Last year saw the release of Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja for the DS, which resurrected the obscenely niche roguelike genre to produce a humorous and quirky dungeon crawler. The game was divisive among critics, with those that either loved the game's dialog and punishing old-school feel or those that felt that it was too hard and fundamentally not fun to play.
However, the game did well enough to earn a sequel, as Atlus has announced Izuna 2: The Unemployed Ninja Returns for the DS. The game will include more dungeons, items, etc. and will feature a new TAG system, which will allow players to bring two characters into a dungeon to execute special "TAG" attacks. The game is dated for July 22.

Funcom is busy gearing up for next month's release of Age of Conan, and today they announced that the MMO will have its share of preorder extras for gamers in North America, Oceania, and Europe. These include in-game items such as war mounts and weapons, retailer-specific items like game guides, and access to the game several days early for five dollars.
From Morten Larssen, VP Sales and Marketing of Funcom:
"We are very pleased with the reception Age of Conan has had in retail and we naturally hope that the early interest and our early access programs will materialize in an eventual success. The positive indications are naturally an honor, but they also bring a great responsibility. As we prepare the roll-out, we know our servers will be put to the test. We therefore hope potential players will aid us by signaling their interest as soon as possible so we can scale our servers and services accordingly.”
