With Dragon’s Crown out this week in North America, you may be wondering when the game will hit Australian shores considering that Nippon Ichi Software America and Namco Bandai Games Australia are teaming up to publish the game in the region. The good news is that unlike Persona 4 Golden the wait isn’t too bad…. although there is going to be a couple of months till release.
Namco Bandai Games Australia have today confirmed that Dragon’s Crown will be released across Australia and New Zealand on the 17th October 2013 for both Playstation 3 and Playstation Vita platforms.
Developed by Vanillaware and directed by George Kamitani, Dragon’s Crown is a multiplayer action beat ‘em up from the developers of Princess Crown and Odin Sphere. Players can engage in local or online co-op play for dozens of hours of intense, dragon-slaying action – and is set to be complemented by the style of visuals you may have come to expect from the developers.
The paths that lead people into this land are manifold and varied, but they share a single goal. Now you have journeyed here to brave the dangers of the monster-ridden dungeons. Daring adventurers from far and wide have come to face the labyrinths on the outskirts of town, and you are joining their ranks. You must first gather a strong party. No one adventurer will be able to overcome these trials alone. Let us begin your journey…I wish you good luck.
Promoted Features of Dragon’s Crown include:
- Unparalleled HD visual design: From the maker of Odin Sphere, Vanillaware painstakingly hand-paints every detail—creating a lush, vibrant storybook aesthetic where everything is animated in gorgeous full 1080p HD.
- Play as 6 distinct and unique character classes: Choose from six fantastical characters—each possessing different abilities and strengths that will aid you as you traverse through the darkest of dungeons.
- Up to four person multiplayer action: Play cooperatively to overcome your foes with up to 3 of your friends locally or via PlayStation®Network on the PS3 or PS Vita. Each time players adventure together, they can expect a different experience and hours of satisfying adventuring. Cross-platform play is not supported, but players can engage in any ratio of local and online multiplayer.
- Loot galore: Dungeons aren’t only just about the fighting! Unseen treasures are hidden inside locked chests, and they can be appraised to determine their strength. See if you can find rare treasures!
