Maxim makes his triumphant return to North America.

The Lufia games hold a special place in the hearts of many RPGFans, but the series has been absent for seven long years in North America. Even then, the last Lufia game released domestically was widely regarded as lackluster, so the wait for a quality title has been especially agonizing. Fans should be pleased to know, then, that Natsume is finally bringing the series back to English-speaking audiences with the release of Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals on October 19th.
The game is an action-RPG re-imagining of Lufia II, featuring six controllable characters, dual-screen Sinistral battles, and the series' staple tool-based puzzles. The game will be available for the Nintendo DS at a suggested price of $29.99 USD. Be sure to read our impressions from E3, and check back for a review of the game in the coming weeks.
