Famitsu has shared screenshots from Etrian Odyssey II Untold: The Knight of the Fafnir. We also have learned a bit about the game’s plot.

Etrian Odyssey II Untold: The Knight of the Fafnir is set in the land of High Lagaard. The game stars Arianna, princess of the Duchy of Caledonia, as she heads to Ginnunga. Ginnunga is made up of mysterious old ruins and houses a ceremony that takes place only once a century.

When Ginnunga and her traveling party reach Ginnunga, the protagonist’s body is struck by an unknown ailment. This turns his body grotesque as his eyes go red and his hands and feet harden.

This week’s issue of Famitsu has a new report on Bayonetta 2. In it, the magazine primarily details Umbran Elegances and accessories, both of which are back for PlatinumGames’ sequel.

Bayonetta 2 allows players to obtain weapons and accessories from Rodin’s shop similar to the first game. “Rakshasa” and “Kafka” are two of the weapons that can be used with Umbran Elegance.

Rakshasa is a sword, and imprisoned within is a demon who has been purified. By flowing the power of Rakshasa into the wielder, one can easily swing the sword with dance-like movements.

Cybernator is heading to the North American Wii U Virtual Console tomorrow, Nintendo’s website confirms. It will be priced at $7.99.

This is certainly a fantastic week for Virtual Console games in the states to say the least. While we’re not getting XtremeSports as originally expected, this week’s VC lineup includes Super Mario Kart (Wii U), The Mysterious Murasame Castle (3DS), and some sort of Mega Man game (Wii U).

Curve Studios marketing manager Rob Clarke confirmed to Destructoid that Lone Survivor will be available for Wii U in November. Additionally, The Swapper and Stealth Inc 2 will follow within the month.

On the topic of new content for the Wii U version of Lone Survivor, Curve Studios marketing manager Rob Clarke said:

“We’re not adding any new content to Lone Survivor, as we added such a huge amount when we originally made the Director’s Cut edition for PlayStation last year. But we’ll have all the content in from the start and we’re making full use of the GamePad.”

Zen Studios has reiterated its dedication to Wii U time and time again. But you know what they say: “show, don’t tell”.

Thankfully, it sounds like it won’t be long now before Zen Studios shares some concrete information about its upcoming Wii U plans. The company’s Mel Kirk, writing on Zen’s forums, teased “very big Wii U news” that will be shared “very soon.”

He said:

Actually, we will have some very big Wii U news very soon. This is a difficult platform to support from a technology standpoint. Simple patches are not simple. New content additions are not easy due to the way the system is set up. We are committed to supporting Wii U. Again, please look for an announcement in the coming weeks. Thanks for supporting Zen Studios.
