Final Fantasy remake developers reveal new original ARPG: Avalon Code

Matrix Software has been in the press most recently for their work on the remakes of Final Fantasies III and IV. Before that, they had their own original action RPG, Alundra, which was released in the U.S. on the PlayStation by the decadent Working Designs.

Their latest project is another original work, this time for Marvelous: an action RPG called Avalon Code. From what we can see in the scan, it has impressive 3D action on the top screen, with an art style reminiscent of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. The bottom screen appears as a book, and shows information about onscreen monsters, as well as your inventory. New details should show up for this game by the end of the week; until then, squint away in wonder!

Good to see some original stuff being done with their technical know-how. They play the DS like a piano.

worst simile ever

Wanna bet?

-They program the DS like a fat kid programs his lunchbox.

I hope this is gonna turn out like Alundra. That game was the shiznit back then. Any RPG-nerd who hasn't played this, shall pick it up in the near future!
