Square Enix revealed a new job for Bravely Second during today’s live stream for the game known as the Exorcist. Here’s what we know:
– 4 party members shown playing as the Exorcist job
– Can turn back time with the “Never Happened” ability
– Go back up to 3 turns
– Ex: showed Nikolai taking some damage, and Magnolia used the “Never Happened HP” and it reverted his health back to what it was before he took damage
– This ability can also work when players get incapacitated
– As such, Exorcist is considered more of a healing class
– Since you can use it on other characters, it’ll come in handy, as they’ll be able to charge up with Defaults while always keeping their health the way it was
– The cost for Never Happened is relatively low
– Other Exorcist abilities will be revealed in the future
– Square Enix also showed the Asterisk Holder for the Exorcist job
– He’s a pretty creepy character, and was shown taking a slash attack, only to have it recover, as if it never even happened
– Illustration above made by yokoyan, who has worked on several occasions with Bravely Default composer revo on cover art, and more
On another note, Square Enix confirmed that Bravely Second will include roughly 30 jobs.
Breaking news! One of our interns recently saw a squid guy fall into a creek during a turf war, and guess what?! The squid dissolved! This suggests that these creatures can’t maintain a solid form when submerged in water. Does this mean that they’re actually made of liquid? The mystery deepens…
Form Up Studios LLC has partnered with Sc0tt Games to launch Tri-Strip on the Wii U eShop. The game is a retro-themed, single-player puzzle project that has players scoring points by arranging rows of triangular tiles into quads. Challenge modes and time-based events are included in the full release.
Capcom hasn’t released a demo for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the eShop, but some 3DS owners are managing to get access. We’re hearing that the demo was distributed at a Nintendo of Europe headquarters event today. There will apparently be another event in Paris soon as well.
Monsters in the demo include Great Jaggi, Tetsucabra, and Gore Magala. Online play is not yet functional.
Arrow Time U has received an update. If it doesn’t appear when booting up, you may need to delete the game entirely and re-download from the eShop.
“Despite poor sales”, developer XenoHorizon pushed forward with the update, as the studio didn’t want to go back on its word.
XenoHorizon is taking what it learned with Arrow Time U and applying it to future projects. Speaking of which, it sounds like the indie developer has another title lined up for Wii U.
The ATU update is finally out. You may have to delete it and re-download it from the #eShop to update.

Despite poor sales we said we'd put out the update and we did since we don't like going back on our word. But it's time to move on now.

ATU's not one of the better games on the #eShop but we think it's a better investment now to use what we learned on our future games.

Thank you for your understanding and you'll hear from us again when we announce our next #WiiU exclusive in a few months, if not sooner!
