The wait is over for the PC version of Compile Heart's "Mugen Souls Z" video game. The game will finally be made available on Steam beginning Aug. 25.
To support the PC port of the 2013 role-playing game, Compile Heart unveiled on Aug. 16 a new trailer that gave players a sneak peek to the character roster. The PC version will retain several of the characters that made the PlayStation 3 version memorable, Dual Shockers reported.
Main characters Chou-chou, Syrma, Ace and Nao all featured dominantly in the trailer, Silicon Era revealed. Other characters flash by while the background song plays.
There are new stuff in store for PC gamers who purchase the game as well. Dual Shockers said that the Steam version will add on several free downloadable content (DLC). These DLCs include new costumes and gear for the playable characters. Several items for the game will also be made available through these DLCs.
The Steam version of the RPG is published by Ghostlight, a video game publisher based in Britain, Anime News Network (ANN) reported.
ANN also reported in July that the new PC version will have better graphics than those featured in the original PlayStation 3 release. The user interface has also been tweaked in order to accommodate the use of both the mouse and the keyboard.
Players could also make use of a PC-compatible gamepad in addition to the PC interfaces, ANN added. Because it is a Steam release, gamers can also take a shot at gaining achievements at Steam and the relevant exclusive rewards.
"Mugen Souls Z" was first released by Compile Hearts in Japan in 2013 for the PlayStation 3. The North American gamers and European players versions followed suit in 2014.
In the game, players take on the role of Lady Chou-Chou and her friends as they assist a new ally. They must help Syrma, the goddess, prevent the destruction of twelve worlds at the hands of this malevolent being.
The role-playing game is a direct soul to "Mugen Souls." Originally released to the PS3 in 2012, Ghostlight made available a PC port through Steam in Oct. 2014.
