Bloody Roar (2012)

"This article is a Work In Progress."

Bloody Roar(2012 game) (Working Title: Bloody Roar Reboot) is the next installment in the Bloody Roar series developed by Raizing/8ing and published by an unknown company. It brings gamers back to the nostalgic days of beast duels. This game will be for the PS3, Xbox 360, PS VITA, Nintendo 3DS, and the Nintendo Wii U.

About The Game
This installment of Bloody Roar is a reboot of the series, after the letdown that was Bloody Roar 4, this installment will indeed clean the slate and start over again. Hudson Entertainment is about to go out of business real soon, so I need some ideas on publishing, I was thinking Namco... This game will retell the story seen in Bloody Roar 1, 2, and 3, along with some minor changes and new unique elements. The gameplay and presentation will be based on Bloody Roar 2, as many Bloody Roar fans think it is the best game in the entire series. Hopefully Raizing/8ing will go along with this idea and i'm sure it will be successful if it does.
