DotEMU, the guys and gals that release older games for Android that fared well in arcades (such as Double Dragon, King of Fighters, Metal Slug, and more) have announced that they have been sold and the founders will establish a new publishing company, called Playdigious.
DotEmu and Pastagames have announced today that their next project is bringing the retro game Pang Adventures to console, PC, and mobile soon. In fact both companies are already well underway with the porting of Pang Adventures. Have no idea what Pang Adventures is? You probably know it by its other North American name which is Buster Bros.
Double Dragon is a classic arcade and go!e console game from the late 1980s, and into the 1990s. It was a great game and franchise in its time, popularizing the venerated Beat ‘Em Up genre. The success of franchise spawned several releases over different platforms. The original arcade game, and its first two arcade sequels was ported over to Android, and released by DotEmu, as a single collection. As such, this review will cover this trilogy.
DotEmu had two big announcements to share at E3 2015, the first being Titan Quest, and the second being the company expanding the Ys Chronicles series on Android with Ys Chronicles II. The first installment into the series arrived onto Android back in April of this year, which means if all goes well, we will have two Ys Chronicles games to play through in one year.
DotEmu has unveiled two rather awesome titles that they will be bringing to Android soon while at E3 2015. The first of these games is Titan Quest, which is a classic hack n’ slash RPG originally released onto PC back in 2006. This new mobile port will feature all of the content from the original title, as well as the visuals remaining the same as the PC release.
Crazy news this morning for fans of old school RPG series, DotEmu has announced that they will be bringing the Ys Chronicles to Android in the near future… well the first game at least. For those of you not familiar with this franchise, Ys is a JRPG franchise that originally released in North America in 1990 under the slightly different name Ys Book I & II. However Ys Chronicles was a remake of those games, with a bunch of enhancements and packed together, before being released in the early 2000s for PC and the PSP which is where it gained a lot of popularity, not that it wasn’t popular back in the early 1990s.
