The world might be in a continual state of Pokémon fever, but that doesn't mean that we've forgotten about Digimon. Bandai have recently revealed a new batch of Digimon Digivices coming out this Autumn, with four new variants to collect.

Shown in a post from our friends at CNET, the Digivices look exactly like the toys we know and love and come with the same original gameplay, including the ability to connect them up and battle with friends. They're set to be priced at $20, which is around £15/€17.

It's a Digi-resurgence, and hopefully, it will get new gamers to go back and check out the Digimon video games that we all played as kids in the process.

I say 'we've not forgotten about Digimon,' like the brand has totally disappeared off the face of the earth, but that's not true. There's still a strong following for Agumon and the gang around the world, a fact that was further solidified by the recent Hypeland Greymon coat that I covered. We might all be going wild for Pokopia and Poképark Kanto, but I'm still hoping I'll wake up one morning and look like WarGreymon, and I'll be grabbing these Digivices once they release later this year!
