About
Denpa Men, a mysterious creature that floats around radio waves. Form a party with them and go on an adventure !
"THE NEW DENPA MEN" is a free-to-play, consumer-operated RPG in which you catch the mysterious creatures "Denpa Men" that fly around you, make them your companions, and go on an adventure.
■ What are Denpa Men?
Denpa Men are mysterious creatures born from the radio waves that fly around you.
Each radio wave carries different information, so each Denpa Men is unique (one of a kind).
You can't find them with the naked eye, but you can find and catch them using THE NEW DENPA MEN.
THE NEW DENPA MEN is an RPG in which you make them your companions and go on an adventure.
■ Let's go on an adventure
Add the Denpa Men you want to go on an adventure with to your party.
Each Denpa Men has its own characteristics, and each stage you adventure on has its own characteristics, so we recommend that you form a party that suits the stage.
In addition to the main stage that you can enjoy at any time, there are also event stages that are open for a limited time and extra stages that open when certain conditions are met.
You may find treasure chests and secret passages during your adventure.
Monsters await you inside the stages.
Battles are quick and easy with simple controls (you can also give individual instructions).
■ There are many other elements besides adventure
In addition to RPG elements such as adventure and character development, there is also a wide range of content, including decoration elements for your own island and the island, fishing, battles with other players' parties, "Together Catch" with up to four players playing nearby, and "Voucher Collection" to collect "Vouchers" dropped by monsters at the end of battle.

The New Denpa Men is pretty firmly in the middle of the pack when it comes to Switch's freemium games. Simple, approachable gameplay makes it a great light JRPG for anyone looking for a basic introduction to the genre but, unsurprisingly, it scarcely holds a candle to classically designed games such as Octopath Traveler 2 or Dragon Quest XI. And though the microtransactions and freemium elements don’t get too in the way of progressing the story, they are nonetheless a persistent annoyance that can drag the overall experience down. Still, it costs you nothing but time to give this one a shot and, despite the drawbacks, this is still a fun little RPG that you may find yourself coming back to more than you’d think. If you give it a try and if you’re not too impressed, there’s a staggering number of excellent RPGs on Switch to play instead.

The New Denpa Men is an odd Turn-Based Monster-Collecting RPG, where the “monsters” you’re collecting are little floating multicolored bodysuit-wearing men hanging out around real-world Wi-Fi hotspots. This entry takes the series to free-to-play, and in some ways it’s the best entry yet in the franchise, but it’s really dragged down by the requirement to always be online while playing, and the addition of microtransactions in an otherwise family-friendly game is pretty disgusting too.
