Japanese developer/publisher Level 5 have unveiled a brand new title today. Called Fantasy Life, it's a game for the DS that looks a little, well, familiar.

Anyone who's played Mother 3 will look at these screenshots, look at Mother 3 and say "oh my, they do look similar". As well they might! Because Brownie Brown, a studio that helped HAL on Mother 3, are developing the game. Which is awesome. Know what else is awesome? Nobuo Uematsu is doing the music for the game.

Fantasy Life is a laid-back RPG that, from early descriptions (there's more details to come), sees you creating an avatar then just...walking around making friends and doing odd jobs. Sounds like an RPG made up of naught but side quests. Which sounds great!
