Expect a whole lot more of Bravely Default in the future. Going forward, producer Tomoya Asano hopes to launch “a product relating to Bravely Default every year.”

Asano comment comes from a recent Famitsu interview. He didn’t necessarily say that we’ll be seeing a new mainline entry each year, so we can probably count on things such as spinoffs.

Famitsu has published another article about Exstetra with a few more screenshots and details. You can find the images and a summary of information below – translation courtesy of Siliconera.

Recap

– Game’s premise is Tokyo having fused with the alternate world Amasia
– Ryoma, an amnesiac student, learns that your kiss turns others into Prisma Knights
– This affects both men and women
– Sword-wielding Jin and archer Mizuki will team up with Ryoma
– Ryoma’s powers mark him as the Prisma, the messiah destined to save Amasia from its destruction and return worlds to normality

New details

– The area around Tokyo’s Akihabara has now fallen as silent as the grave
– Area has buildings and bridges adorn with lush tropical greens
– Delving into Akihabara’s dungeon, it spreads off as far as the eye can see, bleak darkness with shafts of light punctuating its metallic corridors and walkways
– Impossible drops and far off pillars make for difficult traveling
– Ryoma and friends will retire to Seiba village in between exploring Tokyo
– Depending on how the various heroines are feeling, special side interaction events between Ryoma and the girls could be unlocked

Two more 3DS models are ceasing production in Japan. Nintendo has confirmed that the Ice White and Cosmo Black variations will soon be discontinued.

In May, Nintendo ditched the Cobalt Blue and Misty Pink 3DS systems. Aqua Blue and Flare Red colors have also followed the same path, so this isn’t too out of the ordinary.
