Vita action-RPG Soul Sacrifice (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/soul-sacrifice) has a ghostly co-op feature which lets you play on with your friends even after you're dead. Keiji Inafune, founder of developer Comcept, detailed (http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2012/12/03/ps-vitas-soul-sacrifice-leviathan-and-ghost-mode-revealed/) this week how 'Ghost Mode' lets you help your party post-mortem, albeit as a phantom.
In ghost form you have both your allies and enemies' status info to hand, and are able to strengthen party members and weaken enemies via the Vita's touchscreen. You're a bit like your party's guiding spirit, except presumably covered in a white blanket with eye holes cut out. Either way, it sounds like an intriguing way to keep players involved after death.
Inafune also went into the lore of a Soul Sacrifice monster called Leviathan, the beastie pictured above. Apparently Leviathan's origins relate to a tormented prince, and his wish to claim the throne by having his twin brother killed by a tortured pet crocodile. This is just one of the reasons we advise caution in choosing a crocodile for a pet.
Soul Sacrifice (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/03/soul-sacrifice-releases-in-japan-mar-7-2013-offered-in-vita-b/) hits Japan on March 7, 2013 (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/03/soul-sacrifice-releases-in-japan-mar-7-2013-offered-in-vita-b/). North American and European releases are confirmed, but publisher Sony Computer Entertainment hasn't disclosed their timeframes.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Soul Sacrifice dev reveals co-op Ghost Mode, Leviathan monster (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/soul-sacrifice-dev-reveals-co-op-ghost-mode-leviathan-monster/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Tue, 04 Dec 2012 14:30:00 EST.
