Here’s an overview of the game shared a couple of months ago:
Welcome to the world of psyscrolr, a tale of a young man outcast from his society by gaining powers he never wanted or had. The Scrolr, which is the main character, must find his way through the beautiful landscapes while solving puzzles, fighting enemies, and uncovering the truth of his world while being hunted by the Magi; a sect of wizards who wish to put an end to the Scrolr’s new powers.
Utilizing the Wii U GamePad, interact with the world directly as you make contact from your world to the Scrolr’s world. Move objects, shoot fireballs, block hits… the touch is your greatest weapon.
In a recent issue of Famitsu, Tomonobu Itagaki sat down with the magazine to chat a bit about Devil’s Third. Itagaki further talked about working with Nintendo and the Wii U hardware, confirmed that “major improvements” have been implemented in all areas since E3, and plenty more.
Head past the break for the full discussion.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate will offer an improved experience on New 3DS. We previously heard about the addition of camera control with the system’s c-stick, but this isn’t the only enhancement. Famitsu also reports that Ultimate will have improved loading times on the upgraded 3DS.
Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai Remix has received a name change in the west. Going forward, it will now be known as “Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX” in both North America and Europe.
SEGA announced the 3DS game for Japan earlier this week. In that territory, it’s known as “Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai Deluxe”.
Next Level Games has dabbled with the combination of Mario and sports in the past. Super Mario Strikers launched for GameCube, while Mario Strikers Charged came out for Wii. Next Level Games also created an idea for a third project at one point: “Super Mario Spikers”.
Super Mario Spikers would have been a new game for Wii featuring a mixture of volleyball/wrestling gameplay. Development never actually began, and the idea was canned soon after the initial phases of conceptualization.
Unseen64 has plenty of additional information here.
The Zelda tributes continue on the European Wii U eShop! This time around, the store has been updated with music straight out of Hyrule Warriors. Check it out in the video above.
