Nora to Kaku no Koubouis a new DS fantasy RPG from a fantasy team. Producer Shigeo Komori worked onEtrian Odyssey II, III, Devil SummonerandPrincess Crown, and now he’s working on this new title. Shinichi Yoshiike ofAtelierseries fame is also on board as a character designer. Character designs are fromEO‘s Yuji Himukai. I’m especially excited about the score, which comes from Michiko Naruke, ofWild Armsfame.
The latest Famitsu says that the game centers around a character named Nora. She comes to Misty Forest to master her trade of alchemy but is suspected of being a witch. She ends up helping the people of a town to prove her innocence, saysAndriasang. Nora is capable of controlling time, and can create new items out of old ones. That sounds pretty witchy to me!
This game, which Komori calls a “slow life RPG,” is already 85 percent complete. It will be released in Japan on July 21st. Atlus will be the publisher.
