Denpa Men RPG Relaunches on iOS & Android

• The New Denpa Men makes its triumphant return to mobile platforms
• This quirky creature-collecting RPG first won hearts on 3DS before transitioning to Switch
• With its upcoming mobile comeback, could we finally see a worldwide release?

Considering Nintendo's significant expansion into mobile gaming lately, it was inevitable that some Switch exclusives would migrate to smartphones. Few anticipated The New Denpa Men - that delightfully odd RPG - would lead the charge!

As reported by Gematsu's detailed coverage of Japanese releases, The New Denpa Men arrives on iOS and Android March 10th. Notably, this version maintains the original's innovative AR functionality through smartphone cameras - a groundbreaking feature when first introduced on 3DS.

Longtime fans may recall The Denpa Men as an early 3DS standout, blending AR technology with RPG mechanics. Players captured the titular radio wave creatures from real-world environments, then assembled teams to conquer dungeon challenges.

While not a flagship franchise like Mario, The Denpa Men has carved its niche across multiple Nintendo platforms. Developer Genius Sonority previously brought New Denpa Men to mobile before its Switch remaster, making this journey full circle.

We're potentially getting a mobile version of a Switch remaster that was originally a mobile game - delightfully meta! The Switch release broke regional barriers with its global launch, sparking hopes this mobile iteration might follow suit.
