Remember the Atlus teaser site with an ultrasound image of a baby? If you guessed it was for Conception II give yourself a high five! Atlus will localize Spike Chunsoft’s baby making role playing game and in the West it will be called Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars.
While the game is a sequel to a PSP RPG only released in Japan, Conception II is a standalone story. You are a Disciple with powers from a Star God to fight monsters inside Pandora Labyrinth. The problem is there are too many monsters spawning. Since a Disciple’s powers expire when you turn 19 you need to create new disciples, which means "making" star children. Wacky premise aside, Conception II has a neat combat system where enemies have directional weak spots and there are dating sim-lite mechanics where you can build your relationship with the girls by giving them presents.
Conception II will be released is spring 2014 for Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita. The game will be $39.99 on either platform.
