A very soon-to-be released tactics RPG from Vanillaware, who have basically no bad RPGs. Mechanically, it's Ogre Battle for the modern era, which brings me more joy than I can easily verbalize, as somehow basically no one took that specific implementation of a strategy RPG and copied it past those games.

Demo trailer, which is available on consoles. The demo is the entire game but time limited to 5 hours in-game (menu time does NOT count), and then your save carries over into the official release.

I'll have to take a look! I do like strategy RPG's, and 13 Sentinels was an -amazing- visual novel/strategy game. Just a stunning story.

Sadly, it won't be coming to PC.

Which is kind of hilarious, given how much success JRPGs and adjecent games have had on the platform in recent years.

But mostly sad.

Unicorn Overlord Physical Copies Sold Out at Retail in Japan

Spoiler: Yeah it's great. Probably quality wise something like 70% Gameplay vs 30% Story but it's solid enough for what it gives you in the writing while you get to then engage with the battle system.
