New Details for Bravely Second and D's Report

Japanese videogame website 4Gamer got its hands on a series of press images for Bravely Archive: D's Report. D's Report is mobile game announced at the end of December, while your humble newsposters were making rather merry. The game puts you in charge of a Librarian of the Anastasis Library, whose task is to hunt down knowledge in the form of memories stored in crystals, which are naturally guarded in dungeons and other scary places with monsters. You can see the images here, which include the main characters, some locations, and some combat. The game is supposed to release already this month in Japan for iOS and Android; no word yet on western release.

There are also a few new details on Bravely Second out this morning via a livestream event run by Dengeki. It was confirmed that Edea, one of the primary characters from the original, will show up in Bravely Second. We're not yet sure how, but this means that three of the four primary characters from Bravely Default will be making appearances.

A new job class was also announced, the Exorcist, who will have the ability to turn back the clock in battle. We haven't heard yet what else it'll be able to do (there is definitely more), but the Exorcist certainly continues the trend of Bravely games introducing unorthodox new jobs, like this here Cat Master.

There still isn't any confirmation of a western release for Bravely Second, but Tomoya Asano - the game's producer and one of its writers - joked about the game's use of accents being a future test for localization translators. If there was much doubt about whether the game would see western shores, this should help allay them. Also, it appears some characters in the game will speak fluent English. Don't worry it makes perfect sense, because they're from the moon, and everyone on the moon speaks English. Duh.
