LINK UP WITH FELLOW ADVENTURERS IN FANTASY LIFE – COMING TO NINTENDO 3DS ON 27th SEPTEMBER

19th August 2014 – Explore the vast open world of Reveria alongside friends and share your discoveries with a host of local and online features available to players of Fantasy Life, the much-anticipated role-playing adventure from LEVEL-5 coming to Australia and New Zealand on 27th September for Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems.

Link Mode, an online communication tool discovered by paying an in-game visit to the Guild Office in the town of Castele, is a feature that – once activated – allows you to connect with friends when they are playing Fantasy Life at the same time*, and exchange messages and valuable tips during gameplay. To keep your friends informed of your in-game exploits, Link Mode also contains a notification setting to communicate your achievements, and ‘Applaud’ the landmarks reached by others.

As part of the game’s wider co-operative features, players can get together with up to two friends via either local wireless or online multiplayer and explore the world of Reveria together, with online multiplayer incorporating its own chat feature for players to communicate while – for example – on a hunt, or foraging for precious items! So whether you are in need of reinforcements to defeat a powerful monster, or are seeking to trade certain items with friends via an in-game Exchange Box, taking part in co-operative play with friends will help you accumulate much-needed experience and items to aid in your adventures.

In addition, with the game supporting StreetPass functionality, watch out for other players turning up in your game as citizens of Reveria after a StreetPass encounter. Befriend these fellow players, and you may even receive new items. Meanwhile, in order to capture your most exciting moments in Reveria, you can also unlock the Snapshots function, which will enable you to capture in-game screenshots by pressing the START button – just another way to show off your adventures to others!

Prepare for an epic adventure set in a world filled with dry deserts, snowy mountain peaks, pirate-infested coves and more when Fantasy Life, an RPG containing dynamic life simulation elements, releases in Australia and New Zealand on 27th September for Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems. With the local and online multiplayer features, or by sharing notifications in Link Mode, explore the furthest reaches of Reveria together with friends, or simply at your own pace.

About Nintendo 3DS & 2DS:
The Nintendo 3DS & 2DS range comprises three systems – Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL (both with a 3D feature) and Nintendo 2DS (no 3D feature). Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems offer Parental Controls so that parents can control the content their children can access and the games they can play. Additionally, devices with a 3D feature allow parents to control the level of 3D their children can view and also provide a 3D depth slider which lets players turn off or adjust the level of 3D they want on the 3D Screen. Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems also feature two built-in screens for different functionality, a Circle Pad which provides a full 360 degrees of direction, and a built-in motion sensor and gyro sensor. These devices are equipped with three cameras (two of which are facing outwards to allow the taking of 3D pictures), house a 2GB/4GB SD Memory Card and are compatible with AR Cards which come packaged with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems. Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems are also backwards compatible with all existing Nintendo DS games, which can be played in 2D on your Nintendo 3DS or 2DS.
