Topic: Will we ever see another Ogre Battle?

Posts 1 to 20 of 21

The SNES and N64 Ogre Battles are two of my favourite games ever. Why has there never been another? (and I'm not talking about Tactics Ogre) Will there ever be another? Does anyone have any inside info? Did Japan ever get another one?

At least, does anyone know of games with similar mechanics?

There was a Tactics Ogre on the GBA and one on the PSP.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Matsuno was busy with FF Tactics, Vagrant Story and FFXII?

But now he's helping with the Tactics Ogre remake so there's a chance we may see a new Ogre Battle at some point.

Thanks Bass, but I had mentioned I wasn't looking for info on Tactics Ogre... there's a million games like that on the market!

So u herd of Tactics Ogre?

...lol

No news of any new Ogre Battle game in development, but I wouldn't rule it out. The series was pretty big in Japan so it'll probably happen eventually.

I still have yet to play Person of Lordly Caliber on VC. Backlog woes!

Theres a Neo Geo Pocket color game that plays more like the regular Ogre Battle games, but it's Japan-only. There's no news on a new one, though. If there was I'm sure a quick internet search could turn it.

There's one coming for WiiWare.

Also, Ogre Battle 63 1/3 is supposed to be coming to the VC sometime this year.

Okay. I thought that Tactics Ogre was a sequel to Ogre Battle and therefore similar.

I think he means gameplay style. Ogre Battle has a unique battle system, while Tactics Ogre's battle system is emulated in nearly every TRPG

Scared of the future, but bored with the past.

I don't think they'll make anymore Ogre Battle games since Tactics Ogre clones have been more popular. I'm hoping for an update or at least a re-release to Dragon Force. That game borrowed a ton of things from Ogre Battle and made some improvements too.

No.

I'm gone. Good f*cking bye.

It is a sequel, it's just not similar.

Thanks Gamesake. that's exactly the type of information I was looking for. Now if I only could rustle up a Saturn...

Tactics Ogre is essentially a totally different game series from Ogre Battle. TO wasn't the original tactical RPG so no tactical RPGs are "Tactics Ogre clones". Fire Emblem was the original. So TO is a FE clone. Give the original some credit will ya.
