[Update: The game has been officially confirmed by Square Enix, and it’s getting a worldwide release.]
Remember that curious new trademark that Square Enix filed both in the USA and Europe, for Heavenstrike Rivals?
Well, it appears that not only is the cat out of the bag, but it’s already available on the Google Play store. Featured above, you can view the debut trailer for the game as wel.
The new tactical RPG puts you in the war-torn kingdom of Lunnain, where nasty monsters called the “Fallen” have spewed forth down from the heavens. The people of Lunnain decide to take matters into their own hands and fight back against the heavens themselves.
You’ll be able to build your own army from hundreds of different characters that you can also grow and strengthen in between all of the battling.
There’s also a PVP leaderboard in which you can battle other players from around the world. Square Enix is touting the game as a tactical RPG with a “battle system designed especially for mobile devices” while still being “easy to learn but with deep strategic possibilities.”
Here are the game’s key features:
- Battle against players across the world in simple yet deep tactical battles, built especially for mobile devices
- Collect and train over 230 fully-animated units
- Embark on an epic quest across Lunnain to save the legendary Seven Sisters
- Climb the Sacred League to earn epic rewards
- Take part in regular events and weekend Arena competitions
- Features characters designed by Ryoma Ito (FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ADVANCE) and music by Ryo Yamazaki (FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES THE CRYSTAL BEARERS)
This clearly seems to be a premature listing of the game, but we do have all the aforementioned details.
We’ll keep you guys posted.
