This week’sissue of Famitsu has extensive coverage on Zero Time Dilemma. You can find a bunch of details from earlier in the week here and some interview excerpts with director Kotaro Uchikoshi here. We’ve also now gone through the interview and picked out a few more details. There aren’t massive spoilers here, but I know some folks can be sensitive to certain information about the story and other aspects – so tread lightly towards the end of the post!

To clarify something from the interview, when it was mentioned that they originally planned to make the second and third games in the series at the same time, they were going to make it for the DS. But right around that time, the 3DS and PlayStation Vita – two new handheld systems – were announced, so they considered moving development to both platforms which could allow for improved graphics and overall quality. That meant more development time and a higher budget would be needed. This is also why the team ended up developing the second game first, and then waiting to see what the reception was like before moving on to the third title – Zero Time Dilemma.

Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus, first revealed for Wii U last July, has now received a release date. Aksys Games and LookAtMyGame announced today that the title will be available on March 31 as an eShop download. A price point was not specified.

Wii U owners can expect a fusion of action-adventure and RPG elements in Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus. Players will navigate through hordes of enemies and massive boss battles, solve puzzles, talk with locals, and gain skills to restore hope to Exidus. The game also features hidden items, secret areas, and bonus quests within the experience that will feature over 30 hours of gameplay.

Here’s a rundown of features:

– Four Magical Realms – Explore an enchanted nexus of worlds never before imagined! Collect magical tomes to gain access to new areas and further the narrative!
– Bring on the Bad Guys! – Giant bosses and vicious monsters will test your might as you fight to save Exidus. Develop your skills and adapt your tactics to gain the edge over evil!
– Musicom – Communicate with monsters and villagers by collecting runes and mastering their arcane language!
– A Trove of Treasures – Bonus unlockables, secret items and extra quests add extra depth to the gargantuan journey before you!

For those that missed it, we’ve attached Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus’ original trailer below.
