XSEED has acquired the domain name “LordOfMagna.com”. It was registered on December 11.

Lord of Magna could very well be the localized name of Marvelous’ 3DS title Forbidden Magna. Given that XSEED is a subsidiary of Marvelous, I’d say it’s very likely that the game will be brought over to North America sometime this year.
