February 2, 2006 - Ubisoft announced today it will publish Taito's Lostmagic for Nintendo DS in North America and Europe this spring. Designed by Yoshiharu Sato, Lostmagic incorporates RTS elements and DS stylus spell-casting into an RPG adventure.

Along with using the stylus to cast magic, you'll be able to combine single spells into more than 350 combinations, as well as collect and command monsters for use in battle. The game uses a point-and-click interface similar to RTS titles, and supports multiplayer action via Wi-Fi connectivity.

In Lostmagic, the world's peace is threatened by a new evil. The only hope lies with the wizard Isaac and the seven magic wands left behind by the creator.

"Lostmagic brings role-playing games on the DS to a new level, capitalizing on the innovative and unique gameplay abilities such as casting spells with the stylus and the global connectivity of the Wi-Fi mode," said Ubisoft's Tony Kee. "Ubisoft is proud to continue in its tradition of bringing cutting-edge games to gamers worldwide."
