Keiji Inafune Launches RED ASH Kickstarter Campaign

Keiji Inafune Launches RED ASH Kickstarter Campaign - News

by Jared Katz , posted on 04 July 2015 / 4,443 Views

Yesterday we covered the news story of Keiji Inafune teasing a new project called RED ASH. Today RED ASH has been confirmed to be a game and Inafune has launched a Kickstarter campaign for the title.

Red Ash Concept

Unlike Mighty No.9, which is a spiritual successor to Mega Man, this game is a spiritual successor to Mega Man Legends.

The team for this project includes Art Director Kazushi Ito (Mega Man Legends, Ape Escape 3), Game Director Masahiro Yasuma (Mega Man Legends, The Misadventures of Tron Bonne), Lead Background Artist Miki Kijima (Mega Man Legends, Mega Man Battle Network), and Composer Manami Matsumae (Mega Man, Shovel Knight).

Red Ash Concept

The RED ASH Kickstarter needs to raise $800,000 to be successful (it's currently at $35,000+). This will fund the first three episodes of the game.

The team aims to release the game on PC (later stretch goals should include console ports) in the summer of 2017.

I'd rather see gameplay from the other kickstarted games first and see how those end up in comparison to how they are promised at the start.

So... what? Was Mighty No.9 dead on arrival then? Or what?

No, just at the end of development. Which means that those who have already finished their part in the project (like concept artists, for example) now need another one to keep them occupied

I adored the megaman legends games, but I so loathe kickstarter.

Best thing to happen to gaming is kickstarter.
