Burlingame, CA. - February
19, in the year of our Lord 2013 - Natsume Inc., a
worldwide developer and publisher of family-oriented video
games, announced today it will bring Mystic Chronicles(tm) to
the PlayStation(r) Portable this summer. Developed by Kemco, the
game became an immediate cult classic in Japan. Now, Mystic
Chronicles is ready to storm North American shores this summer.
With its retro-style graphics, story-driven quests, and a
turn-based battle system, it's truly a perfect fit for gaming on
the run or on the couch.
"With the huge resurgence in popularity of retro-style gameplay
and graphics, especially in the RPG genre, now is the perfect
time to bring this fantastic game to North American PSP owners,"
said Hiro Maekawa, President and CEO at Natsume. "We're excited
about our latest offering, and will continue to reveal details

Guardian Beast system. This gameplay feature will have the
player assigning a godlike beast to each character, and setting
its AI to offensive, defensive, or healing. With lots of
Guardian Beasts to mix and match among your party members,
picking your favorite might be a quest in itself!
Mystic Chronicles follows the story of a mysterious youth, Lux,
adopted by a small village. Lux has just begun his training to
join the Guardians Guild, a society charged with ridding the
world of troublemakers. However, a chance meeting with a young
girl sets in motion a series of events that sets Lux on a far
more serious quest than just defeating ornery forest creatures!
Could Lux end up being the savior of the entire world?!
