Atlus has confirmed it's bringing a new instalment of its RPG series Luminous Arc to DS later this year.
Luminous Arc 2 takes place four millennia after the original game. Peace has reigned over the Kingdom of Carnava for all of that time. Unfortunately though, the arrival of Fatima the Shadow Frost Witch leads to in-fighting among the Magic Association and a 'Witch Conflict' pushes Carnava to the brink of chaos. Enter Roland - your character - a young squire who has gained special powers following a chance encounter.
Nintendo Life writes: "The DS has seen some fantastic RPGs released this year, with Valkyrie Profile, Nostalgia and of course Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, and Luminous Arc II keeps the standard high with a quality Japanese RPG package that is sure to please anyone looking for a tactical fix."
In an interview with GameBrit, Tristram Defries of Rising Star Games has confirmed the publisher is thinking of introducing pre-order bonuses for titles in the UK. He also discusses sales of Little King's Story.
The irrepressible UK publisher Rising Star Games have revealed the release dates of the remaining titles on their 2010, including fantastically original games for both Nintendo DS and Wii. Including a number of titles from Rising Star Games' "The Home of Japanese Games" range, Rising Star Games are set to prove that, once again, they are one of the leading third-party publishers for traditional gaming on Nintendo consoles.
