Earlier this week, publisher Compile Heart and developer Sting revealed Dokapon Kingdom: Connect in Japan – a Switch revival of the original Wii/PS2 hybrid board game. Well, it looks like western fans will thankfully be able to enjoy the new game too!

Idea Factory International has confirmed that it will be handling the game’s western release for Nintendo Switch in Spring 2023. On top of this, the publisher confirmed that a physical release is in the works for both North America and Europe as pictured above.

Check out the official English announcement trailer with more details below:

Everyone in Dokapon Kingdom loves money.

One day in this peaceful land, monsters suddenly appeared and began attacking nearby towns. The economy collapsed, and people were at their lowest. Taxes were no longer being paid, of course.

So that’s when the King took action!

He decided to gather the bravest warriors to rescue these towns so he can get paid! In exchange, the one who collects the most shall be rewarded with the Princess’ hand in marriage and the throne.

And thus, an adventure for money begins, where absolutely anything goes!
