Nintendo of Europe just published some new info about Bravely Second: End Layer, the sequel to the acclaimed 3DS RPG Bravely Default: Where the Fairy Flies, which will be released in Europe on February 26th.

Most importantly, perhaps, is the fact that a demo for the game will be released on February 11th. Just like in Bravely Default, save data from the demo can be transferred over to the full game in order to unlock in-game bonuses.

Story-wise, the game will feature characters from the first game such as Magnolia, Edea and Tiz, but will also include several new playable characters. Among those are the “Three Cavaliers” – Yew Geneolgia, Janne Angard, and Nikolai Nikolanikov, who set out to rescue the kidnapped Agnès Oblige at the start of the game.

In terms of gameplay, the previous game’s Brave and Default system will also be available in Bravely Second. Be reckless and gain additional turns in combat now with Brave, or save them up for later with Default – the choice is yours. A new feature in Bravely Second lets you chain together multiple battles after winning one in a single turn – you can gain more experience and better rewards that way, but dying means you lose all your accumulated rewards.

As in Bravely Default, you have multiple Jobs at your disposal. These are basically your character’s classes, and you can freely assign any of them. Some return from Bravely Default and some are brand new, such as the baked goods-using Patissier or the feline-affine Catmancer.

Perhaps not the biggest or most surprising news from today, but I thought it was interesting how Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam comes in a red case for its North American version. As far as I’m aware, it’s standard white packaging in other territories. We’ve seen the red casing with a few games in the past, such as with Mario Kart 8. The re-releases of Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, and New Super Mario Bros. 2 also had the red packaging.

Update 2: Not mentioned in the article specifically, but a Tears of Light change has been spotted in one of the images. See this post.

Update: Having gone through the Twilight Princess HD pages, it seems that it doesn’t talk about new features. Instead it re-introduces the whole game – story, Link’s abilities, etc. Famitsu only mentions that everything is redrawn in full HD… so pretty much nothing new. Enjoy the screenshots though!

This week’s Famitsu scans are now available. Highlighted games include Hyrule Warriors Legends, Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (3DS), Monster Hunter Stories, Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages, and Zelda: Twilight Princess HD. Scans of each title can be found in the gallery below.

New information about Yo-kai Watch Sangokushi has emerged from this month’s issue of CoroCoro. The magazine shares information about the story, characters, and more.

Yo-kai Watch Sangokushi begins as Komasa, Jibanyan, and Whisper visit Nate’s school. He comes across a peculiar book that ultimately transports them into an unknown world that has Yo-kai Watch in armor.

Players will be able to select either Jibanyan, Komasan, or USApyon. Your choice is important, as this will effect the beginning of the story as well as the abilities you can use. Orochi, Fubuki-hime, Kyubi, Bakuro, Robonyan, Masamune, and Honobono are also confirmed as characters appearing in Yo-kai Watch Sangokushi.

Those who have purchased previous Yo-kai Watch titles will be eligible for bonuses. For Yo-kai Watch 2, players will receive three Yo-kai. If you have Busters, two Yo-kai will be provided.

Finally, a word on Yo-kai Watch 3. CoroCoro will have brand new details about the game in its next issue.
