The anticipation is finally at an end! NIS America is rolling out Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero today for PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Dive in and explore!
In this vibrant strategy RPG, you’ll embark on a thrilling journey to save the day with Marona, a uniquely talented young girl who has the astonishing ability to communicate with Phantoms. Venture across the oceanic expanse of Ivoire to lend a helping hand wherever it’s needed. But when a fleet of ghost ships threatens, Marona, alongside her new companion Apricot, is tasked with gathering the legendary crew who once vanquished these ghastly adversaries.
In Phantom Brave, you’ll have to recruit Phantoms, confine their spirits to various objects, and blend them with powerful Gadgets. You can even merge them directly with Marona to activate extraordinary abilities and bring down the feared Shipwreck Fleet!
Our protagonist, Marona, is no ordinary girl—her gift for speaking with Phantoms, spirits of those who have departed, sets her apart. Accompanied by her loyal Phantom friend, Ash, she sails through Ivoire, offering assistance wherever it’s needed. But when ghost ships appear and separate the duo, Marona must team up with Apricot to rally the celebrated crew that previously defeated these spectral invaders.
Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero spices up the traditional Strategy RPG formula with gridless, free-roaming maps. You’ll call upon your Phantom allies in battle by "Confining" their souls to objects in the environment. The choice of object impacts their abilities, adding an intriguing layer of strategy. Moreover, by using special gadget items, Phantoms can "Confire," performing attacks that are slow but devastatingly powerful. Marona herself can "Confriend" with Phantoms, allowing her to transform and unleash unique attacks!
Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero Features:
- Play It Your Way: With over 50 types of units to choose from, you can build a unique team and approach battles on your own terms—only your creativity sets the limits!
- Phantom Possession: Engage in tactical, turn-based RPG combat using the Confine system, which lets the Phantoms you’ve befriended possess items and join the battlefield by your side.
- Light-hearted Adventure: While Marona is on a mission to rescue her cherished friend Ash, the journey is filled with excitement, fun, and the charm of newfound friendships.
