Bravely Second

Thus far, we’ve seen Bravely Default and Bravely Second. There’s no question that the series will continue, and producer Tomoya Asano is already thinking about a third entry.

Speaking with Famitsu this week, Asano said:

“I don’t know what to say about that at this time [with Bravely Second releasing soon] but I already have some ideas for Bravely Third in my head. If Bravely Second sells well, I plan on presenting plans for it right away. Thank you for your continued support.”

Diffusion Million Arthur now has a new collaboration with Bravely Second to celebrate the game’s launch in Japan this week. Here’s what we know:

– Features various Asterisk Holders from Bravely Second as enemies
– These include the pastry chef Asterisk Holder Angelo W. Panettone
– Team up with Bravely Second characters to defeat the Asterisk Holders
– The second half of the event will feature the Tomahawk Asterisk Holder Aimy Matchlock as a powerful foe
– Will feature more from at the “Arthur Coliseum”
– This lets players partake in other collaboration events and get items that can only be acquired during the event

The new Diffusion Million Arthur event runs until April 23.

Famitsu published a first review of Bravely Second in the magazine’s latest issue. As we mentioned a few days back, the game received a total of 36 / 40, with individual scores of 9, 9, 9, and 9 from four different reviewers.

We now have a complete translation of the verdicts from Famitsu’s review. For the full transcript, head past the break.

Siliconera has translated a few more details about Bravely Second, which particularly cover the Fencer and Bishop jobs. Read up on the latest information below.

Fencer

– Damage dealers that use “Stances” to perform various abilities with their swords
– “Bison Horn”: Stance that increases defense
– “Falcon Claw”: stance that increases speed and allows them to do four consecutive attacks

Bishop

– Use “Holy Magic” as part of their role as a healer
– “Heal”: Bishop’s standard Cure-like ability
– Bishop’s have new magic with different effects like the “Divine Night” which turns damage into HP recovery during Defaults
– Have the job trait called “Reiteration” that increases the spells potency whenever you use it twice

Other

– New boat will allow you to travel on shallow waters of the sea
– Other useful vehicles in the game as well

Square Enix has shared additional details about the upcoming soundtrack for Bravely Second.

The soundtrack is comprised of 46 tracks, spread out across three discs. The first disc features 18 tracks, while the other two offer 16 tracks and 12 tracks respectively.

Two versions of the soundtrack are being prepared. There will be a standard release for 3,300 yen, plus a limited edition for 3,800 yen. The limited edition features original packaging and custom illustration jackets.

Various illustrated cards will be distributed by retailers, including a special one from the Square Enix store. Those who pre-order the soundtrack or ryo’s new single “Great Distance” will receive a special code that can be used to bring ryo’s data into Bravely Second.

Bravely Second’s soundtrack is coming to Japan on May 20.
