Take Dokapon with you, thanks to Dokapon Journey

Atlus localized Dokapon Kingdom for the PS2 and Wii, so it shouldn’t really come as any surprise that its just announced the localization of Dokapon Journey for the DS. Sting’s RPG/board game hybrid once again has players fighting to dispatch monsters from Dokapon, with the chance to rule the kingdom, and Princess Penny, going to the winner. The only thing is, you’ll have to wait till April 14, 2009 to play it.

There are single and multiplayer modes. Alone, you have to go through the board game against computer controlled opponents. If the DS version is anything like the Wii incarnation, the AI will be borderline brutal. You can also play against up to three other friends, using either single card multiplayer or multi-card multiplayer. I’ve found Dokapon’s best played with friends though, so make sure you have friends with DS units before buying it.

The thing to remember in Dokapon games is to be ready to be brutal…
