Lunar Knights, known in
Japan as and abbreviated Boktai DS, is the fourth title in the
Boktai series of
games developed by
Kojima Productions, and announced at
E3 2006. It begins a new story arc, and follows new protagonists and hence has also been marked as the beginning of a new series. Although the publisher and/or developer appears to be erasing references to
Boktai from the English version (mainly in the form of changing character names), it it is evident from the Japanese title and style of the game that it is the spiritual successor to the
Boktai series. This is most likely because Boktai was successful in Japan, but not in the United States and Europe. The game was revamped to remove the necessity of using the real-life solar sensor due to player troubles; however, it still retains the functionality if any of the
Game Boy Advance Boktai cartridges are inserted.
