SAND LAND, the new action-RPG from Bandai
SAND LAND is one of Bandai Namco's latest releases. This video game lets you play Beelzébub, a very mischievous demon prince. Accompanied by Thief, his chaperone by default, and the intrepid Sheriff Rao, the little rascal's mission is to find a gigantic and enigmatic source of water to save the population of the desert lands.
With a unique artistic style, which pays homage to the works of Akira Toriyama, Bandai Namco invites you to dive into nostalgia to test your agility and imagination to assemble tanks and other vehicles to navigate through this world.
A game validated by Akira Toriyama
Before being a game or even an anime, Sand Land is above all an adventure manga created from scratch by Akira Toriyama. This work is quite special, because unlike the other mangas he has released, Sand Land was entirely thought out and drawn by the mangaka. From the script to the drawing, no one has been able to get their hands on this creation.
During his lifetime, Akira Toriyama was able to follow the development of the game, and last January, he wanted to deliver a message to his community; except that illness came to compromise his plans. To celebrate the release of Sand Land on Xbox, PC and PlayStation, Genki_JPN wanted to make the words of the legendary mangaka heard one last time.
I haven't seen the full gameplay yet.
However, it significantly expands the manga's worldview with many exciting new elements. This is a high quality standalone game and I can say that it is a very satisfying action-RPG!
First of all, the graphics present a perfect balance between the atmosphere of the manga and its drawing style.
The performance is superb.
The game will definitely give you an exciting experience with a real sense of design and attention to detail, be it the many new vehicle designs, the various customizations, as well as the background design!
In the game there is not only the world of SAND LAND, but also a whole new world called FOREST LAND with new characters, which were not in the manga. By playing as Fiend Prince, you will be able to enjoy a deeper story and go on an adventure on a vast map.
Personally, I can only play games that are accessible to the general public, but I look at the trendy games that my family plays, and I think I know enough about them, even for an old man. I highly recommend the game “SAND LAND”!
Although the field of video games was not his favorite field, he was still interested in the industry to give some feedback on the adaptations of his works. Here, Akira Toriyama gives his blessing very clearly and invites players to join the crazy adventure of Beelzébub and his funny team.
Knowing all the efforts he made during the design of this paper work, his feedback had to be taken with great consideration.. So, we only have one thing to tell you: let yourself be carried away by the nostalgic world created by Akira Toriyama to show who is the most powerful demon and bring water back to the world!
