Final Fantasy Explorers was updated in Japan yesterday. Square Enix brought out a new job, boss, and more.

In the job department, Blue Mage has been added to Final Fantasy Explorers. It has a “learning” skill to acquire moves from enemies and the “beacon of counter attack” to increase strength. Blue Mages can initially use short swords or staves.

There’s also a great variety of blue magic spells. These include things like goblin punch, where power depends on physical strength (and the move is more powerful if a short sword is equipped). Other spells include fire breath, magnetic storm, leaf cutter, and Aeroga. There are quite a number of additional spells, too.

Square Enix is readying several pre-order bonuses for Bravely Second in Japan.

By reserving the game on the company’s e-store, players will receive the exclusive Trinity Sword. This features a new ability called Divine Night that lets you absorb the damage you’d normally take, during a Default.

Amazon Japan is giving out the Ogre’s Swing katana. The weapon has the Shell Split ability that was used by Pirates in Bravely Default. It’s capable of lowering the target’s physical defense up to 75%.

Another pre-order bonus, the Dragonbreath bow, comes from GEO Hyper Media Shop. The bow makes use of the new ability Physical Up, which is used to increase a target’s physical attack.

Last but not least is the Holy Spear Garuda from Game Tsutaya. This has the Haste Magic – a level 2 Time Magic in Bravely Default – that increases speed by up to 150 percent.
