Square Enix has announced a new multimedia project titled Shin Kaku Gi Kou and the 11 Destroyers, which it will include a mobile RPG, novels and comics! Developed in collaboration with Straight Edge including the scenario writer and artist behind A Certain Magical Index, the mobile RPG looks really promising. Check out the details below!
In a sandbox-based world, players can gather resources to build bases or craft items (somehow reminds me of Minecraft). The game story will be fully voiced by a star-studded cast of voice actors. While during battles, you can summon Shin Kaku Gi Kou to aid you and clear up the battlefield. The game supports multiplayer co-op modes too!
Here is an overview of the story (thanks Gematsu):
In a land of swords and magic, there was a creature—an evil god—with extraordinary power. People feared its existence, but at the same time were captivated by its power. They wanted that power. Their dangerous wish would eventually lead them to break the evil god’s horn and create “Shin Kaku Gi Kou,” huge magical weapons infused with the horn.
One of these weapons alone has enough strength to overpower an entire country and its army, and there are 10 of these across the vast continent. However, one day a severely injured Moebius, the strongest Shin Kaku Gi Kou user, entrusted his “power” to a young boy named Miyabi who happened to be present.
There is an 11th user out there that no one knows about. You must protect everyone before the out-of-control monster destroys the entire continent, he was told.
Releasing in Japan next year (2019), the mobile game will be free-to-play for both Android and iOS. These are all we know, you can visit the official site for more details and updates!
