Digimon Adventure: Digivice: Info, Images, and Pre-Order Details

[MarcFBR]

After a bit of a wait, and only a couple days before the show is back, we finally have details for the Digimon Adventure: Digivice:!


It's an adventure/quest based LCD toy, and let's have a look at what they are advertising it as having...

Point 1- New Design. This is Digivice:!

The design is refreshed. The contents of the LCD game has also been refreshed, try a new adventure!

Evolution sequences are reproduced with lights and sounds.

Point 2- The Chosen Children's colors are reproduced with LEDs and the partner Digimon can be friends!


Showing the full lineup now is interesting, especially one particular choice.

Point 3- Newly installed systems
Adventure is possible in all 11 areas of the quest system. Battle in all 11 areas with your partner Digimon.

Battle System- The Digivice: is equipped with a roulette input system that imitates the light ring on the digivice: itself. you can increase the attack power of your partner Digimon by stopping it at the correct time. Enjoy a thrilling battle!

New Partners- If you beat a specific area, you can have a new partner Digimon join you. Increase partner Digimon and advance!

They show off it lit up with all 8 colors. They note there are 8 LEDs included so it lights up properly.

Over 100 characters from Digimon Adventure: will appear in the Digital World of the Digivice:, which makes up 11 areas.

Pre-orders are open at Premium Bandai for 8,800 yen. Pre-orders close on July 31st, and they will ship in November.

Update- Pre-orders are open.
Update- Premium Bandai US is taking pre-orders.
Update- Initial pre-orders for November have been closed due to high demand. A second wave of pre-orders, to ship in December, can be found here. All other details are the same. This pre-order wave will end on August 1.



The Digivice: looks like a rather nice quest based LED toy. The mold looks quite nice, and it'll probably be a popular one with the connection to the show.

More details to come!

"Which makes up 11 areas"

Wonder if this is something the show would be at already, interesting
I really really like how the colours and LEDs look!! Wanna train a palmon
Ophanimon wins once more! Ive noticed how they havent really been hiding evolutions too much, which is fine, any other media would already "spoil" those anyhow
Was this the 23rd birthday news?

 

[Amandil7]

Ophanimon!!!! Yessss finally!

 

[Lee_Bug]

I'm not really into digivices, but I -do- find the shape of these new ones aesthetically-pleasing. The LEDs are also pretty rad!

 

[Muur]

So they're using Ophanimon but not Plesiomon.

RIP Magnadramon and RIP Plesiomon.

Also no Salamon lol

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Oh? So, in original Adventure, it's Holydramon. And for 2020 version, it's Ofanimon? So THIS WAR OF HOLYDRAMON/OFANIMON WILL END FOR SURE? Yeah?! Genius. It's like having Schrodinger's cat in parallel universe evo lines!

But I didn't expect Tailmon's evo got spoiled so early.

However... Awesome LED digivices. And improved 2D sprites by gained more block dots.

 

[CarlosMenem]

Looks awesome! Hope it has connectivity with the pendulum z. Also, i thought the chose Plesiomon as gomamon's ultimate, i'm not complaining but it's weird

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

So they're using Ophanimon but not Plesiomon.

RIP Magnamon and RIP Plesiomon.

Also no Salamon lol

? Magnamon?? Oh....!

Plotmon isn't there... I re-checked when you mentioned her. Shocked and saddened. Why Japan loves cats so much often than dogs.....

Maybe they could have "twin" Gomamon that can evolve to both Plesiomon and Vikemon.

But having Tailmon instead of Plotmon there... Is this first time Tailmon being treated as the "starter" instead? On Adult level? Or what?

 

[YongYoKyo]

However... Awesome LED digivices. And improved 2D sprites by gained more block dots.

For a Digivice, the sprites aren't improved. The Adventure Digivice toys, from the very first one in 1999, have always used 32x32 sprites. It's the non-Digivice V-Pets that use 16x16, and even then, several V-Pets have used 32x32 too.

 

[XDragon]

Oh man I am so excited for a proper digivice!

 

[TMS]

But having Tailmon instead of Plotmon there... Is this first time Tailmon being treated as the "starter" instead?

No. Plotmon wasn't playable in the original Digivice or the Adventure PSP game either.

 

[Salazarmon]

I’m new to the divice collection world, but not to the Digimon world. I’m just wondering if I get it would the game language be in Japanese?

 

[Digiforlife]

wow those digivice looks amazing with LED stuff added to it ! I would totally get those digivices just for it

 

[BlankShell]

Definitely excited for this one! Hopefully it gets a P-Bandai USA link, but an importer would be fine. No Salamon is a bit sad, but I'm not really miffed at Ophanimon, seemed pretty obvious with the story they're trying to tell. No Plesiomon is sad, but also something we already knew, so again not too surprising.

 

[Quinlan58]

Well, Ophanimon will now be canon for an Adventure anime. Not my favorite evolution for Tailmon but it does intrigue me that the Angels are now basically confirmed as being at the center of the plot.

Is 11 areas the standard number for digivice quests or is it only the case for this particular one?

 

[NatalieRath]

Question! Is there any way to fight each other?

 

[MarcFBR]

Updated the above, pre-orders are open.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

But having Tailmon instead of Plotmon there... Is this first time Tailmon being treated as the "starter" instead?

No. Plotmon wasn't playable in the original Digivice or the Adventure PSP game either.

Damn being Plotmon fan is suffering.

 

[totentanz]

It didn't specifically say but is it a pedometer device like before or is the adventure traveling aspect handled differently?

 

[TMS]

Is 11 areas the standard number for digivice quests or is it only the case for this particular one?

The original Digivices had seven areas each, the D-3s had three areas each, and the D-Arks had twelve areas each (some of them secret), or thirteen areas in the last one (many secret). It'll be interesting to see what the enemies/bosses are in this new device, since in the Digivice's and D-Ark's case they correspond (albeit imperfectly) to the villains of the anime.
