Songs open the door to a new battlefield (Tactics RPG)

The newest title in the “Fairy Fencer F” series is now available as a Tactics RPG. The main characters of the series are all here, and there are also many unique new characters such as “divas,” fencers, and sorceresses.

In this title, “song” is the key to the game, and divas can use special skills to strengthen allies within their range. The game features “Dramatic Resonance,” a system unique to this title, in which the songs of allies and enemies overlap to create a mash-up of songs, allowing players to feel an unprecedented level of excitement.

The area where songs overlap is called the “Resonance Area,” where the effects of the songs are dramatically increased. Players can enjoy strategically crafted battles in which both friend and foe are strengthened in high-risk, high-return situations.

In addition, a new brand “Galapagos RPG evolve” has been launched for the release of this title.

Galapagos RPG”, a brand dedicated to RPGs that has evolved independently, will deliver new games never seen before as “Galapagos RPG evolve” with further evolution.
