The man in charge of the 3DS lead title – Kid Icarus: Uprising – Masahiro Sakurai has told C&VG that Pit now feels like a new character and that there will be lots of different weapons in the game. The more the merrier!

“One thing I can talk about is that Pit uses a lot of weapons and this is a very important aspect of the game. There’s a wide variety of very different types of weapons. Each one is very unique and presents a wide range of gameplay possibilities and a multitude of ways to approach different enemies with different weapons. All of this weapon variation makes you feel like you’re playing the game with a brand new character because the feel is so varied when you use different weapons.”
