Marvelous Entertainment continues their media campaign promoting Hero 30 for PSP with a new CM.  This one is pretty long, clocking in at 3:15.  In that amount of time you could play the entire game six times!

It starts by outlining the basic premise of the story, conveniently enough in English.  After that a brief intro is given on the 4 modes the player can select: Hero 30, Princess 30, Demon King 30, and Knight 30.  Next there are some credits, and then a 3D, pixelated cutscene to wrap everything up.

I did some research on Demon King 30 after watching his video.  His scenario is an RTS, and he controls units he summons which can be divided into 3 categories. The units are either power, speed, or shoot.  Each type has their own benefit in certain situations.  When the strength of these 3 unit types reaches max, 4 powerful elemental units (pictured left) can be summoned for an especially powerful and showy attack.

Demon King 30 is fighting to release a curse set upon his lover Milenia.  I thought he was evil, but I guess he has no relation to the demon king that is casting the powerful spell threatening to destroy humanity.

There isn’t as much information concerning the fourth and final mode: Knight 30.  From what I saw in the video it appears he quite literally carries a mage around.  More on this in the future, since according to the video, info on Knight 30 will be released in May just before the game’s release.

I totally loved the 3D pixel cut scene, I am hoping there will be more scenes like that in the game.  Although I was  reminded of the opening movie of Dissidia: Final Fantasy, in which everyone saves Terra.  Why do female characters require saving?  Terra is pretty badass, and Princess 30 doesn’t seem like a pushover…  Maybe I just hate the Onion Knight.
