XSEED has some interest in Forbidden Magna
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
XSEED will be watching Forbidden Magna. The studio does appear to be interested in the recent-revealed 3DS title, as it told a pair of fans that it “looks great”.
The comments in full:
We just learned about it ourselves, but agree that it looks great. We can’t wait to get our hands on it and check it out ourselves eventually.
Yep, completely agree that Forbidden Magna is looking great. We’ll be keeping our eyes on it.
XSEED does have a pretty good relationship with Marvelous AQL. They’ve localized Rune Factory 4 and Senran Kagura Burst, for instance. It wouldn’t be too surprising if XSEED eventually picked up Forbidden Magna for the states as well.
