Madoka Magica: The Battle Pentagram growth elements, downloadable costumes detailed
Swimsuit, pajamas, and other outfits incoming.
Namco Bandai has shared new details on Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Battle Pentagram ahead of its PS Vita release in Japan next Thursday, December 19.
As you battle against witches, your Magical Girls will continue to grow stronger. By clearing missions, you’ll gain experience points and level up. Various parameters—like HP, strength, vitality, and such—increase when you level up, and you’ll obtain Strength Points, as well. You can occasionally get Spell Books, too. The higher the mission difficulty, the more experience and Spell Books you can get.
By using Strength Points, you can increase specific parameters for your magical girls. By using Spell Books, you can level up your special magic and raise its power. During missions, the effects of the support skills utilized can also be strengthened automatically.
In the “Witch Barrier of Samsara” mode, you can replay missions you’ve already cleared. If battles become too difficult and you can’t advance the story, you can try leveling up here. However, your Bond Points won’t increase in this mode. Also, after clearing a mission, missions with new difficulties will be newly added.
Namco Bandai is preparing costume downloadable content for The Battle Pentagram. Madoka, Mami, Sayaka, Kyoko, and Homura will each get a Mitakihara uniform, gym uniform, pajamas, swimsuit, and a fifth costume different for each girl.
