Frontier has announced the development of LostWinds: Winter of the Melodias, the follow-up to last year’s award-winning WiiWare launch title LostWinds.

The power of the wind is once again in the palm of your hand as you wield your Wii Remote to use the elemental powers of Enril the Wind Spirit to protect and guide the young boy Toku. Players will explore all-new areas of the magical land of Mistralis and embark on an adventure to save Toku’s mother, lift an ancient Curse and thwart the evil Balasar.

Players are able to instantly transform Mistralis between summer and winter, harnessing the brilliance of nature: frozen winter ponds and waterfalls become deep, teeming summer pools and chambers in which to dive and unlock secrets, enemies can be frozen or doused, and the very air itself used to form snowballs or moisture-laden clouds.

Other new abilities include the cyclone, which can be used to transport Toku, smash powerful enemies and drill through the rocks of the Chilling Peaks and Melodia City areas.

“LostWinds: Winter of the Melodias will delight both new and returning players,” said David Braben, Chairman and Founder of Frontier. “Every aspect has been extended and polished, and the major new gameplay elements dovetail perfectly to give a fantastically rich, fun, innovative experience.”

Pricing and release date information will be announced at a later date.
