Images of Pre-order Guilmon for Digimon Survive, Update- Various Guilmon Detail

[MarcFBR]

With just a bit over 3 months until Digimon Survive is out, we knew Japan would get Guilmon as a pre-order bonus from a couple days ago.

We have an early photo of V-Jump showing off the pre-order Guilmon.

The Japanese Playstation blog also put up a basic preview article for the game that included a gameplay image. They describe it as a reliable ally for battle who can evolve into Dukemon.


At this time pre-order bonus' for outside of Japan aren't confirmed.

Update- The Digimon Survive website added a page regarding Guilmon, along with clean artwork and a larger version of the above screenshot.

​

It also includes various details regarding the pre-order Guilmon...

Passive skill of increasing fire attribute attack power
A versatile monster.
It has a long range fireball, and is easy to use. Like Agumon, it's versatile enough to handle various battles and it's resistance to each attribute is slightly high.

Guilmon is a 'free' monster, evolution requires evolution items that are gained via exploration and battle rewards. As a 'free' monster he will not deevolve once evolution has occured.

Guilmon can evolve into Growmon, MegaloGrowmon, then to Dukemon.




Digimon Survive is out July 28th in Japan and July 29th worldwide.

Digimon Survive can be pre-ordered at Amazon.com: (affiliate links)

it's hard not to love Guilmon. His design is so cool

 

[Noni]

This game has an interesting style for the battle sprites, where they look cuter but without going as far as a super-deformed or chibi style. I like it.

With Guilmon and Renamon confirmed i can assume Terriermon including his line will take spots in the roster of Digimon in the game if not i will be shocked.

Hopefully we get news of Fusion or Jorgess Digimon in the game.

 

[Sarabande__]

It must have impmon !!

Interesting that Ally digimon can also evolve in this game, I wonder what gates their forms if the normal partners seem to have story events holding their evolutions back. I guess they're probably gated to whatever the highest form your main partner can become is

Updated with additional details and images.

First Vamdemon now Dukemon. So the no humanoid digimon in the roster rumor has been lifted? I might be wrong on that.

 

[HeroWars]

Hopefully we get news of Fusion or Jorgess Digimon in the game.

Could we hope for new digimon in this game or not?

I can’t think of a Digimon game in the last several years that hasn’t introduced at least one new Digimon - although it usually is only one or two we get from console releases.
My advice is ‘hope for a new Digimon, but don’t bank on it’.

So does it only have one line because it's a preorder bonus and they didn't put all that much into it (not exactly abnormal) or is that how all the recruitable Digimon will be, I wonder.

They're gated to the items that allow them to evolve, apparently, so if those get held back until specific points then that'd be that.

So the no humanoid digimon in the roster rumor has been lifted?

They'd never make a game without at least almost all of the Digital Monster Ver 1 cast, and that had Devimon and Meramon, and they'll probably never make a game without Wargreymon and Omegamon, so that was always pretty unlikely.

Hopefully we get news of Fusion or Jorgess Digimon in the game.

At the very least, the final boss is always a new kind of Digital Lifeform, if not a Digimon.

Is this gonna be like you can get this way earlier than otherwise or literally 100% preorder exclusive cause that'd be super lame if latter

In Cyber Sleuth the Black Agumon and Gabumon lines were pre order only. Like, if you didn't pre order you didn't get them. Even years later people didn't get them cuz they didn't pre order. Hacker's Memory eventually added the pre order Sistermon to the PSN store but it did take a while to get on there. There were also some clothes and NX Digimon exclusive to the pre order and they were never released outside of pre order only the Sisters got added to the store meaning even HM still had exclusive pre order content locked behind pre ordering. If you bought Cyber Sleuth on PS4 right now, you would not have those Digimon.

So it'll most likely be a DLC only Digimon that either never gets released again like in CS, or gets added to the store months later. So if you plan to get the game in the first few months and really want the Guilmon line you should pre order.

the "Free" trait is pretty interesting (I thought it meant Attribute. I was like what, Guilmon isn't Virus?).
I hope that recruited digimon can stay their unevolved forms outside of battle. I'd imagine cutscenes would be more hard when you have to have a massive MetalGreymon in a room with the humans.
One thing that appeals to me about Survive over the Story games is the idea that digimon don't need to always be their evolved forms outside of battles. For example, I would have liked the idea of a Hagurumon following me around in Cyber Sleuth who becomes Machinedramon when in battles

Since every Digimon could become every Digimon in Cyber Sleuth that'd prob be too hard to pull off like, every Rookie in the game can become Machinedramon.

it's still possible, you would just choose a lower form from its evolutionary tree of a digimon you've previously owned before.
It's just purely an overworld visual, it doesn't even have to display as a lower form digimon when your view your party in the menu.
But I dunno, it's just something I would have found neat

The description of how Free digimon work makes me think the kids will be triggering these digimon natural evolution, so they are stuck in it.

don't want it that bad and don't wanna support that kinda practice, ntm intend to wait for reviews, if anything this makes me less incline to hurry to buy the game and support it despite having xenoblade III at same time
