Next Next Layton Game Revealed

Layton and Luke in Devil's Flute.

Level-5 is set to give Professor Layton and the Devil's Flute the big red carpet premiere treatment tonight, just ahead of the game's release tomorrow. But before that, word has leaked from Famitsu about the next Layton game.

Titled Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, the followup is said to feature some big system changes from Devil's Flute. Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino told the magazine that the game has something to do with the mask worn by villain Death Call in Devil's Flute.

Even Famitsu was unable to get a full reveal on the game, with its scoop limited to just the logo and a piece of artwork. The art shows what appears to be a carnival, with Layton and Luke looking on from the side.

A release for the second part in the new Layton trilogy is set for Fall, 2010.

Hino will, of course, be at tonight's premiere event. Perhaps he'll share a few additional details.
