The conference is being sub-titled “New Heroes” and will feature updates and reveals for much of Level-5’s upcoming projects. This includes Yo-Kai Watch, the previously announced Snack World, a new cross-media project, and an update on a mysterious title “I…”. Previous hints from the company have all but said that it will be an Inazuma Eleven project. Furthermore, 500 fans will be chosen via lottery to attend the event.

Before that, though, there will also be a NicoNico Stream this Friday, June 24th, that will feature more information about the event, as well as Yo-Kai Watch 3, the Yo-Kai Watch movie hitting Japan in December, and a secret about the previously mentioned “I…” title.

After Level-5 Vision, there will also be a Level-5 Fan Night from 19:30 to 21:30 JST (5:30 to 7:30 EST). This will feature fan participation events, discussions about Level-5 titles, a Yo-Kai Watch activity corner, a concert, and some event revolving around the “I…” title. 1,800 fans will be chosen via lottery to attend.
