No word on localized version of free-to-play strategy action title to be released for North America and Europe markets.

Sega announced that its action strategy hybrid title Samurai & Dragons will be localized in English and will be out in Asia.

Spoilers: there are samurai and dragons in the game.

Made for the PS Vita, the game is slated for a spring 2013 release in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. There is no word on a North American or European release at this time.

Samurai & Dragons is an action strategy hybrid title where players fight to gain control of the world of Gaia=End. The game is divided into three parts: an action game where players fight different monsters with different character classes, a strategy simulation where players build their base, and a card battle segment where players fight against opponents to expand their territory.

Well the fact that it is free to play takes away much of the edge of criticism I had for this, specifically the generic title which ironically probably FLATTERS what little the game has to offer.

This is called Kingdom Conquest for mobile devices. Kinda wonder why it got a name change for the Vita release. Anyone with an iOS or Android device can enjoy it, and its sequel, for free.

I wish there were a comprehensive list of every Vita game in development right now. I don't know about half of these games, I swear.
