Nippon Ichi Software announced that strategy RPG Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero will be playable at Tokyo Game Show 2024 (TGS 2024). The TGS 2024 demo for Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero will feature roughly 15 minutes of gameplay, allowing players to experience the beginning of Marona’s story.
In the story of Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero, Marona and her Phantom partner, Ash, travel to various islands and solve the people’s problems. While coming home from a Chroma (contractor) job, Marona’s ship is attacked by a group of ghost ships known as the “Shipwreck Fleet.” Marona’s powers are stolen by a mysterious masked man, and Ash jumps into the fleet alone, causing the two characters to become separated.
It’s worth noting that the PC (Steam) version will launch at a later date after the console release. In addition, Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero will support English and French text languages with English and Japanese voice-overs at launch.
Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero will release in 2025 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam. Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via NIS America:
