3D Dot Heroes has Female Dots Too

3D Dot Game Heroes may have retro themes, but it's pretty forward thinking in one sense. In addition to a male main character, you can choose to take control of a female character.

Each of the three character types, Prince, Hero, and Scholar have a female equivalent. In the Prince's case, the female version is called a Princess. The other classes keep the same name.

The character classes in 3D Dot Game Heroes have different strengths. The Prince class is well balanced, offering average physical and magic attack strength. The Hero has strong physical and magic strength. The Scholar class isn't particularly strong, but does have great magic power. For all three classes, the female version of the character has weaker physical attacks.

In addition to a look at the female characters, From's latest screenshot update on 3D Dot Game Heroes gave us a look at the game' weapon options and a couple of giant bosses.

For the weapons, we can see a spear, a sword called "Dragon Killer" and another weapon called "Orichalcum."

The boss pics give a look at Dark Knight, who can make quick movements, and a giant snake whose weak spot is its tail.

From also detailed the game's official soundtrack today. Set for release on November 25 through Aniplex, the single disc soundtrack will retail for ¥2,310 and include a special sticker and picture label for its first print run.

The game itself sees release on November 5.

From doesn't have a booth at the Tokyo Game Show this year, so we'll have to pray that the game ends up on display at someone else's booth.
