#SEGAnews Wonder Boy Asha in Monster World

And the best new announcement in recent age is....

 (Well.. since the new Alex Kidd, at least, for me..)

 The Wonder Boy/Monster World series has known a strange revival of sorts. With all sorts of spiritual sequels (Cursed Kingdom), specific sequels (Wonder Boy Returns) and revivals, with the original producers more or less on board (Dragon's Trap remake). And everything inbetween (Aggelos)

But really it was always the case with this strange Sega series and its offshoots at Hudson Soft (Adventure Island series, all the PC Engine adaptations..) 

And now it's the turn of Monster World 4 to receive an enhanced remake/direct sequel in the form of Wonder Boy Asha in Monster World.

 


All we know so far it's that it's coming spring 2021 on PS4 and Switch. It will enhance and expand on MW4 with 3D visuals, new voice acting, modes and more. And it is the closes to an actual new installement, since this one will be coming from Westone, with the reutrn of Shinichi Sakamoto on the music and Maki Ozora on the character designs.

And this just became one of the most anticipated new games in ages for me!
