posted on by Daryl Lee Hale
This week's issue of Kadokawa's Weekly Famitsu magazine is revealing on Thursday that a new entry in the RPG Maker (RPG Tsukūru) series, titled RPG Tsukūru MV (RPG Maker MV), is in development.
Famitsu confirmed RPG Maker MV will be available for Windows and Mac, and the resulting games that users create with the software will play on "multiple devices."
Famitsu also revealed that RPG Maker MV will offer side-view perspective (in addition to the previous front-view option) in battles, touch screen and mouse support, an increase in the maximum number of the database entries, and higher-resolution game screens.
The first installment of the RPG Maker series debuted in Japan in 1992. The program allows players to design their own custom role-playing video games.
