This week’s Famitsu has revealed School of Ragnarok, a totally new arcade game from Square Enix.
While details are scant, it’s decribed as an online game, featuring one-on-one battles that pan out in “tactical 5D action”. The last time I heard a term consecutively above 3D, it was one of those gimmicky arcade games on the Wildwood Boardwalk.
The game’s staff are made up of Drakengard staff:
- Producer: Takamisa Shiba (Lord of Vermillion, Drakengard)
- World Setting & Scenario: Kazutaka Kodaka (Danganronpa)
- Character Design: Kimihiko Sakato (Drakengard, Terra Battle)
- Composer: Keiichi Okabe (Nier)
School of Ragnarok is set to hit Japanese arcades later this year.
We’ll keep you guys posted. I’ll be watching this game on a personal level, for Okabe-san alone.
