Dischan Media’s Mahou Arms will be released in early access next week, and today its director Saimon Ma shared some charming artwork to celebrate.
The artwork includes some beautiful character design sketches, and certainly contributes to underlining Mahou Arms’ rather unique style.
You can check it out in the tweets below.
If Ma’s art looks familiar, it has been featured in other games like Azur Lane and Arcaea.
If you’re unfamiliar with Mahou Arms, here’s an official description directly from the Steam listing. The game will go live in early access on April 29.
