On December 9, Marvelous will release Luminous Arc 3: Eyes which focuses on fairies instead of witches. A war between the fairies and human wages over eyes.

Marvelous will release Luminous Arc 3: Eyes on December 10, about a year and half after Luminous Arc 2 came out in Japan. Like the other two titles, Luminous Arc 3 is a blend a strategy RPG with adventure elements.

Arc Rise Fantasia and Luminous Arc both have “arc” in their name, but they are not related. Even though they are separate entities a few familiar faces from Luminous Arc found their way into Arc Rise Fantasia.

When Luminous Arc came out it had the luxury of trudging new territory as one of the few tactical RPGs on the Nintendo DS. Now there is a strategy RPG flood with Final Fantasy Tactics A2, Disgaea DS, and Drone Tactics. The niche genre blew up on the DS which is great for strategy RPG [...]

Since some of you asked for it I scanned the character art pages from a Luminous Arc 2: Will brochure I saved from last year’s Tokyo Game Show. There isn’t much to say because this is something too see, but there is a crossover comic with two heroines fans of the series will probably find [...]
