Level-5 gives gameplay details in extended Mask of Miracle video

Last week's reveal of Konami's 3DS Layton look-alike, Doctor Lautrec, had us anxious to see how Level-5's own Professor Layton and The Mask of Miracle for the 3DS would compete. Turns out, the puzzle gods must have heard our pleas, because a new Japanese trailer for Layton's next chapter has been released, and it looks like Level-5 is ready to come out swinging.

Judging by the fluid animations and 3DS modeling alone, Mask of Miracle should be a visual treat on the 3DS. Throw in multidimensional puzzles and the series' trademark storytelling and this may mark Professor Layton's biggest evolution yet.

Professor Layton and the Mask of Miracle is slated for a Spring 2011 release.

The DS' two heavyweight puzzle men are working together. No conundrum is safe.
