    Acquire's Class of Heroes is graduating from PSP to PS3 later this year, despite the old-school dungeon-crawler not ranking very high in the PSP popularity contest last year. Still, the RPG series is supported by a devout clique of players, and while Atlus has passed on publishing the PSP sequel in North America, an apparent PS3 version is in development for Japanese release. Class of Heroes 2G is presumably an HD port of the PSP game, and Siliconera reports the game may have full voice acting, an expanded character edit mode and is planned for release in mid July. Considering the old-school gameplay and relatively simplistic presentation, Class of Heroes 2G would make an ideal candidate for a PSN release in North America. That is, if anyone decides to localize it.

    Atlus' upcoming PSP RPG, Class of Heroes, has been delayed due to a "show-stopping bug." Atlus' Aram Jabbari, manager of PR and Sales, explained in a press release that Atlus "must delay the game to resolve the problem and deliver a final product to our fans that lives up to the high standards we aspire to and that they deserve."We're not exactly sure what the bug could entail, especially considering this game was originally released in Japan last year as Ken to Mahou to Gakuen Mono. Did the localization process add new content to the game? Perhaps -- we don't know how well the old-school dungeon crawling gameplay will resonate with American audiences. Some changes may need to be made for the US release.Class of Heroes' release date is now June 9th, 2009 with an MSRP of $39.99.%Gallery-42755%

Atlus is promising up to 80 hours of gameplay, with over 1300 items to discover over 75 maps. Alchemy is a key part of the game, encouraging players to create their own items.%Gallery-42755%
