Is Sol Trigger Imageepoch’s Next Self Published RPG?

By Spencer . November 9, 2011 . 1:30am

Is Sol Trigger Imageepochs Next Self Published RPG?Imageepoch announced big plans to push JRPGs forward with a slate of titles. Tale of the Last Promise and Black Rock Shooter, two self-published PSP games were released earlier this year in Japan.

 

The developer turned publisher said they would reveal four more titles in 2012. One of them is a "Type-Moon x Imageepoch project," which may have been revealed since Marvelous AQL announced Fate/Extra CCC. One of the other games may be Sol Trigger. Imageepoch filed a trademark for the term in Japan. Since they registered the name in English and Japanese, they may be hoping for an international release. NIS America already signed a deal to bring their games overseas starting with Black Rock Shooter.

 

I wonder which project Sol Trigger could be… is it an original simulation RPG, a game from a famous JRPG creator, or a classic series Imageepoch reinvented as a JRPG?

    “Type-Moon x Imageepoch project”

    Take my money

    just don’t let it be Fate/extra ccc cuz that will be kind of lame

    • Christopher Cates

      I’m really liking Fate/Extra and I really hope the sequel comes here as well.

    • Ladius

      Do you dislike Fate Extra? I have put only two hours in it so far, but it looks like a good game, especially from a narrative standpoint.

      Saber is in Fate/Extra. That is all.

    I really hoping their western publishing deal works out for both parties.  I’ve been a fan of imageepoch since Luminous Arc and its been nice to watch them grow from a small 3rd party developer into a larger, self-publishing one.

      I’m sorry if I’m off topic but , is this Imageepoch the same Epoch that make Doraemon game back in Psone era ?
      Anyway , if their games get translation I will gladly to play them :D

      • OneOkami

        No, imageepoch is a fairly young company started in 2004 with Luminous Arc (a DS game) being their first game.

        Some of their games have already been officially localized if you’re interested:

        Luminous Arc 1 & 2
        Sands of Destruction
        Fate/Extra
        Arc Rise Fantasia (Though be wary of the acting in this one, its horrible, but thats on the localization company, not imageepoch)

          I was hoping for Luminous Arc 3′s English release, considering how much 2 was improved. Way to let me down after I’ve prepared the joke for “Luminous Arc 5: Spleen”…

          As bad as the voice acting was, it didn’t stop me from beating ARF like 4 times. XD One of my favourite Wii games for sure!

    Man, it’s actually quite shocking to admit that I am such and Imageepoch fan, that I am actually excited about only knowing the possible name of the project.

    Soul Trigger would sound more awesome… Then again, this IS Japanese we’re talking about.

  • http://twitter.com/DanijoEX DanijoEX

    I would like to see how this will go. Their titles are really interesting.

  • Ladius

    ImageEpoch is on a roll lately :P I wonder if it will it be another PSP game or will they try out another hardware this time.

    • Joanna

      For the sake of an English release I hope it’s not a PSP title (or DS for that matter). It’s nice we’re getting BRS (even though I’m still on the fence with it seeing as I don’t collect figures and I’m not a BRS fan), but the chances are getting slimmer for each new title. ;___;

  • puchinri

    I’m kinda excited, kinda not about this. I like Imageepoch, but I haven’t cared for their projects much lately, and things have been iffy with me. But I do want to hear more about this~.

  • AzureNova

    Yes, yes, and yes! Black Rock Shooter and Tale of The Last Promise. I have the Japanese Black Rock Shooter Premium Box already, but I WILL be buying it again when they localize it. =^_^=

  • http://twitter.com/ShiningxWander Wander

    Ohh I can’t wait to hear more about this! Having played BRS: The Game and Fate/Extra I’m really enjoying Imageepoch games XD.

    Tales of the Last Promise was a big disappointment for me so this better be good

  • deathman00789

    UGH I still want Luminous Arc 3 & 7th Dragon (DS) in english
    but more games from imageepoch is great news.
