Siliconera: Game Arts, makers of Ragnarok Odyssey and the Dokuro, are working on their third PlayStation Vita title. Picotto Knights is a quite different since it’s 1.) network focused and 2.) free to download.
Picotto Knights the belt action RPG for PlayStation Vita from Game Arts has some familiar guests. Anyone remember Feena from Grandia? Game Arts added Grandia characters into the game as cutesy Cocoroids.
Viva la Vita: "PSVita exclusives crossing over with one another. Square Enix's launch title Army Corps of Hell is joining in on Gungho's Picotto Knights. The new collaboration, which begins on March 21st and ends on April 4th sees The King of Hell, and his goblin troops become a mission in which players can complete to unlock special items."
Spencer, Siliconera: "Picotto Knights is a beat ‘em up action RPG kind of like Dragon’s Crown (without salacious sorceresses) or Capcom’s Dungeons and Dragons arcade games. The twist is you can get costumes to customize your knight like a dinosaur and starting on December 6 different Ragnarok Online classes.
Lord Knight, Champion, Magician, Swordman, and Super Novice skins are coming to Picotto Knights. Grandia crossover items are also in the works. Players will be able to dress up as main characters like Justin, Feena, and Sue.
Picotto Knights was released as a free download in Japan. Gung Ho Online Entertainment America will localize the title and release it in North America next year."
