The New Denpa Men is out now on Android and iOS, bringing bizarre AR weirdness to mobile

The New Denpa Men are now available on iOS and Android! Catch these adorable creatures using your phone's camera, then pit them against enemies and bosses in exciting turn-based battles. Enjoy quirky minigames along the way!

When discussing Nintendo's library, we often find fantastic games that never quite achieved mainstream success. Sometimes this is due to deviating from their family-friendly image, other times, it's simply because they were…unique. The New Denpa Men, now available on iOS and Android, definitely falls into the latter category.

The New Denpa Men is a surprisingly accessible blend of augmented reality creature catching and classic turn-based RPG gameplay. Imagine Pokémon Go meets Dragon Quest—a fascinating formula that's finally made its way to mobile. Catch the titular Denpa Men, explore the overworld, engage in battles against both standard enemies and challenging bosses, and participate in unusual minigames, all while embracing the game's quirky charm.
