Area Effect passed along new content for its RPG “Izle” today. Check out a new trailer above, and a fresh set of details below.
All signs have pointed to XSEED’s localization of Forbidden Magna, but now we have yet another clue (essentially a confirmation) hinting at an upcoming announcement. The ESRB has rated XSEED’s “Lord of Magna: Maiden Heaven” for 3DS.
Here’s the full rating description:
This is a role-playing game in which players help an innkeeper assist a maiden to regain her memories. From a 3/4 over-head perspective, players explore landscapes, interact with characters, and battle fantasy creatures (e.g., dinosaur, gargoyles, robots). Players use swords, guns, and magic spells to defeat enemy creatures in turn-based combat. Battles are accompanied by mild explosions and impact sounds. One sequence depicts a character impaled by a sword. The game contains some suggestive material: a bath house sequence depicting female characters with exposed buttocks and/or partially obscured breasts; a female character scrubbing another character’s breasts; dialogue pertaining to breast size (e.g., “You really lucked out when filling out, huh” and “I wished mine were that big.”). The word “a*s” can be heard in the game.
There’s no doubt about it: that’s Forbidden Magna. Expect an official announcement in the near future!

What you see above is a unique, fan-made Mewtwo “amiibo”. It was built from an old Mewtwo toy and features the Mewtwo NFC chip from the Pokemon Rumble U toy line. The figure features unique packaging as well.

In making the original Xenoblade Chronicles, Monolith Soft wanted to include a full enemy encyclopedia. The team sadly ran out of development time so it wasn’t in the final game.
In new tweets published on the Xenoblade Chronicles X Twitter account by Monolith Soft’s Kojima, it’s confirmed that the RPG will feature an enemy encyclopedia. Players will be able to view 3D models of monsters they encounter, check what drop items they have, and more. Koh Kojima also teased that Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will include this as well.
