Despite the less-than-hopeful message from Kitase concerning a Western release, Japan continues to get showered by details on Type-0, which is set for release on the PSP this Summer in Japan. Siliconera has details concerning l'Cie Gilgamesh, Eight from Class Zero and Suzaku's director of magic, a rather buxom Arecia.

Gilgamesh, who is a l'Cie from Genbu, plays an important role in the game and players will be facing off with him from time to time on the battlefield. He's clad in armour and wields a massive sword. Unlike previous iterations, he does not have six arms, for now anyways, but he does wield a rather massive sword, one that easily puts the Buster Sword to shame.

As for Eight, he's another student from Class Zero and a playable character. He's the class' Monk type character, using his fists and legs to pummel his enemies. It sounds like he's a bit of a pacifist, ironically, as he refuses to use weapons since he believes that they are tools that kill. He has a special attacked called Drift Ice Kata.

Not much is said about the director of magic at Suzaku, Arecia, but her role is to enhance magic.
