soft games Soraya Saga was only involved in Soma Bringer and XC2, not XC nor XCX.

Dark Cloud · Sep 3, 2019

Okg where going to see Monoliths Action RPG IP. I was saying since last year the earliest they would reveal it was in a September 2019 Direct and here we are.

Tonswelt · Sep 3, 2019

oh no, Mystery Game #4 is Xenoblade Warriors

Mediking · Sep 3, 2019

LET'S GOOOO!!! SWITCH HYPE SQUAD! WHERE Y'ALL AT?

Xavi · Sep 3, 2019

Thanks for the replies! Holy shit, I'm hyped now! Xenoblade hyyyyyyype

Could be Bayo 3, could also be a reminder that Astral Chain is out and they could be hyping some kind of upcoming patch or dlc.

Naga said:
For Taura, I can see Nintendo just reminding that Astral Chain just came out. Maybe a patch or something.

If I recall, Platinum said they weren't working on any post-game content for Astral Chain. The last time Taura retweeted a Nintendo Direct, we got Astral Chain's announcement.

Ravager777 · Sep 3, 2019

Okay, so Mystery title #4 may be a monolithsoft title?

Takahisa Taura also retweeted the direct, not sure if it means there is Platinum stuff though.

I could see this being some sort of Astral Chain post-launch update.

Monolithsoft confirm

And this I could see being a Xenoblade Chronicles X port. I imagine it's still pretty early for them to reveal what their new IP is.

Moist_Owlet · Sep 3, 2019

It's a travesty that smash has 100 anime sword characters and only 2 kongs

I thought Mystery game 4 was not a big game?

alexi52 · Sep 3, 2019

We could also probably be getting a Xenoblade Masou game

I'm liking this thread a lot lmfao

Or like, maybe some more news about Bayonetta 3. Where is that game?

Soap · Sep 3, 2019

40 minutes seems like a long time to talk about animal crossing, Pokemon and luigi's mansion. SNES games is my prediction but not many big game announcements.

That artwork has nothing to do with Monolith Soft's medieval action game. That was just generic artwork for hiring vs the known female knight artwork that is shown a lot

No. Monolith Soft works on big titles.

HYPE FOR MONOLITH

I'VE BEEN WAITING 2 YEARS FOR THAT NEW IP

WestEgg · Sep 3, 2019

What if it's Donkey Kong Country Returns 3.... developed by Monolithsoft?

I am just curious, but what would be an interesting character to you?

Quite a few. As far as semi-realistic choices go there's Elma, Rex, Ashley, Amaterasu, Phoenix Wright, Lloyd Irving, a Sakura Wars character, and Crash off the top of my head.

At this point I'd settle for a female character (as the default, not an alt).

Maybe we'll finally see Bayonetta 3? Or a W101 port.

I hope it's that action rpg that people speculated about. If it's Xenoblade related can't say I'll be excited for it after XC2.

X and Xenoblade 1 are another league.
Blade 2 was just a meh game that some people love some people hate.
So just hope it's nothing like 2 and we're fine.

Dark Cloud · Sep 3, 2019

I'm ready!!!

alexi52 · Sep 3, 2019

Monolith Soft already stated they're working a new Xenoblade, a new IP, and BOTW 2, they're not going to be working on anything else

Mega Man Legends 3 is at our fingertips.

"That won't stop me IM GETTIN HYPED!"

Neil98 · Sep 3, 2019

Layton series, Nvidia Shield Wii ports and Nier Automata. Add in Xenoblade X, Mario Odyssey 2, Pikmin 3, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Town and 3D World and we good. Also DLC for Mahvel, FETH and Mario Maker 2.

BGBW · Sep 3, 2019

I'm predicting Love Plus x Xenoblade 2. It's the crossover we deserve.

Damn, what game is this from? It looks gorgeous.

BZL8 · Sep 3, 2019

So Soraya Saga (Monolith Soft) and Takahisa Taura (Platinum) have retweeted the direct so far. Any other prominent developers who have also retweeted the direct?

silby · Sep 3, 2019
