With publishing duties being handled by Atlus in North America and NIS America in Europe, Lost Dimension has been announced for release on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita this Summer in North America and Europe.
A tactical RPG, Lost Dimension has you playing as the main protagonist of SEALED – a group of psychically gifted warriors – acting as their commander on the battlefield. After combat, the warriors wait back at base camp, where you can chat with them to improve the relationships.
Those relationships will come in handy, as a unique ability to read minds can be used at certain points to find a traitor among the warriors. As Atlus PR Manager John Hardin puts it, “And as you inch closer and closer towards the final boss, you’re forced to kill one of your teammates — hoping against all hope that you figured out enough clues along the way to be able to correctly identify which one of them is actually a traitor.” If you pick wrong though, the traitors will turn on you during the final boss fight.
For those of who want to replay Lost Dimension in New Game+ mode after beating it the first time, the traitors are randomly chosen each playthrough.
Answering some questions on the PS Blog, Hardin revealed that the game will cost $39.99, you’ll be able to buy it at retail or through the PlayStation Store, and it’s PlayStation TV compatible.
