Exorcist job revealed for Bravely Second
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Square Enix revealed a new job for Bravely Second during today’s live stream for the game known as the Exorcist. Here’s what we know:
– 4 party members shown playing as the Exorcist job
– Can turn back time with the “Never Happened” ability
– Go back up to 3 turns
– Ex: showed Nikolai taking some damage, and Magnolia used the “Never Happened HP” and it reverted his health back to what it was before he took damage
– This ability can also work when players get incapacitated
– As such, Exorcist is considered more of a healing class
– Since you can use it on other characters, it’ll come in handy, as they’ll be able to charge up with Defaults while always keeping their health the way it was
– The cost for Never Happened is relatively low
– Other Exorcist abilities will be revealed in the future
– Square Enix also showed the Asterisk Holder for the Exorcist job
– He’s a pretty creepy character, and was shown taking a slash attack, only to have it recover, as if it never even happened
– Illustration above made by yokoyan, who has worked on several occasions with Bravely Default composer revo on cover art, and more
On another note, Square Enix confirmed that Bravely Second will include roughly 30 jobs.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition announced for 3DS
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is coming to the 3DS, GungHo Online Entertainment announced today. The new game was revealed just a short while ago during the company’s “New Games Presentation”.
Shigeru Miyamoto took the stage and stated that he began noticing Puzzle & Dragons after seeing Nintendo developers playing it. He was also struck by the work ethic of the people at GungHo.
Eventually, discussions led to last year’s 3DS title Puzzle & Dragons Z, though Nintendo wanted to do more. Since they felt Mario making a guest character wouldn’t be enough for the audience of that franchise, Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition was created.
Below are the first gameplay details:
– Puzzle PRG
– Begins in the Mushroom Kingdom
– Bowser has harvested the power of a mysterious “Drop” that suddenly appeared
– Princess Peach kidnapped once again
– Up to Mario to save her
– Mario will do battle in the style of Puzzle & Dragons puzzle battles, befriending other Mario series characters on the way
– Supports StreetPass
– Local multiplayer functionality
Check out some screengrabs from the debut trailer below. We’ll post the full video once it’s available.
