Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar

Kyosuke Usuta of Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar, created a very weird collaboration! The weapon is called "Crutches" and the outfit is "Violence Bandage". Though I have no idea how anyone can put so much weight on their bandaged foot, nevertheless you can obtain these items at a future date.

 

Exchange Mission

You may have noted four options in the demo that pops up when you reach the mission select screen.

There will be an exchange mission located on Neudaiz called "Light Planet's Offering Box". As with PSU:AoI, if you offer up items like Photon Drops "フォトンドロップ", the offering box may give you something back! May the holy light be with you!

We hated this box in PSU…

Snow Field Boss

Douga Dounga

A new machine boss  "ドゥガ・ドゥンガ" appears in the snow field! In the screenshots you can see a bridge as well as an ice version of the Bil De Vear. I can't tell if this area is a reskin, but at least it is visually different from anything we've seen so far.

 

Blog Updates and Interview

4gamer

Can you believe it! Last week the official blog took a day off! Anyway, since the demo is out, they aren't covering  any game changing details like they did before. This time they have switched focus to the Little Wing Early Experience Party.

Around different shops in Japan, Sakai will be giving out cards to get exclusive items with passwords. I have posted the codes in a previous blog post. I won't put up passwords for items you have to pay for though. Aside from the purchasable download items, I think the "Sonic Knuckle" weapon is the only item you need to purchase something to get the password for it.

Sakai was interviewed by several gaming magazine sites. Most of his responses were propaganda but he did say a few interesting things.

  • Interview Notes
    • There are a few collaboration items not revealed as of yet.
    • They plan on starting a collaboration plan.
    • This project will run for about half a year to a year.
    • You'll be able to download the items from the Playstation Store
    • Story Mode can be completed in 20-30 hours.

  • Reminder

    • If you weren't selected, next week is another batch of 50,000 people.
    • Internet multimode Demo runs from the 9th to the 30th.

PSPo2: Fun Fan Episode 4, Registering for Internet Multimode Lottery

Fun Fan Episode 4 was released early this morning. I haven't had the chance to go over it in depth but by tomorrow everything pertinent should be up. The video showcases a behind the scenes look at the development studio, and also a mission played by Sakai, Captain T, Rappy Child, and Arisa Noto. In the development studio footage you can see Ethan's new  Guardians Uniform, Karen's head, and a new mystery guy with a cane (Hyuga's relative?).

This post will increase over time…
