A few months ago, Idea Factory International announced their plans to release Compile Heart’s JRPG Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force in western markets later this year. Not exactly a sequel, this game is an enhanced port to the original Fairy Fencer F, which was released on the PlayStation 3. Following Compile Heart’s past work with Megadimension Neptunia VII and Omega Quintet on the PlayStation 4, Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force will also be available exclusively on the latest generation of gaming platforms.
While none of these four are actually new characters to the series, Idea Factory International have shared some character profiles for the four returning main characters:
Fang
Our always-hungry hero who meets Eryn after he pulls a sword from a stone. He sets off on an adventure (toast in mouth if you so choose) at Eryn’s request. Despite his lazy attitude, you can rely on him!
Eryn
A fairy who dwells in Fang’s sword. She has amnesia and cannot remember anything about her past but she is determined to collect all the Furies of the world!
Tiara
A Fencer on a mission to revive the Goddess. She has a serious personality and speaks in a high-handed manner. She teams up with Fang after tricking him into following her. She can be terrifying when she’s angry, so don’t mess with her!
Cui
Tiara’s cute fairy. Although she only says “cui, cui,” she has no problem communicating with Tiara.
Developed by Compile Heart and published internationally by Idea Factory International, Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force is set for release sometime in “Spring 2016” (or Autumn 2016 for those in the Summer hemisphere).
About Fairy Fencer F
Fairy Fencer F is reborn as Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force for the PlayStation 4 system! Continue your adventure through three new story paths: The Goddess story, the Vile God story, and the Evil God story. Play as Fang and his gang as you face off against a new, evil organization, meet new fairies and Fencers, and collect the Furies scattered across the world. Each path leads to a different outcome, so choose wisely. Alongside new content, you can now have up to 6 characters on the battlefield at a time! That’s double the fairies and the fencing! With so many characters, players will be allowed to balance gameplay with three new difficulty settings: Easy, Normal, and Hard.
