Today, Dragon’s Crown publisher Atlus released a bunch of new information about its upcoming Vanillaware action-RPG, including confirmation that the game will be controllable with both the directional pad and the analog stick.

Additionally, the company revealed that Dragon’s Crown will tote both English and Japanese voice acting, that each of the six playable character classes will have five outfit options, and that the names of each character, while randomly-generated at first, can be changed by the player as well.But most tantalizingly, a new batch of screenshots was also released, further showing off how beautifully Vanillaware’s newest game is coming along.Oh, but perhaps the best news is this: we here at IGN have been playing a final build of Dragon’s Crown for some time, in preparation for a week of exclusive content. Stay tuned to IGN throughout the week of July 8th – Dragon’s Crown week – for your very first detailed look at each character class, the game’s hub town, detailed information about Dragon’s Crown’s deep loot and equipment systems, a full tour of Hydeland’s first six levels, information on a bunch of enemies and bosses, and much more.
