Peter Murrieta served as an executive producer and the head writer of Disney Channel’s “Wizards of Waverly Place” for its first three seasons, and he confirmed on the latest episode of the “Wizards of Waverly Pod” podcast that it was the creative team’s intention to make Selena Gomez’s main character openly bisexual.

Although the gaming publisher cites that this sequel will be an entirely new and upgraded experience from the original, the trailer doesn’t reveal much as to the actual gameplay. Once again we see the stunning cinematics that we love, but what we want to see, or rather experience, is how “open” this new gaming environment will be.
Personally, I really dug the battle system. I did not, however, like the leveling system. It was more for show than to actually choose your character path.
