If you’re itching for a first person dungeon crawler and dig anime artwork check out Unchained Blades. Xseed picked up the title from Furyu and localized the scenario designed by Grandia creator Takashi Hino. Lunar leader Toshio Akashi is the game’s director and Shining series artist pako created Fang, the haughty protagonist in Unchained Blades.
Each lead character was drawn by a different artist. Toshiyuki Kubooka (Lunar series), Kumichi Yoshizuki (Someday’s Dreamers), Shinichiro Otsuka (Summon Night), Sunaho Tobe (Hexyz Force), and Kazushi Hagiwara (Bastard!!) contributed character designs.
Unchained Blades will have English voiceovers. Xseed will release Unchianed Blades as a digital download this spring for Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Portable via the Nintendo eShop and PlayStation Network, respectively.
