Spike Chunsoft began streaming a promotional video on Monday to reveal the new Grand Kingdom tactical role-playing game for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita consoles. The company plans to release the game this year.
The story takes place more than 100 years after the collapse of the Ordain Empire. In the single-player campaign, players play as a new leader of a mercenary unit that accepts requests from the world’s four main nations, each with their own story. However, at the same time there is a shadowy entity secretly moving behind the scenes, and this entity causes a major incident that shocks the entire continent. The game will also have online battle elements.
Characters and cast introduced from the four main kingdoms include:
- Ryoka Yuzuki as Gradius Ringland from Landearth
- Kenjiro Tsuda as Gram Berngard from Valqueur
- ShintarÅ Asanuma as Julius Wiseman from Magion
- Miho Arakawa as Precia Teller from Feel
The new studio Monochro is developing the game, Toshihiko Deguchi (Grand Knights History) is directing the game, Chizu Hashii (Blood+, Loups=Garous – The Motion Picture character designs) is handling the character designs, and Basiscape is handling the sound.
