The box art features the main playablecharactersin the Action RPG,Yorha 2B,Yorha 9SandYorha A2, in dramatic pose, giving the cover an appropriate apocalyptic feel.
Japanese Playstation Store purchases will also net you the very cool “game machine” pod skin which allows you to change the appearance of your pod to the classic original Playstation console.Podsare support machines that will follow the characters around, providing long range attack support as well as movement support for the players. Players can hang from them, glide around the environment and use them to reach heights. If you have fond memories of the original Playstation and are Japanese inclined this could be just the thing for you.
