Sgt. Frog procures an RPG from Namco Bandai photo

The paperwork finally went through, and the patriotic soldiers starring in the Sgt. Frog manga and anime getting the RPG-adaptation supplies that they've desperately clamored for.

Entitled Keroro RPG: The Knight, the Warrior and the Legendary Pirate, the DS cartridge contains official records of the platoon's mission into the RPG dimension as they attempt to stem an invasion by virtual creatures into the real world. The header image is actually some early concept art for the adapted character designs* 

The platoon will use combat system designed by elite engineers at  Namco Bandai's own flagship Tales studio, whose Sgt. Frog fandom is well known.Tales of Vesperia contained a special Sgt. Frog  costume pack that replaced an NPC's appearance, combat animations and sound files almost entirely.

Check out the game trailer below.

*Not really.

Gawd, I love me some Sgt. Frog. As much as I love the Tales of combat system, I could never stand the stories- hopefully this will just the thing to keep me sucked in. Any word about this coming to the US yet?

It is actually made by one of the Tales teams and features the same battle system.

Also in Tales of Vesperia the costume was for Karol, who is a playable character and not a NPC.

@ParaParaKing - I was totally about to say that.

You could switch which character you controlled in battle by switching from auto to manual control.

Looks okay, though a little more gameplay would be nice.

Yeah, yeah the game looks neat, but where in the name of Bright Noa did you get that header image, Josh? It is rad as hell.

I just want to see more episodes released in America. The dub is pretty good so far.

I have a dozen volumes of the manga and I have no idea why. I love the characters but the actual plot isn't very entertaining.

I might have to pass on this, if it ever makes it over seas.

I didn't like the Sgt. Frog manga, but hopefully this RPG will be better. :O)
