According to the associated Press release, this is a remaster of a 1998 game, and a PC port of the Japan-only Switch remaster that released in August 2024. Hopefully that version also gets localized, though I suspect it's waiting for a certain console successor's announcement first. Regardless, this is fantastic news. I'm glad this franchise is consistently active again, it's something special.
"Dokapon Kingdom. A game full of RNG and suffering that makes playing Mario Party feel like an act of mercy, has a story mode. An infamously long, incredibly expansive, and unsurprisingly toxic, story mode. With my love growing for this game growing bigger with every new quest I embark on, it was destined for me and my friends to experience Dokapon's greatest adventure. Laughs will be shared, blood will be spilt, and the next king of Dokapon Kingdom with eventually be crowned." -Vernias or someone
Don't forget the Party Crashers. I can see Vernias begging Nick, Brent, and Sophist to play this game with him. Vernias: Please please please please please!
@jhonatanhonorato3564 ah! Those are the feelings when one plays a game such as Dokapon Kingdom! But what does knot mean in this context? Like, a knot in one's stomach?
@@NervousFleai had an computer player get all the good roll in single game,meet alien,got good stat boost,meet blacksmith,get legendary weapon,steamroll all of us and even managed to evade computer with devil deal lol
Here's hoping that this is as good as Dokapon Kingdom and more! A lot of people are excited to see popular groups play this, but I'm excited to just simply play this with my friends, or soon-to-be ex-friends? But most importantly, it came to a big surprise that an official English version of this game is in works today! I hope Sting does this a lot more with the other Dokapon games, because I'd want to play them just as much as this one!
This is cool, but I hope we can get a brand new Dokapon game eventually. One with lots of new classes and events, multiple boards (or one that is procedural to some extent), etc. Could even do a single player roguelike mode of some kind for shorter play sessions. A brand new one could also update the game post release with more content, allowing it to stay fresh over a longer period of time. I think a game like that could do really well on PC.
Well I got some good news then. It is already out... in Japan. It seems to have been released in June last year on Switch in Japan so hopefully we can get a translated version when the PC port comes out.
Sophist: AND NOW, I ATTACK! Nick: NOOOOO! PLEASE! Vernias: LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU NUISANCE TO SOCIETY! *Two weeks later* Sophist: Noooooo, my power! Brent: Alright, guys, let's *POYO* him up!
@@Prophet_Of_Pants This series (the story modes in particular) are notorious for being "friendship destroyers" even worse than Mario Party. Story mode can last ridiculously long depending on how many players you have and how long said players spend sabotaging each other. We're talking potentially MONTHS for one playthrough of story mode if you factor in breaks between play sessions. Considering that the game actively encourages players to screw with each other and get advantage by any means necessary, the potential salt from a single game of Dokapon is unparalleled.
Interesting design choice. Looks older than previous games, but it does seems like everything that this series has needed to rival its entry on the Wii outside of Japan.
Nice. I kind of hope they remake the other old JP exclusive ones for english as well but all of them is really similar to the point you really only need one to end your friendships. A second one is redundant since you have no friends left to play with.
I'm still bummed they took out the rename punishment. In the original games includong the Wii/PS2 version you input any name you wanted rather than just a random assortment of stupid unfunny ones Watched the Japanese RUclips 2Bro play this last year, pretty sure it is the same as the Kingdoms re-release so still no renaming punishment
Ok, but the real quesiton is: can you change your friend's name as prank to any name you type? Because Dokapon Kingdom Connect! removed that feature, and that's a real bummer.
I love how many comments just scream GET WOOLIE! Also how multiple John/Jon's have been mentioned and no one knows if someone is talking about EyepatchWolf or ProtonJon (people misspell John/Jon all the time). I didn't even know ProtonJon was playing, so I assumed everyone was talking EPW.
ProtonJon, NintendoCapriSun and Chuggaaconroy did a SUPER long campaign of Dokapon Kingdom that took four years to beat on their collab channel, The Runaway Guys. The playthrough contains: Hilarity, Hans the Arm Dealer, and a ton of rage.
My friends on discord blocked one another for a week.
Can't wait for them to do it again after playing this.
1 person is guaranteed to slam their desk at the beginning
and all 4 are guaranteed to slam it at the last month

Oh, that explains why the characters look so odd, it's the 90s. Dokapon Kingdom had a more pleasing and coherent aesthetic, at least for me.
"of Fury" is the perfect4 way to describe anything Dokapon.
Well, it appears that TRG has a new series to go through!
Nobody tell John
Somebody call Vernias
Somebody call Woolie
Lol my thoughts exactly. I only seen gameplay of Dokapon with Woolies videos.
In my case, somebody call John.
@@alexandreturcotte6411 quick get Foxcade and Super Eyepatch Wolf on the job ASAP also Woolie might have played this game before
Minh and Reggie are already getting ready!
Hoes mad x1000
The party crashers have got to see this
Was looking for this comment
Vernias: "Yippee!"
Brent, Eevee, Nick: "No! Not again!"
Eevee: I CAST THUNDER SPELL!
got your right I need them to play this!
idk much about this game/series but i'm already imagining the amount bullying lmao
Vernias gonna be happy, just like when he plays Return of Dreamland happy :)
What a time to be alive, dokapon went from being dead to coming back twice, man I love this series
Twice?
Dokapon Kingdom was a
PS2
Game.
The PS2 was 2-3 console generations ago. That's almost 20 years.
We're old now. Let the midlife crisis flow through you.
@@Tolinar what I mean is we got this game and the new switch game few months ago
@@karnas1mp new Switch game? What are you talking about?
@@djcrimsonsunbird3607 didn't they have a new dokapon kingdom game on switch? Dokapon kingdom connect
I like that most of top comments are talking about different collab channels that have played kingdom
Coordinating friends for multiple sessions or one massive session is hard, sadly.

"And I'm sure a subscribe button will be clicked along the way. Haha, teehee!"
It indeed was Vernias. Wonder if he'll play with another group, since the other Party Crashers unfortunately have different thoughts on Dokapon.
@@ziggynewton510 This is an important time to bring up sidequest
Let us not forget it will be censored. Even mario and peach shown their belly in Mario odyssey and mario soccer game.
@ But how MUCH
"DON'T SERVE THE DEVIL!" - Pokemon Vietnamese Crystal
"Nah, Imma do it anyway" - Last Place Players in Dokapon
Sometimes even when one has zero chance of winning, They'll still make a deal w/ the Devil out of spite cuz' "Might as Well"
Can't wait for this game and more Jon rage if TRG do this game.
I can't wait for Woolie Vs to play this
I can't wait for super eyepatchwolf to play this
Amen...though let's be honest they may not want to go through a LOONG game like this again....ether way.
Don't forget the Party Crashers. I can see Vernias begging Nick, Brent, and Sophist to play this game with him.
Vernias: Please please please please please!
"5x works great *online* "
sold!
Literally just finished watching Vernias and friends finish their playthrough of Dokapon Kingdom and this drops? Must be a sign
"We're having a robbery sale!"
"Everything is free! If you're good at roshambo!"
You want rob me!? I told you we are having a sale. Why would you do it when we are having a sale? You're already getting a discount.
Do you know how much money I had to cut off to do this sale? my wife is on me right now she keeps yelling at me because i keep giving away stuff.

What is the D.O.K.A.P.O.N system? Or is that a subtle reference to the hit TV show "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"?

Fungalore!
TRG ITS TIME TO RUN IT BACK!!!
Oh man, can't wait to see the arguments Emile and Jon will get into with this as well as my own madness playing this!
Generally speaking it takes the length of one (1) Dokapon game, for the next game to come out
This is cool, but I hope we can get a brand new Dokapon game eventually.
One with lots of new classes and events, multiple boards (or one that is procedural to some extent), etc. Could even do a single player roguelike mode of some kind for shorter play sessions. A brand new one could also update the game post release with more content, allowing it to stay fresh over a longer period of time.
I think a game like that could do really well on PC.
Finally; it's beautiful..
Welcome back, DOKAPON!
Can't wait to see super HoboCrawfish play this.
The Return of Bobby Kotick: Knife-Procurement Edition
It's times like this where I am glad that I don't have friendships to ruin.
For context, this is an official localization of the PSX game, which for the longest time was Japan only
Ah. That explanes the graphics and voice clips. I thought it was a enhanced snes game.
A little part of me wished we could get a remake of the dokapon monster hunter game
"Now available on steam" is a strange way to spell "coming soon"....
Excited to try another dokapon game either way
DESTROYER OF FRIENDSHIP HAS RETURNED
Woolie is smirking
I guess besides the shown contents, there was more Dokapon inside *that* envelope.
Woolie knows only Envy and Suffering when this game's name is invoked
I can’t wait for this game to come to Nintendo Switch! ❤❤❤❤🎉
Well I got some good news then. It is already out... in Japan. It seems to have been released in June last year on Switch in Japan so hopefully we can get a translated version when the PC port comes out.
@ That’s awesome!
Getting this on PC.
Sword of Fury is an appropriate name because people will be stabbed IRL after playing this game

Ain't no way, more dokapan.
I can't wait to server my friendships against my homies again in full HD!
OMG SOMEBODY GET SUPER EYEPATCH WOLF RIGHT NOW
Never heard of this series before but this looks like a lot of fun!
Might have to get it to play with my roommates!

@ that sounds glorious! I need to play this now.
Looks great, the classic option is always a nice option in case you prefer the older style.
That weekly match thing is actually brilliant.
Oh no, it has Online Multiplayer! If that combines with Local, WoolieVersus Wolves (all 4) is all but inevitable!
Played Dokapon Kingdom and loved ruining my friendships!
Now to do it all over again! :D
one of my childhood's friendship tester coming to Steam
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of friendships suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
Time to watch Eyepatch Wolf lose his mind again
VERNIAS, THE NEW DOKAPON GAME IS COMING!!!
Interesting design choice. Looks older than previous games, but it does seems like everything that this series has needed to rival its entry on the Wii outside of Japan.
Yoooo!!!!!
Only waited my entire life for this!
They didn't have to VA too. But I also hope we can choose the JP voices : )
Dokapon! The one party game that makes Super Mario Party look like a casual board game night while your friends label you as a terrorist!
You can't just shadowdrop peak like this
Prepare for more friendships to end.
Thank *god* for additional music. The main themes definitely get old in 30+ hour games.
A great evil has reawakened
Woolie and John in SHAMBLES
DUDE HELL YES. OMFG YES.
First time I see a game suggesting making a pact with the devil as a comeback mechanic
Omg, it's happening 🎉
Nice. I kind of hope they remake the other old JP exclusive ones for english as well but all of them is really similar to the point you really only need one to end your friendships.
A second one is redundant since you have no friends left to play with.

Please give us a physical release on Switch!
Dokapon is dedication
Hey, Jon? Emile? Tim?
Remember your huge Dokapon playthrough?
Remember how long it took to get through that game?
...Wanna do a sequel?
Idea Factory are back. I'll let you decide if it's good or bad news.
5x speed sounds like a godsend for this series. I tried playing the Wii one in the past and it was insufferable
Oh Veeernias!
If it just like DOKAPON Kingdom Connect that was released in the west, it will be heavily censored.
Dokapon return ❤❤
i love that this series is finally getting some love again, but, uh, can we get a NEW one for once 😅
Oh noooo, I remember the horrors(the fun ones) of Dokapon Kingdom
The party cashers have to see this
Someone call the Party Crashers
Toxic Sunday just got longer
AMAZING
Hopeful the Party Crashers see this, might even be more fair then Kingdom
LETS GOOOOO
Thank mew!
This looks like a fun quirky version of mary party. Count me in for a good time though. :D
Ruining friendships on Switch was not enough, huh?
holy shit powerful game
Everyone tell The Runaway Guys about this quick
You know, I was just thinking about how some of the people I associate with were getting a little too familiar...
Still looking to get my hands on the DS Game. But it is so damn Rare and expensive
You what? No way lol
I wonder if the Party Crashers plan on playing this.
Finally I can ruin my friendship again.
Ok, but the real quesiton is: can you change your friend's name as prank to any name you type? Because Dokapon Kingdom Connect! removed that feature, and that's a real bummer.
Toxic Saturday just became even more toxic
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO
Can't wait for Super HoboCrawfish to play this, ah another year-long saga on the horizon...
Do you think the Quarter Guy and Flamicon saw this?
Someone send this to Vern
Oh god it’s the true friendship ender game. Mario party has nothing on this XD.
Versus Wolves Ultimate Showdown is here
I think you mean WoolieVersus Wolves. It would be all 4 players, Reggie and Mihn included; Mihn IS the current Dokage after all.
