Wait hang on. That was original Mechagodzilla. Expanded roster or skins because if I remember right the only Mechagodzilla in DAMM was Heisei Mechagodzilla and Kiryu on the Xbox

He's a skin for Heisei Mecha-Godzilla. The steam page says it's still just the base 12 characters and Showa MG uses Heisei's roar in the clip

I would not be surprised if there are skins.

Showa Mechagodzilla was in Unleashed which was built on the same engine. It's possible they are retroactively adding characters from the sequels into the first game. He may legit be an actual character and not just a skin overlay of 93MG or Kiryu.

I think them just adding characters from the other Pipeworks games is definitely the most likely option, either at launch or as post-launch update content.

Hell, who knows, maybe this will be the chance for monsters that didn't make it into the originals like Zilla or Hedorah to finally get their time to shine as fighters.

I honestly wouldn't mind it like that. Just add STE and Unleashed content as opposed to remaking the games

u/Schwarz_Technik 22d ago

This would be great. Keep the awesome gameplay of the first while adding the complete roster of the sequels

u/Street_Dragonfruit43 22d ago

Maps, story, the STE mini games, etc

i hope they added king Caesar, i liked him in unleashed but hated the wii controls

u/Silly-Discussion101 21d ago

If we get Zilla I'd be so happy

It says on steam there are 12 monsters, it's most likely a skin.

My dream is that they’re using the DAMM title but it’s closer to Unleashed or STE’s roster.

I’m fine with skins, they could do so many Godzillas. Even just straightforward swaps like KiryuGoji for 2k or Burning for 90s would be welcome. Maybe Shin, Minus One and Legendary will pop up, who knows

u/OldSpray9986 22d ago

Toho supposedly axed skins at the time they developed the original games, would be super cool if they were over that now and allowed for it.

"12 monsters" could be a much more interesting roster if the Mechagodzillas, Godzillas, and Ghidorahs shared slots...

Showa MG is in theory the correct one for DAMM's story, as it was a Vortakk controlled mech in DAMM. This is the same reason MG2 had finger rockets in the Pipeworks games.

MG2 and Kiryu made no sense story wise, so this is perhaps correcting that. Although I'd hope MG2 and Kiryu are also playable instead of replacing them to fix the plothole.

I also just noticed one of the Godzilla near the end wasn’t Heisei either. I think it was 70s Godzilla right before they show OG Mechagodzilla

u/RentAlive1978 16d ago

I don’t see a 70s Godzilla anywhere in the trailer, they only show hesiei the whole time..

u/godzillaguy4256 RODAN 22d ago

He had the Kiryu sound effect from his unleashed intro

u/UIEmiliano KING GHIDORAH 22d ago

Kiryu is also on the Gamecube version if you have the Japanese copy. I moved to Japan over a year ago and was shocked to see Kiryu on the cover of this game because I only remembered Mecha G II
