Raw Fury released the Cassette Beasts 2002 Showcase, a video on the sequel in development at Bytten Studio for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The game keeps the open-world turn-based RPG system, where players record the monsters called Beasts onto cassettes and transform into their forms to fight, but sets a new story and setting. The video covers 12 companion characters, Origin, and Rogue encounters.
Raw Fury and Bytten Studio announced on August 27 that the monster-collecting RPG sequel 'Cassette Beasts 2002' will launch in March 2027. The game is set in 2002 London, where the protagonist is pulled into the monster-inhabited land of Nodnol while investigating the occultist Wersterley and his plan spanning two worlds. Players record monsters onto cassette tapes and transform into them to battle, with over 250 monsters appearing. Fusion combines two transformed monsters into new forms, yielding more than 57,000 combinations, all rendered with animation. Twelve fully voiced companions join the adventure, each with unique abilities, story purposes, and romance options, doubling the previous game's six. Online co-op is built in from the start, allowing players to exchange tapes, record monsters, and cooperate in story battles. The game will be available on PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, with Japanese display support planned. A trailer introduced the English voice cast, including Neil Newbon, known for Astarion in 'Baldur's Gate 3'. The previous game, 'Cassette Beasts', released in 2023, holds a 'Very Positive' rating on Steam with 94% favorable reviews from about 9,000 user reviews.
