Rabbit & Bear Studios have confirmed that a sequel to strategy RPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is being planned. The announcement was made in a pre-launch Reddit AMA.
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is a Kickstarter-funded RPG inspired by the popular Suikoden series by Konami, with Suikoden creator Yoshitaka Murayama at the helm. Murayama sadly passed away on February 6 from a chronic illness, but his legacy will shine through Eiyuden Chronicles: Hundred Heroes and the upcoming Suikoden remasters.
