Two weeks ago Nippon Ichi unveiled the PS3 exclusive side-scrolling JRPG Battle Princess of Arcadias and today they sent in another large batch of info, screenshots and artwork. Incidentally, the game is rather important for the historical Japanese softco, as it’ll mark the 20th anniversary of its activity in the industry.
Battle Princess of Arcadias is an action role-playing game that places you in the role of Princess Plume, a hardened battle princess that has sworn to protect her kingdom and loyal subjects from danger. To our heroine’s dismay, however - a ‘great’ evil takes the kingdom by surprise, decimating everything and everyone in its path. Plume vows vengeance against the great evil, but she must rebuild the kingdom’s brigade (i.e. army) first before she can defeat it.

The core gameplay of the combat missions are the real strength, and offer hours and hours of hack and slash fun. Being able to replay each mission adds more value to the game, but some missions you won’t want to play again. In addition, the game also comes with plenty of side missions that are completely optional for you to play through. If you’re willing to overlook the frustrating parts, Battle Princess of Arcadias is a solid experience.
If you are looking for a side scrolling RPG with challenge and varied gameplay, Battle Princess of Arcadias is the goose you need to cook.
