Emberstoria, a new mobile strategy RPG from Square Enix, launches exclusively in Japan on November 27th. The game, available for pre-download now, features a dramatic storyline set in the world of Purgatory, where resurrected warriors known as Embers battle monsters. The game boasts classic Square Enix flair, with a bombastic narrative, impressive art, and a diverse cast of characters voiced by over 40 actors. Players build their own flying city, Anima Arca, and engage in a compelling story.
While a Western release isn't currently planned, the game's potential global launch is a topic of much speculation. Recent news about Square Enix transferring operations of Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent to NetEase raises questions about the company's future mobile strategy. This new release could offer clues. Emberstoria's future release plans, whether it remains Japan-exclusive or sees a global launch perhaps through NetEase, will be highly revealing about Square Enix's mobile game strategy.
The situation highlights the frequent disparity between Japanese mobile game releases and those available internationally. For players feeling left out, a curated list of desirable Japanese mobile games unavailable elsewhere is a great alternative.
