Nintendo has been focusing on New Play Control games of late, but that's going to change shortly. The latest Shounen Jump offered up first solid details on Takt of Magic, a first party Wii game that's now set for May 21 release in Japan.

In Takt of Magic, you take control of Orwell and Sharlot, two childhood friends who, for a reason that's currently unclear, face off on the battle field against monsters and enemy soldiers.

Jump promises an in-depth look at the game's "new style battle system" and "deep story" in its next issue, but this issue provides a couple of hints about the game. You hold the Wiimote like a wand and draw out shapes to perform magic. The game includes over 100 spells. In addition to casting magic, you also control a battle party, whom you direct on the battle field from an overhead perspective.

A May 21 Japanese release means further online details should be on the way shortly. Stay tuned!
