Koei Tecmo Release More Details on Fairy Tail JRPG

Following a captivating stage show reveal at Tokyo Game Show 2019, KOEI TECMO and developer GUST Studios have delivered further details for their highly-anticipated upcoming magical JRPG, FAIRY TAIL.

FAIRY TAILbased on Hiro Mashima’s best-selling manga and anime series of the same name, follows the spell-binding plot from “The Grand Magic Games” story arc — enabling gamers to re-live, or experience for the first time, the exciting episodes of this fan-favourite storyline. Not only will they be able to experience stories previously told in the manga and anime, but they’ll even be able to enjoy never seen before story and quest elements.

Throughout their journey, players will be able to form a party from a selection of over ten iconic characters, including: the fire dragon slayer, Natsu Dragneel; the celestial mage, Lucy Heartfilia; the ice-make mage, Gray Fullbuster; the fairy queen ‘Titania’, Erza Scarlet; and the young sky dragon slayer, Wendy Marvell. With a wealth of guild members to recruit to their party, players can form their dream team – even including an unlikely group of allies for their own unique adventure.

The fiery and intense magical battles from the series are breathtakingly brought to life in FAIRY TAIL’s environment; with a diverse range of magic available for the extraordinary characters to wield. Renowned moves from the series light up the screen, with some characters such as Natsu being able to take advantage of mode changes – like utilising the eye-popping Lightning Fire Dragon Mode! In addition, some guild members will be available to support in battle, including the Fairy Tail Guild Master, Makarov Dreyar, who can be called in to provide powerful aid on the battlefield.

In FAIRY TAIL, completing battles and quests will not only level up party members, it will lead to character bonding scenarios, provide options to upgrade the guild, and eventually raise the ‘Guild Rank’ – enabling players to take on more challenging missions in their quest to become the greatest guild in Fiore!

The FAIRY TAIL JRPG is slated to release in 2020 on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, and Windows PC via Steam®.
