There’s still quite a few fighting games trapped on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360-era hardware, but it seems we can cross one of them off the list soon.
Aquaplus along with publishers DMM Games and Shiravune announced today basically out of nowhere that Aquapazza: Aquaplus Dream Match is coming to PC via Steam.
The anime game crossover was first released all the way back in 2011 in Japanese arcades before being ported to the PS3 in 2012 and brought to the West in 2013.
Aquapazza combines with the worlds and characters of Utawarerumono, Tears to Tiara, To Heart, Kizuato, Routes, Comic Party and White Album properties.
Instead of a high-flying action anime fighter, Aquapazza is focused more around grounded gameplay and using your partner character to score big flashy hits — like running them over with a bicycle.
The game was originally developed by the now defunct Examu Inc., who also crafted Arcana Heart, Nitroplus Blasterz and Million Arthur: Arcana Blood.
There is no mention on the Steam page if the new Aquapazza release will include rollback netcode, but the original definitely did not.
No official release date has been set either, but we know the game is slated for a 2025 launch.
