Look at the above image for a second, perhaps drool at them if you feel like it (Hey, no one is judging you here). These are the girls who will be playing Mahjong with you if you decide to purchase D3 Publishers upcoming Playstation 3 and XBox360 title Mahjong Dream Club, based off their other Dream Club games which has you trying to achieve a “happy ending” by making a girlfriend of your choice out of the hostesses at a club. This I believe is their first attempt at deviating from this normal system and to be completely honest… I have no idea how to even play mahjong so I doubt I will be picking this up. Regardless, for those who have never played the game… feel free to check out the brief character descriptions below and view the screenshots of the game.

All these characters are recurring from at least the release of Dream Club Zero on the XBox360 and Playstation Vita. Given that their personalities more or less remained the same between Dream Club and Dream Club Zero, I am going to assume that they will retain their personalities in this installment. The character portraits were sourced from HERE. Below, I have included a recent batch of screenshots for the game as well, covering the interaction and mahjong elements to the game.
