Level-5 has announced that the next games in both the Fantasy Life and Professor Layton series of games will in fact land on Android and iOS, as announced at Level-5’s Vision 2015 event this week. Layton 7 and Fantasy Life 2 will alight both mobile platforms in Japan this coming summer season.
Layton 7 was initially slated for a Nintendo 3DS release as well as on smartphone but there hasn’t been any mention of it hitting the 3Ds on the game’s main website, with the new game going more on skill and reasoning as opposed to earlier games in the series which are known to be rather hard. It turns out the game would be card based as well; could this be signaling a deviation to a more casual gamer style of gameplay?
As for Fantasy Life 2, it will be heading directly to smartphones by letting players to take one of 12 lives to pursue, with more focus on village building, like collecting more villagers with multiplayer with up to three more players. Sounds a bit like many town building simulation games already available on mobile, but we’ll be the judge of that once it’s available. Now where’s the english versions?
