The folks over at Gematsu have translated the latest press release from Square Enix regarding Bravely Second, and it revolves around the new Guardian job. We’ve posted an excerpt of the press release below, head over to Gematsu for the full scoop:
New Job: Guardian
An offense-oriented job that focuses on manipulating spiritual power to unleash powerful attacks and buffs. Rumor has it that Guardians are even capable of using abilities held by other people….
New Exorcist Asterisk Holder: Bloody Geist
Bloody Geist is an Exorcist Asterisk Holder who serves the Grantz Empire and Emperor Oblivion. His age, origin, even his real name are all shrouded in mystery. He’s especially gifted at using his “Undo” skill, which reverts things to what they were previously. In practice this means he’s capable of literally undoing things that have taken place within the last several turns such as damage taken from enemies and consumed MP. Even if he severely and visibly injures someone, he can erase their memories of when they actually got hurt, leaving them just with their wounds. Unable to stop himself from hurting others, his sanity has been wrought asunder, constantly in a state of mental anguish and seeking an end to his life.

The clock has progressed beyond the point of midnight where I live, and as far as I’m concerned that means it’s The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D release day! We have a special way of celebrating game releases on NintendoEverything, and this month is no different. That’s right, February’s Game of the Month is going to be Majora’s Mask itself in all its oddities and wisdom and enjoyability and all of that other stuff. It’s an excellent game, and I hope you want to learn a lot about it that you didn’t know before; that’s what Game of the Month is for.
This month’s article schedule:
“More than you ever wanted to know about Tingle,” from Patrick on February 14th.
“Termina’s Landmarks,” from Scott on February 21st
“Untitled,” from Vincent on February 22nd
“Do we want more Zelda remakes? Will we get more?,” from Kira on February 28th
As usual, if you have an article you’d like to write about Majora’s Mask this month, please use the contact form to send us an email with your idea and if we like we’ll get back to you. How can you not love this game? It’s the best. Best Zelda game. Best game. Best thing. I love it.

In a recent interview with IGN’s Jose Otero, famed Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma had a few things to say on the process of recreating one of Nintendo 64’s greatest gems for the Nintendo 3DS.
T?o put it as bluntly as I possibly can, remakes kind of hurt. You’ re looking at all the decisions you were making and sometimes you’re saying to yourself, ‘I can’t believe I was thinking about it like that,’ or, ‘Why did I think it was okay to make the user do that in that situation?’
This is something that Mr. Miyamoto made a point of telling me at one time. He said, ‘?you need to look back and learn more from the work you’ve already done, before you go on to making something new.?’ I have to say, that can be a really uncomfortable experience, but I also feel like I learned so much. I’m actually really grateful that I had the opportunity to do something like that at work.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D releases for Nintendo 3DS on February 13th in US and Europe, along with the New Nintendo 3DS.
