Bandai Namco Entertainment announced the upcoming monster training simulation game ULTRA KAIJU MONSTER RANCHER will officially launch in North and South America on Nintendo Switch on October 20th, 2022, as a digital download. The game is an intersection of two renowned franchises – Ultraman, the multimedia icon and pop culture sensation, and Monster Rancher, a beloved game series celebrating its 25th anniversary that lets players collect unique monsters and train them for competition.
In ULTRA KAIJU MONSTER RANCHER, players take on the role of an up-and-coming rancher to breed, befriend, and train Ultra Kaiju for competition. The game features more than 200 kinds of Kaiju including combination variations to collect. Kaiju can be generated using Keywords or NFC-enabled devices*. Players can also combine or synthesize monsters to create all-new-looking Kaiju. In addition to unique movements from Ultra Kaiju not typically seen in past works, ULTRA KAIJU MONSTER RANCHER sets the stage for epic clashes of monstrous proportions reminiscent of classic Ultraman bouts.
