Yeah, I certainly wasn't expecting that scene to be used in the trailer of all things.

Stop! Cease and desist your lies! Please stop. Berserk is not resuming because berserk was never put on hiatus in July. Stop being brain dead. This is now article 4 claiming berserk was put on hiatus last July when it was not. .. September chapter release November chapter release December chapter release then they switched irregular saying summer resume... there has been a new chapter every other month on average since July. Berserk was never put on hiatus. Just please shut up and stop spreading false information. If you don't know anything about something don't write about it . Getting tired of you paid per article internet bloggers.

This could be fun if it's more like Ken's Rage and less like Pirate Warriors and Arslan Senki. I guess the first arc could be made into standard Musou, but the rest works the best like Ken's Rage.

I don't follow the Japanese release of Berserk, so I (and I assume many others, including the article writers) had no idea new chapters had recently been published, but regardless, a little digging would tell you that Miura himself did, in fact, announce Berserk would be going on hiatus again last December, with an estimation that the next chapter might be out by Summer 2016. And what did we get? The magazine making a big deal about it's "return" as a monthly series in June.

So come on, cut 'em a little slack. They got all this information about both the hiatus and return from official announcements. If you want to be mad at anyone, be mad at Miura for confusing everybody by apparently not going on hiatus after he announced he was going on hiatus.

It's funny seeing how certain people are reacting to the trailer...if that freaks them out they are in for a rude awakening if they read the manga.

Then again...how is a game like this being made? Berserk is so violent and has so much rape and such, I just don't see how a game based off it would get by the censors, especially in japan.

Hinotoumei is wrong, the latest chapter (or episode, whatever) of Berserk released on December clearly said that it'd be going on hiatus until summer this year, which is what happened. There haven't been any new releases since then until this month, where the manga'll resume on the 24th.

EDIT: Oh, I've read the Berserk manga Nagpo, just didn't expect them to use that part of the Eclispe as a teaser lol. Well, they did say it'd be the most evil/brutal Musou game in history, and I guess the teaser shows they ain't lying.

We never claimed the manga has been on hiatus since July. The manga resumed last July and was serialized regularly but then went on hiatus again in December (with episode 343) when the anime was announced. The manga's returning as an irregular series on June 24, and will be published once a month. If you see a recent article saying that the manga's been on hiatus since July please let us know, but looking back through our recent articles we've just said it's been on hiatus since December.

Not the biggest fan of the Musou genre,but Berserk is a perfect fit for it. Looking forward to the gameplay reveal!

Excited/piqued interest in a Dynasty Warriors style Berserk video game, but my god what shit choice of subject matter to use for an announcement trailer.

What on earth are you on about? They never said it was put on hiatus in July. I think you're miss-reading it somehow...


Regardless, back on topic here, I think the Musou series is a great fit for Berserk. I'm just curious if they'll play off the repeat of the same already used arcs or use another one. I NEED MOAR INFO... ლ(`∀´ლ)

They made Hokuto No Ken Musou and we all know how notoriously violent that is. Though it's likely they game will be edited in Japan just like that was.

What would you have rather them show, Gut's mother getting hung and her popping him out pre/post mortem?

Berserk especially in it's first half isn't exactly known for pleasant and uplifting imagery.

I think showing Guts kicking some Apostle behind or even just showing him suiting up would give a better indication of what the game's about to people unfamiliar with Berserk and get fans hyped up all the same. While the teaser's aimed at fans and shows that they're not holding back on content, it'll put some people off.
