PSP Dungeon Crawler Elminage Original Heading Overseas

I didn’t think it would happen, but a game in Starfish’s dungeon crawler series Elminage is being localized. UFO Interactive picked up Elminage Original, the first game in the series. Here’s a bunch of screenshots and how UFO Interactive describes it:

In the world of Elminage Original, six rings harbor the powers of the gods. The world has been protected by a barrier created by 5 of the rings since before anyone remembers. When a dark priestess shatters the barrier and scatters the rings, the once peaceful world is now threatened by the dark creatures emerging as the barrier fades. Word spread among adventurers that a monumental reward was in store for the ones that can gather all the rings and call forth the barrier once again. So the adventure begins…

Elminage Original is a remake of the first game in the series, which Starfish released for PlayStation 2 in 2008. The game has 12 typical fantasy races, 16 classes, and a feature that lets players customize their character icons by loading images from a memory card. In Japan, players made Street Fighter and Etrian Odyssey parties for Elminage III.
