The first details regarding the enchanting new magical abilities coming to Koei Tecmo and GUST’s Fairy Tail have been released.

Based on the anime and manga series of the same name, Fairy Tail’s world of dragons and magic is intricately detailed in this title. Players will be able to combine in a Unison Raid to unleash all magic spells at one time to overpower any enemies that stand in their way. All new magic and character team-ups will also be featured, introducing powers from new character combinations.

To go alongside this, a series of Extreme Magic Spells will also make their appearance. This includes Kanna’s Fairy Glitter – which is activated when magic attacks are combined, Makarov’s “Giant” magic, and the Exceed Special spell, which can help when the going gets tough.

These characters can upgrade their spells by gaining XP throughout their journey.

Finally, through the use of magic, the party’s Awakening Gauge increases. When fully filled, characters can be Awakened, allowing them to utilize even more powerful magical abilities. Players can then expand their strategies across a wide variety of enemies and sorceries.

Koei Tecmo and GUST are taking the world of the anime and manga series Fairy Tail and bringing it to the world of video games with their new JRPG Fairy Tail. As players get ready to venture off in this magical title, Gamers Heroes takes a look at a spot-on cosplay of Lucy Heartfilia.

Cosplay artist calssara loves the Fairy Tail series, so it was only natural that she cosplayed as Lucy Heartfilia. She mentioned that she was drawn to Lucy, since she is positive and passionate about her dreams and her life. Though she mentioned that it’s a simple costume, she said that she had some bad luck making it. Nevertheless, it turned out well, and she says that it is quite comfortable.

Starting July 23, Cellar Door Games’ original “genealogical rogue-lite” is back with Rogue Legacy 2 in Early Access.

Much like the original, this title has the underpinnings of a typical roguelike (changing characters, randomized runs, etc.), but mixes things up with persistent upgrades and dead heirs. Your legacy defines you, and players will be able to grow the family manor to provide your children a better fighting chance.

Playstyles are varied as well. One can go in hard and fast as they dive deeper into the depths of each randomly-generated world. Alternatively, a slow and steady approach is also viable, helping you to build up your character until they are ready for greater challenges. New abilities like flight, dash, and air jumping can also be learned along the way.

New to Rogue Legacy 2 is a brand new style that features 2.5D stylings with 3D characters against hand-drawn backdrops. In addition, classes now feature weapons that completely alter how they play. Revamped biome generation has also been done, along with improved accessibility and more of everything (including clowns).
