XSEED announces US release for Vanillaware’s ‘Oboro Muramasa Youtouden’
Posted by HCG Musashi | Filed under News, Previews
Some good news for us Wii owners who have felt a little…well “neglected” these past 2 years.
XSEED Games has posted a press release on their homepage announcing that they are pairing up with Marvelous Entertainment to publish Vanillaware’s upcoming opus - Oboro Muramasa Youtouden (朧村正妖刀伝) [Obscure Legend of Mysterious Sword Muramasa] in the US as Muramasa: The Demon Blade.
If you’ve played Vanillaware’s previous 2-D masterpiece, Odin Sphere, then you have a good idea what Muramasa is all about; 2-D RPG Action with uttterly draw-dropping graphics and gorgeous sound. Upgrading to the Wii should allow Vanilla to squeeze even more kick-ass in this time around.
XSEED also announced a pretty vague release date - 2009 - not much to go on. On the bright side, Muramasa will be hitting Japan before the end of 2008; hopefully I won’t have long to wait for a reason to hook my Wii back up.
