You may recall that Kemco released Chronus Arc on the Japanese 3DS eShop last month. Tomorrow, the RPG will be available in North America as well. Nintendo’s website has Chronus Arc listed for release on October 1 for $9.99.

Here’s an overview from the page:

The Chronus Fragments are needed to prepare for the Time Rewinding, which only takes place once every 10 years. On their way to the Chronus Shrine to get the Fragments, Loka and his teacher Teth are surrounded by a mysterious man named Geppel and his gang. They demand the Fragments. While Teth plays for time, Loka, the main character, rushes out of the cave on his own to fetch reinforcements. He is successful, but Teth and Geppel are nowhere to be found.

Aiming to gather information about his missing teacher, Teth, and Geppel, who is trying to get his hands on the Fragments, Loka decides to set out on a journey with his friend Sarna.

The game features familiar quests, but also dungeons filled with puzzles to solve, and characters who grow and can be developed as the story progresses with the class change system.

Also, additional dungeons and special items are available for extra fun by collecting Mana!

Don’t miss out on Loka and his friends’ grand adventure!

Genei Ibun Roku #FE is coming to Japan in late December. As the game is just a few months away, we’ll now be seeing more regular coverage of the title. Famitsu does have another update on Genei Ibun Roku #FE this week.

There are a few keywords for Genei Ibun Roku #FE like “Idolsphere”, “Mirage”, and “Mirage Master”. The Idolsphere is an alternate version of cities such as Shibuya and Harajuku where the Mirages come from. As for the plot, it’s about an average protagonist who stumbles into such a world. Mirages are mysterious beings from the Idolsphere dimension that lend their power to humans. Of course, they look like Fire Emblem series’ heroes and villains. Mirage Masters, who receive aid in battle from heroes such as Chrom and Sheeda, are those who hold a mysterious power that allows them to utilize Mirages by summoning them.
