A Certain Magical Virtual-On and Secret of Mana are the highlights of this week’s Japanese game releases.
The first completely new Cyber Troopers Virtual-On game since Cyber Troopers Virtual-On Marz for PlayStation 2 in 2003, A Certain Magical Virtual-On is a crossover featuring characters from the A Certain Magical Index light novel piloting Virtual-On‘s Virtuaroid robots. In total, there are 13 playable characters / Virtuaroids.
Secret of Mana, which is launching worldwide, is a remake of the 1993-released Super Nintendo game.
