Conception II is an RPG with dating sim elements that lets you make Star Children who are born to fight monsters. Like in a normal RPG, these Star Children come in thirty different classes, such as swordsmen, magicians, thieves, and gamblers(!).

Now, Famitsu has revealed some more classes that are new to this sequel.

Dark Knight

The Dark Knight relinquishes all feelings of love and affection in order to become a powerful warrior. The Dark Knight is as solid as the Paladin, further empowered by an aggressive nature that allows no room for mistakes.

Diva

Endowed with a heavenly voice, the Diva is a girls-only class that supports her other party members with her vocal skills.

Mercenary

The Mercenary is a boy-only class and an adept warrior who manipulates his sword skills to destroy enemies without fail.

To fight enemies in Conception II, you must form three teams of three Star Children. When you put certain classes in a team, they can combine forces to execute a special team skill.

For example, when you have a Diva and a Minstrel in the same team, they can join their musical prowesses perform the skill Lucky March, which restores HP and increases the luck of their allies.

The Dark Knight and Mercenary can execute the team skill Guard Chain which simultaneously delivers a powerful blow, creates a defensive barrier, and increases the Over Chain Gauge, which speeds up all of your teams’ moves when it’s filled.

Conception II will be released for the PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS on August 22. A demo is available now for the Vita, whereas the 3DS will receive one on August 8.
