Nintendo of America announced on Thursday that it will release the first Yōkai Watch game for the Nintendo 3DS on November 6.
Nintendo plans to also publish the role-playing game in Latin America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Korea.
Nintendo also revealed that the television anime series will premiere on Disney XD this fall. Dentsu Entertainment USA and LEVEL-5 Inc. had announced in June that the anime would air on Disney XD, but had only said that the anime would premiere later this year. The agreement thus far includes 26 episodes.
The debut of the anime and the 3DS game in the U.S. will also tie in with Viz Media's release of the first volume of Noriyuki Konishi's Yo-kai Watch manga adaptation, which Viz is releasing as part of its Perfect Square Imprint on November 3.
Level-5 will release the Yōkai Watch 3 3DS game, which is set in the U.S., in summer 2016 in Japan.
