Sure is foggy in Agarest. It’s so foggy Aksys had to push Record of Agarest War back until next year when clearer skies are expected.
While Amazon has it available for $18.76, it’ll only cost you $15 to pick it up directly from Aksys.
Thanks to Aksys, it’s going to rain GungHo games next year. They extended their partnership beyond Hero’s Saga Laevatein Tactics by picking up Cho Aniki Zero and Mimana Iyar Chronicles.
While teaser sites seem to spring up every week in Japan, they aren’t as common in North America. So, we latched on to Aksys and Gaijin Games’ cryptic image clues which were for (surprise?) the next Bit.Trip game.
Aksys is teasing their “next entertainment product” and the only hint they gave us is “explore the void.”
“This is one of those titles where morbid curiosity really hits you once see some screenshots. Instead of being nothing but cheesecake, Record of Agarest War turns out to have some length and girth to it. Color us surprised.”
Even after knowing about it for months, it’s still hard to believe Record of Agarest War is being localized. We’ll get to play the PS3 “soul breeding” strategy RPG on November 9 via a PlayStation Network download.
BlazBlue is coming to Europe early next year thanks to PQube, a company so new their website isn’t even live. Their announcement also had a slip of the keyboard and leaked Arc System Works’ future plans.
Aksys and Arc System Works, the company behind Guilty Gear and BlazBlue, are tight. Their names are coincidentally similar, if you take the Japanese abbreviation “ArcSys” into account. Does Arc System Works actually own Aksys?
Remember in the old days of the NES when you’d play for hours despite the stabbing pain in your thumb thanks to the awfully sharp NES d-pad? Well, those days have returned thanks to Gaijin Game’s Bit.Trip Core.
