Proto:Digimon Rumble Arena 2
This page details one or more prototype versions of Digimon Rumble Arena 2.
This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
To do:
|
An early prototype from March 5, 2003 was used as padding inside the final PlayStation 2 release. It is dated over a year before the game was completed and is very different compared to the finished product.

General Differences
Title Screen
Prototype | Final |
---|---|
The title screen is completely different compared to the final.
Character Roster
Prototype | Final |
---|---|
Not only is the title screen different, but the character select screen is as well. It's worth noting that some of the characters seen in the prototype were inexplicably cut in the final release for unknown reasons. Oh, and most of the unlockable characters can't be unlocked. The only playable characters in this prototype are Agumon, Patamon, Hawkmon and Armadillomon (in which as stated above, the latter two were cut, leaving only Veemon to be the only playable 02 character in the final).
