Princess Connect Re:Dive
 

Yesterday January 18th Crunchyroll launched the global server of the game.
So far I see no issues.

Who is playing it?

I'm playing JP, no intention moving to GL.

:D

Not playing so far. Do you think I should I and why?

Anyone else not have any sounds? My iPad doesn’t seem to have any even though I download the voices...

Separate global server and not an English option on the existing server? Hard pass. It's too easy for companies to jettison the English release after milking it for a while.

Depend, the game is only out for like days,not counting the soft launch, so problem isn't going to crop up now. Seasonal events, limited chars release is around the time that problem generally appear.

And I'm at max in JP so I don't really need a GL, probably will try to see some events that I skip though, and my English is way better than my Japanese anyway so try out to read story at most for me, though I already read it quite far in Jp already.

CMIIW KMR already explained that English option would bring licensing issue (animation part, OST, VAs), aside of that Cygames themselves unsure how it will perform in western market due to classic sim-date VN format that is Priconne strong point in Asian market; not so different from IMAS.

So Cygames can only accepted the global deal if there's another party that willing to handle all of it including the risks.

So the EN server is getting shut down. More info here. A real bummer for fans of this game who put lots of time and effort into the EN server.

Judging by the January and February charts, while game is still big in Japan, it made quite little money on EN server, so no wonder. Was it just not popular enough on the West, or was CR bad at promoting it is a question, but we got what we got.
