Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Level-5 has big expectations for Fantasy Life. Speaking with Famitsu this week, president and CEO Akihiro Hino said that he’d like to turn the series into a million-seller in Japan.
He said:
“For me, Fantasy Life is a title I’m really glad we were able to make. Development on it was difficult and time-consuming, but seeing it be appreciated by everyone gives us the confidence to try creating new things. I’d like to see Fantasy Life grow into a series we can sell a million copies of [in Japan]; I think it’s one of the bigger success stories in our drive to take on new challenges, so I’d like to have the courage to connect it to the next thing.”
Level-5 has previously expressed interest in pursuing Fantasy Life further. An update for the 3DS game, known as Fantasy Life Link, is coming to Japan in July.
