Import Watch: Luminous Arc

Those of you who love to import games that have a very low probability of making it to the U.S. or love to play the import version of a game before the domestic version of the game is released (for bragging rights) should mark February 8 on your calendar. It may not be much, but Luminious Arc, an SRPG developed and published by Marvelous Interactive Inc., will grace the world with its presence; and since the DS, and to a larger extent the U.S., is lacking in SRPGs, it may not be too bad of an idea to import Luminous Arc.

If that isn’t enough motivation, then perhaps you can take comfort in knowing that the score to Luminous Arc is being composed and arranged by none other than Yasunori Mitsuda, the brilliant man behind the scores to such great games as Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Xenogears, Xenosaga Ep. 1, etc…perhaps that’s too much of a motivation.

Look forward to our impression of Luminous Arc once the game is released.
