Arc System Works and publisher NeoPle announced a brand new fighting gameDungeon & Fighters (DNF) Duel, which is based off the popular online action RPGÂDungeon Fighter Online. Alongside the trailer, there’s also some commentary from Director Kodani on the upcoming title:
Considering how popularDungeon Fighter Onlineis, especially in Asia, it makes sense that the IP would branch out into other genres. Neither a release date nor platforms has been revealed as of yet, but I’m sure that information will be coming up in the future.
This isn’t Arc System Works first rodeo with a third party IP, as they also worked onGranblue Fantasy Versus. XSEED Games also revealed their partnership with Arc System Works for “ARCREVO America Online 2020,” an online tournament which featuredGranblue Fantasy: VersusandBlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle.
