posted on by Jabulani Blyden
Bandai Namco Entertainment began streaming a new video on Thursday for its upcoming Ansatsu Kyōshitsu: Assassin Ikusei Keikaku!! (Assassination Classroom: Assassin Raising Project!!) Nintendo 3DS game. The video introduces the students of Class 3-E and shows gameplay of their individual unique skills.
Bandai Namco Entertainment previously streamed the second commercial for the game on Sunday. The video previews the game's theme song, "3-nen E-gumi Nuru Nuru Ondo" (Class 3-E Slimy Marching Song).
Bandai Namco Entertainment will release the game on March 24.
The game turns the player into a student in Class 3-E, where he or she has to deal with school events, taking tests, and assassinating Koro-sensei between enrollment and graduation. The player trains with Nagisa, takes on missions with Karma, and interacts with classmates.
The first copies of the game will include download codes for four bonus exclusive 3DS themes and for a dress-up item for Koro-sensei, the latter of which is inspired by the Kochikame manga's main lead Kankichi Ryōtsu. First copies will also include a "Korosensei-kuji," a raffle ticket for the chance to win "gorgeous goods." The "Assassination Classroom 'experience' action" game will cost 5,700 yen (about US$47) at retail.
The game's title references Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Shinji Ikari Raising Project and other games in the same genre.
