Atlus talks about Deep Labyrinth

With the recent surge of role-playing titles hitting the DS, Atlus' Deep Labyrinth has received some major attention due to its development team, Interactive Brains, recruiting some key talent from one of the greatest RPGs of all time Chrono Trigger. What's even more interesting is that the game was originally designed for cell phones.

So while the game could've been brought to the PSP and enjoyed the added horsepower, the choice to go with the DS was easy. With the touchscreen capabilities and wild popularity the handheld has received so far, the game looks like it could be a big success on the platform. The game will feature two different scenarios for play, one brought over from the original cell phone title and the other being an all-new adventure created specifically for the DS.

One of the scenarios is much easier then the other one. From a pdf of the manual it states the easier campaign is to ease people into playing an rpg for the first time. While the real campaign is for rpg veterens.

Wow, this game looks pretty good. I wonder why I've never heard of it before. The DS seemed to be lacking in RPGs, so hopefully the games released this year will remedy that.
