Ragnarok Odyssey ACE detailed, out early next year on Vita, PS3

Ragnarok Odyssey ACE, the revised and expanded version of the original Ragnarok Odyssey, is landing early next year in North America and Europe on Vita and PS3, and today XSEED Games has dropped a few extra details on the title.

The game can be played with up to four players, supports Cross-Play, and the Vita version will ship with a bonus soundtrack CD with 25 songs - including a composition from Nobuo Uematsu called “Roar of the Black Dragon.”

It contains new skills, items, and quests, including a new 100-floor dungeon called the Tower of Yggdrasil as well as the Japanese version’s expansion patches.

The 1.10 patch, which launches in Japan this week, adds new features including daily quests, online rankings, log-in bonuses, random card draws, and special rare random card draws. The game won't launch with it, but will be free sometime post-launch.

Players with existing Ragnarok Odyssey saves can import their character’s physical appearance, voice, job class, and cards - except for those equipped to clothing at the time of the transfer and neither do cards acquired by “near”.

If you’ve downloaded any of the original game’s DLC, you can bring it over to ACE just by re-downloading it from PlayStation Store.

New Trophies are included and those earned from the original will stay with the original.

Both the PS3 and Vita versions of Ragnarok Odyssey ACE will retail for $39.99.
