Izuna returns to work, Atlus localizes Izuna Ni

The unemployed ninja returns to the Nintendo DS and in English on July 22 when Atlus releases Izuna 2: The Unemployed Ninja Returns. Free food draws Izuna into a festive event where Shino, Izuna’s sister, vanishes. However, she can’t be gone for long since Shino is a playable character in Izuna 2.

The new tag system allows Izuna to switch between other characters like Shino and Mitsumoto. Izuna can also team up with her partner character for a double screen attack. Aside from the tag system we can expect more of what made Izuna solid in the first place. More dungeons, more items, more side quests and more humor (maybe?).

With Izuna 2, Shiren the Wanderer, Shiren 3 and Baroque I dub 2008 the year of rougelikes.
