Suikoden spiritual successor ‘Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising’ heading to Xbox Game Pass

Back in 2020, a group of former Suikoden developers formed a new studio and kickstarted Eiyuden Chronicle, a new JRPG and spiritual successor to Suikoden. Following a successful campaign, the scope of the project expanded to include a smaller prequel game, which will now be releasing in May as a day-one Xbox Game Pass title. 

Today, Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising was announced to be releasing on the 10th of May across all the same platforms Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes will be available on – including PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch. In Xbox's case, Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising will also be coming to Xbox Game Pass on day-one.

This game will be a smaller RPG introducing players to the new world we'll be exploring further in the main game, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. Currently, that game is scheduled to release in 2023.
