We recently learned about Marvelous’ new Switch title Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura, and booby producer Kenichiro Takaki shared some more thoughts in this week’s issue of Famitsu magazine. [Thanks, Game Jouhou.]

Highlights from the interview:

Takaki finds the Nintendo Switch’s HD Rumble feature especially fascinating. He expects to be able to do all kinds of different things that weren’t possible with previous rumble functions.

If you’re wondering what they’ll be doing with the HD Rumble function on Shinobi Refle, Takaki says he’ll leave it to your imagination for the time being.

Marvelous is going for a pure and wholesome Senran Kagura game with this one, and one big objective is to use the HD Rumble to better communicate character emotions.

You can expect the story to be a bit on the silly side, but something you’ll get to enjoy differently than before.

Shinobi Refle is a concept title that uses the HD Function as a base, and will be available for an affordable price as a download-only title.

Only Asuka will appear as a character.

They’re working on Asuka’s graphics from scratch. While keeping its anime style, they’re hoping to beautifully show its lighting as well.

Currently thinking about using Switch functions other than the HD Rumble.

Takaki says the Switch is incredibly easy to develop for, and is thinking about other titles that can use the Switch’s functions.

Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura is expected to release in Japan in 2017 for Nintendo Switch.
