Sounds interesting. It certainly has my attention. I loved Rainbow Moon.

Sweet!  I've been wondering when they were going to make a sequel to Rainbow Moon!  Can't wait!

[BeautifulTorment]

If they keep the same, reasonable price point as Rainbow Moon, I will be all over this on release.

They just released a trailer couple of days ago, looks like it's been pushed back to 2015 now. I still need to get back to Rainbow Moon but even so I'm sure I'll get this at some point.

Hopefully by the time the release of the game I will have completed Rainbow Moon,    even though my backlog will be ever growing in time.

There's still not a confirmed release date, but I thought I would include the new website here.

*I didn't want to create a new forum post on Vita and PS3's unreleased games forums yet, especially since there hasn't been any new news.

I just saw this on their website so I figured that I would share it here. It looks like we still have a while to wait, but I figured that the delays were caused by the development of a PS4 version.

After listening to a lot of fan feedback, we are happy to announce that Rainbow Skies is now also in development for the PlayStation 4. We plan to release Rainbow Skies with Cross-Save support for all current PlayStation platforms (PS4, PS3, PS Vita) in the second half of 2016.

For those of you who missed out on our previous game, we are pleased to confirm that we will also be re-releasing Rainbow Moon on PS4 sometime in 2016.





We know that a lot of our fans are eagerly awaiting news on Rainbow Skies, so we would like to give you an insight into some of the progress to the story system we have made in recent months.

Rainbow Skies has an increased emphasis on storytelling, writing, character backgrounds and acting, so players can expect a more interesting and well-crafted plot that features many twists and turns along the way. The complex background story consists of multiple, interwoven narratives, told through easy to read dialogs that are entertaining and, in the case of certain character, extremely funny.

Along with enlisting the help of a dedicated story and script writer, the original monolog system from Rainbow Moon has been replaced by a more complex dialog system. Up to four characters can speak simultaneously which leads to much more lively conversations. We have also implemented numerous new animations, emoticons and conversation specific icons that help convey the feelings and moods that our heroes undergo during their journey. Trust us, they'll be very emotional! :-)





We have also created several short cut scenes, we call "action clips", which are played when players reach certain check points in the story that focus on specific actions, characters or objects. Action clips don't contain text or conversations, but they do help in explaining the current situation, introduce new game elements or simply act as a way to spice up in game events.

After releasing Rainbow Moon we received a lot of feedback that players wanted an increased emphasis on storytelling and we believe that players will be pleased with the new story system in Rainbow Skies. For those of you that prefer to focus on the gameplay, rest assured all conversations can be skipped at anytime. A detailed log system keeps track of every single mission and sub-task, including a short reminder about your next objective so you don't have to worry about missing any vital information or events. This makes it very easy to pick up where you left off, even after taking a longer break from the game.





We would love to post more updates in the near future, but for now we are back off to continue working on Rainbow Skies, and hope that many of you will be excited to play it in 2016.

Interesting o: the story seems much more human this time around. characters look cool too

A while ago I talked with some of the devs I think. They're redoing a lot of things, like the quest system. The old quest system was very basic, and the new one will be more comprehensive I think. You will be able to "tame"/"capture" monsters or whatever. I'm pretty sure the same composer will also be working on the soundtrack, but also at least one other person (I think).

hmm new release date is 2nd half 2016 - http://www.rainbow-skies.com/news_22_ps4-version-of-rainbow-skies-confimed.html

For games like this that keep pushing back release dates, there is no credibility in any announcements for release dates. At this point, I'll believe it when it's available.
