Get the information below.
■ New Characters
Veruschka (voiced by Miyu Tomita)
A half-demon who belongs to the Lourdes Order, an organization that opposes the Curia that Alushe belongs to.
She was the subject of a half-demon laboratory experiment at a very young age, who was saved by the head of the Lourdes Order where she was about to abandoned. She lacks emotion due to her tragic experience in the past and suppresses her own will to believe only in that of the Lourdes Order that saved her.
By the order of the organization, she sets her sights of Alushe.
Veruschka as a Lily
Veruschka opposes Alushe, but after a certain event occurs, she will be able to fight alongside Alushe as a Lily.
—Veruschka wields daggers in both hands while fighting to thrust into fiends with terrific speed. She specializes in consecutive attacks, as well as those that lead the enemy by the nose.
—Veruschka’s active skill cuts through a vast range of enemies with blinding, connecting attacks. Her special skill can even kill a single enemy in a single shot.
■ A Reunion That Starts Time Again
—The “Curia” is an organization that protects the people from fiends. The Pope, the head of the Curia, gives Alushe, an agent, the mission of protecting Liliana, a saint.
—Alushe escorts Liliana back to the Curia, but there learns that Liliana is the “Bride of Time” chosen to be offered up as a sacrifice to the Queen of the Moon, and is given a new mission to escort her to the Queen of the Moon.
—While questioning whether or not she should sacrifice Liliana, her once childhood friend Ruhenheid appears before her.
—Ruhenheid belongs to the Lourdes Order, an organization that opposes the Curia. She confronts Alushe saying that the Curia is not going to help the people. Meanwhile, a fiend suddenly attacks Alushe and company, and Alushe dies.
—When Alushe awakens, she is in a suspicious laboratory. There, she learns that Camilla revived her as a half-demon after she died and that Liliana has gone missing.
—Using the blood of the legendary demon Arnice, Alushe was revived as a half-demon. Alushe wields the new power of producing a blood sword, which she uses to fight against fiends in search of Liliana.
—Alushe reunites with Ruhenheid at the hotel, which is the base you’re led to by Camilla. Even though their standpoints are different, the two use their bonds as childhood friends to work together in order to save Liliana.
■ Developing Your Subordinate Demons (Servans)
The subordinate demons that fight alongside Alushe will level up by using “Subordinate Demon Points” obtained when clearing quests. When leveling up, you can assign points to each parameter, including HP, attack strength, etc. to individually level up each subordinate demon.
Striker Subordinate Demon: Pitz
Pitz is a subordinate demon able to transform into a partisan. Before she transforms, she specializes in hit-and-away attacks from mid-range.
Striker Subordinate Demon: Eir
A subordinate demon able to transform into a great sword that deals big blows. Before he transforms, he specializes in multi-stage attacks that deal great damage.
Striker Subordinate Demon: Alice
A subordinate demon that transforms into a shield that can attack while defending. Before she transforms, she fights using a rabbit soldier that she summons.
■ Subordinate Demon Evolution
When each parameter of a subordinate demon reaches a certain value, its appearance “evolves” and its parameters also rise. Additionally, if all of its parameters reach “MAX,” it is possible to perform a “reincarnation” in which their max level rises instead of them returning to Level 1.
Tricker Subordinate Demon: Nero
Tricker Subordinate Demon: Fiyu
Tricker Subordinate Demon: Shalf
Stricker Subordinate Demon: Pitz
Striker Subordinate Demon: Eir
Striker Subordinate Demon: Alice
■ New Subordinate Demons
Striker-Type Subordinate Demon: Dure
A subordinate demon reliable in any situation with its attack speed and the hits it unleashes from its large build. Since its attack range is narrow, it needs to get within close range of the enemy in order to attack.
Dure can transform into a lance. Since it specializes in evasion and long-distance, you can fight with endurance.
Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon will launch for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita in Japan in February 2017. A western release is also planned, but has not yet been dated.
