[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.

Asteroth“How nice. Rather than just being your older brother, I want to say that I am your faithful servant.”The brother of Zerbolos, and father to two of the Demon Lords, Rushe and Perpell. He is a Demon Lord with a Melancholy Seal, and is the patron of the Great Satan Castle. Cerberus is his pet.	Lilith:“Zerbolos-chan, it’s been a while!”The grandmother of Zerbolos, with the Seal of Trappings, she died when Trillion appeared, and now haunts the halls of Great Satan Castle.
Baphomet:“It is the command of the the Great Devil King! I speak honestly and truthfully.”Zerbolos’ butler has cared for the protagonist from childhood. He is a walking compendium about Trillion’s existence.	Ragon:“As you commanded, I am here.”A stalwart war veteran who maintains calm even in the worst circumstances. He uses a rapier.
Gao:“Ha ha ha ha! No need to worry, Oh Great Devil King!”Another war veteran, he has incredible physical strength, and wields a ball-and-chain as a weapon.	Doctor:“Yes? Did you call me?”The doctor is available to heal combatants when they are critically injured. He also has dubious and experimental medicines.
Nurse:“Well, let’s head over to the booth and get everything screwed into place.”The nurse is an ornery individual, who assists the doctor.	Canyon Keeper“Recently the beast corps have fared well because of good training.”The custodian of the Thousand Blade Valley keeps the monsters there in check, preventing them from escaping their habitat.
Blacksmith“Welcome! What brings you here today?”The blacksmith lives in the town surrounding the Castle, and enhances the Demon Lords’ weapons with magical seals.	Uriel:“My name is Uriel. I’ve come to defend the Realm of Heaven as a great angel!”This angel is a nemesis of the underworld, one of God’s four major angels. It will reveal a “shocking fact”.

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.
