As a reminder, Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher is a Monster Rancher game that involves characters from the tokusatsu series Ultraman. Both kaiju from the series and new characters will appear in the game. Folks will get to raise them and send them to fight other kaiju.

Here’s the English Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher trailer. It shows some of the translated menus, UI, and text. It also goes over a few of the notable kaiju people will be able to get, raise, battle, adventure with, and fuse over the course of the game.

Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher is in development for the Nintendo Switch. It will launch in 2022. An English version of Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher will appear, though it is unknown if it will show up worldwide yet.
