Puella Madoka Magica Magia Exedra (we'll shorten that to Magia Exedra from now on) is adding a new character, the fan-favorite Ren Isuzu, to its roster. This follows a hugely successful pre-registration campaign boasting over half a million sign-ups.
Magia Exedra is a fully 3D turn-based RPG based on the popular anime series. The game brings the cult classic's darker take on the magical girl genre to mobile. Ren Isuzu, a shy yet powerful magical girl whose bonds with others fuel her strength, will be a welcome addition for fans.
This new character announcement is a pleasant surprise, as the pre-registration campaign only promised bonus content (wallpapers and similar items) for existing characters.
The Challenges of Being a Magical Girl
It's somewhat ironic that Puella Madoka Magica, lauded for its intelligent and often subversive approach to the magical girl trope, has become synonymous with its extensive merchandising. However, this is unsurprising given its widespread domestic and international popularity.
Magia Exedra's shift to a fully 3D environment from the 2D battle systems of previous adaptations is a noteworthy trend in mobile gaming. The game promises visually stunning, effects-rich battle sequences that will undoubtedly appeal to fans of the original anime's animation style.
