Professor Layton and the Devil’s Flute to have bonus game from Brownie Brown

diabolicalbox1

Level-5 has revealed during its Vision Conference that Professor Layton and the Devil’s Flute will contain a bonus game created by Brownie Brown called London Life.

The fourth game in the series is set to be released in Japan on November 26, and the extra bit of fun is more RPG based, and revolves around making people happy.

It was announced for the cell-phone download service ROID, but surely Level-5 will reveal soon that it’s for the DS version as well. Hopefully at least by the time it leaves Japan anyway.

The event was live blogged by both Andriasang and 1UP, and snapshots of the London Life content are posted over on Aussie Nintendo.

Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box landed on US shores yesterday.
