Square-Enix has released new screenshots for the upcoming sequel Drakenguard 3 also known as Drag-on-Dragon in Japan. Drakenguard 3 is an action role-playing where you play as a female character named Zero.

Zero is a unique character in the game that has an artificial left hand and a flower that sprouts from her right eye. She also has a special power called Utautai, which lets her use singing as a magic.

Zero is also accompanied by her sister who’s name is One. Both of the sisters have the Utautai powers, but they’re quite different when it comes to personality.

Drakenguard is slated to come out sometime this year in Japan, however the Western release date is currently unknown.

Have a peek at the screenshots gallery below:

Let us know if you have played the previous games in the series and if you’re looking forward to playing Drakenguard 3 on the PlayStation 3 in the comments below.

Stay tuned to GamingBolt for more updates.

Drakenguard 3 has some mature themes and director Taro Yoko has revealed some information on it.

He talked to Dengeki Online’s writers about this and said it’s basically a ploy to gain more attention.

“If I make something half-hearted or normal, I don’t think it’ll beat the likes of Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest. I believe that it is what led to the wild pitch result of what we have,” he said.

“At the time, there was a popular anime that featured 12 sisters (Sister Princess) so I borrowed from that and made an ending with many sisters. However, the involved staff didn’t agree with the idea, so we had to kill off certain elements.”

Japanese developers can come up with some crazy stuff. Tell us what you think in the comments section below.
