WorthPlaying writes, "Despite the name, Magna Carta is not about the famous English legal document of 1215 but a completely unrelated franchise from Korean software developer Softmax. Magna Carta: Tears of Blood was a fairly obscure RPG release for the PlayStation 2 in late 2005. Unusually enough, it was actually a sequel to a Korean-only PC RPG known as Magna Carta: The Phantom of Avalanche, although the two are unconnected except for some recurring names. Their selling point was actually artwork by Korean artist Hyung-Tae Kim, and their connection had more to do with them sharing Kim's art than anything else. MagnaCarta 2, now all one word, continues this tradition. It's completely unconnected to the other games in the series but serves as a vehicle to show off more of Kim's designs, and despite being billed as a sequel, it's its own game."
