Art of Koei�s Opoona

By Spencer . March 14, 2007 . 2:33pm

Koei has teamed up with Arte Piazza who used to create the Dragon Quest games before Level 5 stepped in to make a RPG on the Wii. Opoona has been coined as a “lifestyle RPG” where the player has to make a life for himself on a new planet as he searches for his lost siblings. Opoona is not just about battling, it’s about deepening relationships with you’re the inhabitants of Landroll. As Opoona befriends NPCs on Landroll his Tomodachi meter increases, which lets him try out new jobs and discover new adventures. When he Opoona has to fight he uses “energy bonbons” to attack enemies which players can throw by snapping the nunchuck. Currently Opoona is scheduled to come out this summer in Japan and a North American release window has not been determined. Past the break are character introductions and some of Opoona’s unique artwork.

 

Opoona

Opoona is a descendant of the Cosmo Guard, brave warriors who strive to maintain universal peace. His parents, who are highly acclaimed Cosmo Guards, took him to the planet Landroll, which looks similar to the Earth. But an accident befalls them. His siblings are Copoona and Poleena.

 

Copoona

Copoona is Opoona’s little brother. People such as Copoona who have Energy Bonbons as their base are said to posses a strong sacred force. He is still infant, but a self possessed type. He is also very gentle and always thinks much of Opoona and Poleena. Through his adventure on Landroll, he grows up to be a reliable Cosmo Guard.

 

Poleena

Opoona’s little sister. She is rather spoiled, but her characteristics are nice and cheerful. Like her  mother, she has a special ability to shoot two Energy Bonbons at one time. She can communicate with plants, animals, and fairies.

 

Chaica

Chaica is a girl who lives in a residential dome on Landroll. She gets to know Opoona by chance.Contrary to her frail look, she is highly skilled for battles against Dark Rogues.

 

The Dark Rogues

These evil monsters emerged from a mysterious meteor several hundred years ago. There are over 150 species of Dark Rogues. These are just some of the Dark Rogues.
