Square Enix revealed a new job for Bravely Second during today’s live stream for the game known as the Exorcist. Here’s what we know:

– 4 party members shown playing as the Exorcist job
– Can turn back time with the “Never Happened” ability
– Go back up to 3 turns
– Ex: showed Nikolai taking some damage, and Magnolia used the “Never Happened HP” and it reverted his health back to what it was before he took damage
– This ability can also work when players get incapacitated
– As such, Exorcist is considered more of a healing class
– Since you can use it on other characters, it’ll come in handy, as they’ll be able to charge up with Defaults while always keeping their health the way it was
– The cost for Never Happened is relatively low
– Other Exorcist abilities will be revealed in the future
– Square Enix also showed the Asterisk Holder for the Exorcist job
– He’s a pretty creepy character, and was shown taking a slash attack, only to have it recover, as if it never even happened
– Illustration above made by yokoyan, who has worked on several occasions with Bravely Default composer revo on cover art, and more

On another note, Square Enix confirmed that Bravely Second will include roughly 30 jobs.

Capcom hasn’t released a demo for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the eShop, but some 3DS owners are managing to get access. We’re hearing that the demo was distributed at a Nintendo of Europe headquarters event today. There will apparently be another event in Paris soon as well.

Monsters in the demo include Great Jaggi, Tetsucabra, and Gore Magala. Online play is not yet functional.

The Legend of Legacy features a unique mapping system known as “Cartegraph”. Interestingly, it was something planned by SaGa designer Kyoji Koizumi for several years.

Director Masataka Matsuura spoke about The Legend of Legacy’s mapping system in an interview with Inside Games, noting:

“This system is from a project called ‘Cartegrapher’ (tentative title) that Koizumi-san has been working on for several years, and we decided to introduce its structure [in this game]. Koizumi-san suggested it, then fleshed it out with adjustments like rendering and such, which became the Cartegraph feature.”

“It was originally something very simple, but after adding the stereoscopic 3D to it, it became what we have today. When you look at it in 3D, it’s almost like those picture books that pop out, and it’s really fun!”

“By making maps as you go, I believe that you get a ‘sense of adventure’ while exploring the unknown wild lands. I think there will also be a sense of value to the maps themselves,” says Matsuura, adding that walking around and checking out the map will be fun in its own way.
