Famitsu has a first look at New LovePlus + this week. The magazine doesn’t have any gameplay details, but managed to get a few words out of senior producer Akari Uchida.
First, Uchida addressed the fact that the original 3DS game suffered from a number of issues. New LovePlus + will make a number of improvements, and will also include a lot of new story scenarios.
“With the previous game, a lot of people said it had gotten harder to play after we reworked the gameplay system and interface. We are reconsidering the entire game here, including rolling back on some of those new features. In addition to that, though, I’ve written a massive amount of new story scenarios for each of the three heroines.”
Okay, this has me feeling a little better. We have a second confirmation from Warner Bros. that those who pre-order Batman: Arkham Origins on Wii U will receive the Deathstroke DLC. So despite what Amazon says
(PS3 and 360 only), you should be good to go if you decide to reserve origins for Wii U.
Esper Dream will be hitting the Japanese eShop as a Famicom download on July 10 for 500 yen. Screenshots of the game can be found above.
