A neat Japanese 3DS game was announced – and subsequently released on the eShop – during the latest Nintendo Direct. Skipmore and Flyhigh Works’ Drancia Saga is now available.

There are over 50 playable characters in the game. Also, there are more collaboration characters that are unlocked by having select games installed on the same 3DS. When selecting a collaboration character, the first area stage and music will also change to fit its setting.

– Petit Novel Series: Harvest December
– Witch & Hero

Note: extra characters are unlocked if you have both Gunman Clive, Witch & Hero and The Legend of Dark Witch games.
