Back in March 2023, Level-5 returned to North America and Europe. They announced the games returning including the puzzle detective Professor Layton. The team will give more details on Sept. 24th along with their three RPG projects.

Level-5 April 2024 Delay

Four months ago, Level-5 postponed their April game showcase, Vision 2024. Studio director Akihiro Hino believed it would be a shame to show what they had already revealed from the previous year. He decided his team to work further into their games’ vision before presenting more information.

This included the possible successor to Yokai Watch, To The World’s Vision. Level-5 gave a public apology to their North American fans on Twitter (now X). In exchange, they hosted a new event for Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road’s Beta Test Demo.

Last night, on Sept. 1st, Level-5 announced their project showcase will resume on the 24th. Their official website states which games will be returning for an update. To The World’s Children will be making its debut trailer during the showcase.

Professor Layton: The New World of Steam

Since the past year, Professor Hershel Layton has shown to be in the heart of America during its steampunk evolution. There, he visits his apprentice, Luke Triton. Luke is no longer a child and has grown into his teenage years. For Professor Layton’s veterans, The New World of Steam takes place after the events of Unwound Future.

In the Japanese trailer for The New World of Steam gameplay, Level-5 will preserve its touchscreen gameplay from the Nintendo DS. Unlike the 3DS title Katrielle Layton and the Millionaire Conspiracy, the overworld and characters are full 3D. Puzzles will now be conducted within the investigation field, taking inspiration from the mobile sequel Layton Brothers.

DecaPolice

DecaPolice is Level-5’s newest detective RPG. In Deca City, players will be playing as the detectives assigned to solve cold cases in a simulator. DECASIM replicates Deca City and the events that happened in its real-life counterpart.

Follow Havard Marks and his team to investigate crime scenes. Gather clues and witness testimony to see how they connect to the case. But beware of the criminals who will try to stop them. The RPG elements come within the battle for each member has the skills to assist Harvard. Harvard uses his gun to attack enemies in a sequence while other detectives assist his shot.

Fantasy Life: The Girl Who Steals Time

Another returning Level-5 title is Fantasy Life, the job-board RPG. The Girl Who Steals Time is not a new sequel. The name comes from the 3DS DLC. The campaign takes place after the player has defended Reveria from the darkness. The caretaker Pam discovers a magical door that leads to Origin Island.

Level-5 will be expanding the fundamentals of life simulation and combat with the Nintendo Switch’s hardware. Fantasy Life offers players a list of jobs to master specific skills. No skill could exist without the other. There were limited life activities as the player could only bond with NPCs during quests on the 3DS.

Inazuma: Victory Road

Inazuma Victory Road follows the series’ new protagonist, Unmei Sasanami. After witnessing the loss of a friend during a soccer match, Unmei transfers to a new school to forget the incident. However, his new school life draws him back after being rescued from a group of bullies by Joji Sakruazaki. He ends up resurrecting Nagamuro Junior High’s soccer team. Victory Road’s Open Beta Demo offers familiar Inazuma Eleven gameplay in a more open space.

Now operating on PC and PS4/PS5, Level-5 utilizes the 3D space to remake the soccer field gameplay. The camera angles change between field players to the goalie’s vision offering players a better visual to execute their powers against their opponents. In the gameplay trailer, out-of-field battles will still operate in 3v3. Training will now be more interactive the overworld instead of a cutscene determining your stats randomly.

To The World’s Children

To The World’s Children is believed to be Yokai Watch’s spiritual successor series. The series’ 4th game has been confirmed to be region-locked in Japan. This is mainly due to the Yokai Watch games did not attract an audience as it was seen as a failed Pokemon clone. Its anime counterpart was seen as superior for its comedy.

Level-5 presented a short announcement trailer for the game on Nov. 2023. Its name is not official yet but the trailer’s title name on says ‘Ghost Craft’. Its concept is different as a wisp fuses itself with a cat statue and pillow. The Yokai Watch community speculates that spirit-crafting monsters could be the core gameplay.
