and hinder enemies. Many of their abilities affect multiple targets,

[male VO] -Beastmasters have the power to summon and control monstrous creatures.
They can also use their skills to capture monsters to fight alongside them during battle.

[male VO] -Gamblers tend to have luck on their side,
but are also prone to pushing it,
risking everything for a moment's glory.

These are just some of the characters you'll meet in the early stages of the game.
We'll be introducing more Asterisk holders in the future,
so please stay tuned. [music ends]
[noble orchestral music] We asked fans to provide feedback
on the demo released in March 2020,
and we received over 20,000 responses to our survey.
Fans mentioned the difficulty level and the controls in particular,
so we're now focused on making those adjustments.
A video summarizing the changes that have been made,
based on the feedback, will be posted soon on the official Nintendo YouTube channel.
And finally, Bravely Default II will launch on February 26th, 2021.
Pre-orders begin today on Nintendo eShop.
We hope you're looking forward to seeing lots more of Bravely Default II.

Or construct a massive ranch with lots of barns and coops? [cow mooing]
