"You place your characters on a chart, with your primary character in a central spot and the other characters in surrounding support sports. The primary character is the one that you control when entering the dungeons.

The support characters grow alongside the primary character, advancing differently and earning different skills depending on the structure of the chart you're using, their position on the chart, and on job of the primary character. As the primary character explores the dungeons, the support characters will come in for assists, acting as shields if you're about to incur damage from an enemy or trap.

When not in a dungeon, you're able to freely swap characters between support and primary roles. Additionally, the game offers a variety of charts, some allowing you to set more support characters, and some giving added effects to certain slots."

The game will also include ad-hoc co-op multiplayer, as well as an option to switch between standard and 8-bit soundtracks (Sega's 7th Dragon has a similar feature). NIS hasn't announced plans to release Classic Dungeon in the U.S., but I suspect they will eventually seeing as they were to bring over the Holy Invasion Of Privacy, Badman series.
