Simply titled Summon Night: Twin Age for its North American release, the DS title feature action RPG combat more akin to the Ys series than anything previously featured in the series, promising a rich story, item crafting, beast conjuring, and the ability to forge relationships with your party members. The story revolves around a young summoner named Reiha and her summon beast friend Aldo, who embark on a quest to discover what mysterious force is corrupting the nature spirits. If you ask me, I blame society. Summon Night: Twin Age is due out May 20th for the Nintendo DS.

Bunch of crap:

About Summon Night: Twin Age From a very young age, the human girl Reiha displayed great aptitude for the magical art of Summoning. While still a child, her powers caused a terrible accident during a major Summoning experiment. It was reported that Reiha had died as result, but she survived, along with a young Summon Beast named Aldo that had been pulled into her world... Following the accident, the two children grew up together as brother and sister on the tropical island of Jarazi, among a race of people with beast-like features. There they learned to commune with the Nature Spirits that surrounded them. One day, the Spirits began acting strangely, prompting Reiha and Aldo to investigate. Their quest to find out who or what is behind the corruption of the Spirits will lead them back to the human lands where the cataclysm first brought them together...

Peep it.

Seems like cliche DS RPG crap, but I usually love Summon Night games, so I'll most likely be down for this.

Jesus fucking Christ. I clicked on this thread thinking it would be a PS2 game. I hate the God damned DS.

Haven't all the summon night games been portable though?

You're right. I was thinking of Echo Night.

Bad Yoshi, back in the cage, you shall not have your destroyed series this day!

Senility is a bitch.

Something about the visuals reminds me of Golden Sun.

That's a good thing.

Out here, yes, but in Japan it's been on PS1/2, and I think had some remakes on the DS.

looks pretty cool. multiplayer would be nice, though. i may pick this up when it comes out. i couldn't really get into the other games that came out on the gba.
