Check the unveiled images here:
“CoroCoro has the genre listed as “RPG (Cross-media Project)” so that means we can expect to see a bunch more with Yo-kai Watch 4 as we’ve seen in previous entries of the series.
The magazine has some screenshots that we’ve yet to see, but Ryokutya describes it to have gorgeous graphics that might even look better than the first screenshots (one pictured above) that was shown before the original Yo-kai Watch’s platform was announced, which ultimately ended up being on 3DS.
The magazine describes Yo-kai Watch 4 as a grand journey that goes beyond the time and space of the world in which Natsume Amano, Keita Amano (Nathan Adams), and Shin Shimomachi live.”
