Dragon’s Crown Pro
Dragon’s Crown was rumored to be bound for PS4 in the build up to Tokyo Game Show, and it turns out the leak was accurate. An HD remaster of the PS3 and Vita hack-and-slash title from the developers behind Odin Sphere is indeed on the way. The gorgeous art style certainly hasn’t lost any of its charm and it looks stunning running in native 4K resolution on PS4 Pro.
For the uninitiated, Dragon’s Crown is a 2.5D side scrolling action RPG. Players can choose between six different characters from six different classes. It is a game with deep mechanics and and role-playing systems, but since certain character classes are much simpler and more accessible to play than others, newcomers to the genre shouldn’t be intimidated, even if it is technically geared more towards the hardcore RPG player.
The updated version supports cross-play with PS3 and PS Vita. The Japanese release also includes the English language voices, and the soundtrack has been re-recorded with a live orchestra. Dragon’s Crown Pro will be released on January 25 in Japan. There’s not yet any word on an international release, though.
