[UPDATE: our translator has provided the cast’s names and quotes for each character.]
Developers Compile Heart continue to update the website for their upcoming strategy RPG, Makai Shin Trillion. We’ve rounded up the new details, screenshots, and artwork below. (You can see some video of gameplay here, and more screenshots here.)
This title is the first in a new series of video games that fall under the banner Makai Ichiban Kan—literally, “Number One House in Hell”—of which Death Under the Labyrinth is the second game.
Makai Shin Trillion (translatable as Destroyer Trillion) is due to release in Japan on May 21, as a Playstation Vita exclusive. No Western localization has been announced for the game.

Supporting characters
The game will feature a fairly hefty cast of side characters, most of whom will have a supporting role, aiding protagonist Zerbolos in his mission to destroy Trillion.
Leveling
The Demon Lords each have a class and, as they level up, they’ll have the opportunity to take on a new one. If they do, they don’t start from zero, however, as their powers are stored in the “Ruler’s Ring” and are thereby transferred to the next class. When they change classes, a percentage of the Demon Lord’s experience will carry over, as will their accessories, and the demon seals they’ve earned.
In addition to improving through training and power-ups, the Demon Lords will be able to practice their tactics against a dummy version of Trillion (pictured above). Faust will produce this sentient training dummy, called Doll, which simulates the game’s archnemesis, and the Demon Lords will get to go up against it in multiple training sessions. The doll will transform into a reasonable replica of Trillion and imitate its moves, including the tells of its special skills; however, the dummy is still just a faux replica—it’s only about half as tough as Trillion itself.
On top of the training benefits that the Demon Lords receive from fighting it, players will earn money and other bonuses, depending on how well they score in these mock fights.
