It appears that the first-person dungeon crawler Elminage Original will be coming to Europe. Ghostlight has announced via their blog that the game will be the next title they publish. Elminage Original, developed by Starfish-SD for the PSP, was released in North America late last year. The European release will feature the improvements included in the recent patch to the US version.
Some of the features of Elminage Original include:
- Old-school dungeon crawling in first-person view.
- A turn-based combat system featuring a variety of enemies.
- A multitude of quests that can be done in whatever order you like.
- A variety of different dungeons ready for exploring.
- A party that is customizable in terms of race, job and skills.
There was a hint that there may be a Collector’s Edition released, as well:
So, is there going to be a boxed Collector’s Edition, I hear you ask? Well, it’s not been decided yet but rumour has it that there might be a special promotional version in the works. If it goes ahead, stock of the Special Edition will be very limited indeed and the game will not be released in a standard version, so it’ll certainly be one for all you fanatical collectors out there. The game will be available this summer and I should be able to confirm a release date for the PSN version and details of the Special Edition in the next couple of weeks.
So, there you have it. Elminage Original will be released in Europe some time this Summer, with a confirmed release date, and details of any Collector’s Edition being announced in the coming weeks.
Elminage Original is currently available on the PlayStation Network in North America.
