Story

In 20XX, mankind left Earth leaving animals to fend for themselves. The once busy streets of Tokyo are now home to lions, tigers, chickens, and various other animals. All of them are now fighting for survival



Gameplay

In Story Mode, the player plays through missions centered around various animals. Eventually, the player will discover the truth behind mankind's disappearance. A Pomeranian dog and thoroughbred racehorse are key characters in the story.



In Survival Mode, the player takes control of an animal and fight for survival against other animals for as long as possible. Tokyo Jungle has online leaderboards so the players can compare their survival skills against one another. Smaller animals will fight in groups, and the player's group can win fights against larger animals by just having one of the group survives the fight.



The player will have to build up a pack of animals. This is easier for some plant eaters, which means the player may not necessarily be at a disadvantage even if a weaker type was chosen.

There are 50 breeds and 80 types of animals to be expected. Animals confirmed for Tokyo Jungle include lion, crocodile, tiger, giraffe, chimpanzee, hippo, cheetah, chimpanzee, gazelle, chicken, beagle, tyrannosaurus, hyena, and fox. As the player plays through the game, additional playable animals will be unlocked



Being Localised for PAL Terrotories end of 2012 - This game looks to be one of those quirky Japanese titles that I am just dying to play. Also, Notice the Velociraptorin the banner? Wonder why us humans had to leave earth and leave all the animals behind...

Well PAL confirmation:

This looks great, it reminds me of Impossible Creatures.

Latest trailer and Sept release date confirmed for westerners!

Same trailer as the Japanese launch one it appears except with a date for West (oh and english lol)

Think I will just wait until 2nd hand price is lower. Still expensive here.

@ sinn - only digital release for the west - dont think this title would fly off the shelves here... although it looks random awesome.

I saw JewWario's review of this, mmmm not really my cup of tea (mostly because of my double standard of being totally ok with slaughtering humans, undead & fantasy creatures/monsters or made up animals, but somehow freaked out if they're 'normal' animals XD) , but interesting idea

oh yeah true.

It would be way too niche... cost too much money for discs. Besides, the game only has 13 trophies (and not a platinum) so there is no way they are going to put this as a disc release. Actually, I was surprised it even got one in Japan tbqh

Tokyo Jungle Mobile is headed to PSM for the PSV.
It will be a strategy game similar to FF Tactics.
