Are you ready to lose your friends? While you might think I’m talking about a new Mario Party, instead we have the surprise announcement of Dokapon Kingdom: Connect! The RPG board game will pit you and your friends against each other to become the next ruler of Dokapon this spring.

Adventurers, watch the announcement trailer below!

Idea Factory International describes Dokapon Kingdom: Connect:

Everyone in Dokapon Kingdom loves money.

One day in this peaceful land, monsters suddenly appeared and began attacking nearby towns. The economy collapsed, and people were at their lowest. Taxes were no longer being paid, of course.

So that’s when the King took action!

He decided to gather the bravest warriors to rescue these towns so he can get paid! In exchange, the one who collects the most shall be rewarded with the Princess’ hand in marriage and the throne.

And thus, an adventure for money begins, where absolutely anything goes!
