As if in response to the Relayer’s invasion, the Starchild, the successor to the will of the stars, awakens.
The first trailer released today, Friday, May 28th, starts with a meaningful scene of an astronomical clock, narrated by Masanori Kusunoki, who also plays Yodaka in the game. You can check out the battle scenes of the Starchildren’s beloved “Stellar Gear”, which has the will of the stars in it and confronts the hostile Relayer, in high quality images that only PS5 can provide.
A simulation RPG that uses four different types of aircraft and a variety of tactics to lead your troops to victory!
The game uses turn-based battles in which each unit is activated for battle. The “Stellar Gear” that Starchild boards is divided into four types: Assault, Snipe, Tank, and Scout. Each type has a different attack range and weaponry, so you’ll be required to position yourself according to the battle situation.
In addition, you can experience tactical situation battles where certain allies become decoys by using “hate” to attract the enemy’s attention, and where allied planes can claw back the enemy.
This is the first new simulation RPG for the PS5 from the development staff that won worldwide acclaim for “GOD WARS”.
