While PlayStation Plus users in North America and Europe get a steady stream of quality games, free play games were sparingly released in Japan. The service is getting steadily better.

The Little Battlers W, released for the PSP and PlayStation Vita in Japan last year, is headed to the Nintendo 3DS next.

On December 6, Level-5 will release the Mizel chapter for The Little Battlers W. This update adds characters, LBXes like Odin mk2, new special moves, and Famitsu reports a true ending.

Level-5 is preparing a major update for The Little Battlers W. Players will be able to get new LBXs, additional story scenarios, and a true ending to see.

Last week saw a slate of new releases in Japan, with Namco Bandai’s The Idolm@ster Shiny Festa taking the top spot.

Just five months after The Little Battlers eXperience launched in Japan, Level-5 released an improved version called The Little Battlers eXperience Boost.

The Little Battlers W, a sequel to 2011’s The Little Battlers, got off to a less-than-admirable start in Japan last week.

Last week’s biggest release in Japan was The Little Battlers W, the newest game in Level 5′s mecha series, but it wasn’t actually very “big” at all.

Stop by an arcade – one of the arcades in The Little Battlers W and you can play a LBX dungeon battle.

Level 5 won’t confirm if games like Fantasy Life and Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney are being localized, but they’re highlighting them in English anyway.

Level 5 released a new trailer for the game at the Tokyo Game Show.

Stop-motion animated feature meant to promote the next major Little Battlers game on PSP and Vita.

Professor Layton and Inazuma Eleven dominates Level-5′s Tokyo Game Show lineup.

The Little Battlers W looks pretty sharp in the latest trailer, but fans will have to wait two more weeks to play it.
