News: The second game in the Taito deal is coming to the DS this Spring.

Ubisoft continues their distribution deal with Taito this morning as they've announced Lostmagic for the DS this Spring.

Lostmagic introduces a new spellcasting system using the stylus that can only be done on the DS. Ubisoft has also said that players will be able to connect to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and challenge other wizards in online battles.

Other features include:
Cast Spells With the Stylus! Ц Your stylus becomes your magic wand! Use different motions to unleash your magic.

Evolving Magic System Ц Players can combine up to three single spells to create more than 350 magic combinations using a symbol system exclusive to the DS.

Collect and Command Monsters Ц Learn to use each monster's special skill to gain the advantage in battle.

Use the Stylus to Open Up a New Frontier in RPGs Ц Experience strategy like never before! LOSTMAGIC's innovative RTS-type RPG makes full use of the unique capabilities of the DS. Control your units directly on-screen using a point-and-click interface that PC strategy gamers have enjoyed for years.

Challenge Others via Nintendo Wi-Fi connectivity Ц Create new characters and challenge friends over a Wi-Fi connection. In Dueling mode, players can test their magic casting skills and strategies against each other.

We'll have more on Lostmagic soon.
