Missed this one earlier, but if anyone wants to check out a newer sample of Tierkreis' sound department, Miura put up a medley of samples for downloads from his blog a few days back at the URL below.

7-11's online shop features a different selection of bonus items (postcards, etc) for Suikoden Tierkreis preorders, so you might want to check them out if you want an alternative to Konamistyle's.

A friend of mine was having trouble with that file so I took the liberty to put it on youtube.

Famitsu scans featuring questionable looking characters from the Order of the One True Way, additions of Nimni and Kuga to the seemingly long list of anthropomorphic characters, and the debut of a usable-for-battles doctor (the first since the days of Liukan!) and his nurse assistant demonstrating the return of the support character system. And much more.

There are significant spoilers in this update. You have been warned.

Like before, Famitsu updates its website with a corresponding page for the recent coverage of Suikoden Tierkreis. At this URL: http://www.famitsu.com/game/coming/1219543_1407.html

Highlights:

- The discovery of "Shining Legacy" book by our heroes leads to an attack by the Order of the One True Way on Citro Village, which apparently doesn't subscribe to their teachings. That one in green is called Fargus (FAAGASU), and if you squint a bit in that same screenshot...

- With Janam Empire as an ally, the heroes move to lay a siege on Fortress of Raza, facing a difficult foe led by the horned Vazlov (VASUROFU). In need to take advantage of the surrounding watery terrains, they approach the Porpoise clan for an alliance; through Nimni (NIMUNI). The latter mentions others like Nemne (NEMUNE) and Nomno (NOMUNO), so I guess we now know who our next quintet will be... sorta.

- Deirdre (DIADORA) the librarian mentions a "ninth world"...?

- The last part of the page presents formal introduction of four characters: the aforementioned Nimni and Cougar, as well as the doctor-nurse duo Zafrar (ZAFURAA) and Eunice (YUUNISU) from Janam Empire.

End spoilerific update!

Famitsu and KonamiStyle have posted some information about the limited editions and an autographed script:
http://www.famitsu.com/game/news/1219732_1124.html
http://www.konamistyle.jp/sp/tierkreis/present.html

Also, the 96 page artbook that ships with the special edition is official called "The genuine bible of Gensosuikoden Tierkreis"
Here is an image that shows a sample of its content:

This is probably a spoiler, but I find it interesting that Liu has a previously unmentioned family name on his page...

I'm not too hot about the "genuine bible" title, but the layout is looking good. Hopefully the contents rival those of Suikoden V's LE artbook.

Japan games always tend to change the name of game titles & other things to suit Americans.

Lets see if it's still called The Genuine Bible

There is nothing that could rival Suikoden V's LE artbook (Japanese edition, of course). The content of Tierkreis' artbook might be in bar with those artbooks that get released after the game.

Next up, a sneak preview of the headquarters for Tierkreis' army and its "growth" features including the blacksmith and farm, Nemne's warm welcome to the Porpoise's room, as well as the introduction of a new character, Atori (ATORI), supposedly a "visiting" Tenkai Star from yet another world...

Heh, 100% agreed. Now, if only they didn't messed up with Skald Egan and Chisato's entries. But, I guess, this is at best still a spin-off title. Perhaps they'd leave the greater bonuses for main installments, like the up-and-coming Suikoden VI.


Edited: Reuploaded the scan to another host.

:( "NOT FOUND" on that last link.

I think I died a little.
