The 3DS RPG from Level-5, Fantasy Life, is to be released on September 24th in Europe and on October 24th in North America.
Fantasy Life has been described as a cross between Final Fantasy and Animal Crossing, and comes from the Professor Layton and Ni No Kuni developer Level-5. The game was first released in Japan in 2012 and sold over 300,000 copies in the first four months of release. An expansion to the game, Fantasy Life Link!, was released in July 2013 and added online play into the game. Nintendo announced that both the EU and NA versions of the game would include online play right of the bat, so there would be no need for the expansion.
In Fantasy Life, you explore the vast world of Reveria, which is filled with monsters and dungeons. Create a customized character, with which players will build themselves both a home and a life for themselves, swapping between several jobs at once. Exploration can be done by yourself or with two other friends. The game also has an original soundtrack, composed by famous Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu.
