Circle Entertainment announced very early this morning via Twitter that their upcoming game Ambition of the Slimes will be released in the Nintendo eShop on the Nintendo 3DS this Thursday, August 11th.

The strategy role-playing game, developed by Altairworks and published by Flyhigh Works in Japan, is set to be released in both North America and Europe this week.

The game will come packed with English, Japanese, Chinese Simplified and Chinese Tradtional.

In the game you play as both humans and slimes, which can take over and possess humans in battle. The game looks very much like a Final Fantasy Tactics style game, with characters reminiscent of the Witch and Hero series.
