Original article [Tue 13th Dec, 2022 05:00 GMT]: If you’re a fan of tactical RPGs, you’ll want to take note of Redemption Reapers, coming to Switch in February 2023.

This dark fantasy tactical RPG developed by Adglobe and Binary Haze Interactive (ENDER LIRIES: Quietus of the Knights) is brought to life by industry luminaries like Masayuki Horikawa, known for working on the Fire Emblem series as a director and stage/level designer, and also for planning Kingdom Hearts III.

Here’s a bit about the story and what to expect from the gameplay, courtesy of the PR:

Hope fades across the land after the sudden appearance of Mort’s ruthless armies. As efficient as they are brutal, ghoulish forces descend upon civilizations, leaving destruction behind their nightly raids. As entire nations fall to the Mort onslaught, the Ashen Hawk Brigade, a contingent of mercenaries specializing in surprise tactics, bands together to fight the invading legions.

Command the Ashen Hawk Brigade in tactical skirmishes on 3D maps. Employ strategic movement, directing units across the battlefield before issuing orders to attack, defend, or deploy abilities each turn. Overcome seemingly insurmountable odds by mastering sneak attacks for extra damage or powerful combo attacks from multiple Squad members.

Make sure each member of the squad is in shape for the trials ahead by outfitting the group with powerful gear. Turn your hard-earned spoils of victory into resources to craft powerful weapons and armor. Upgrade your skills to unlock combat abilities capable of turning a motley crew of underdogs into fearless champions.

Fight your way through Mort and discover a gripping and coming of age story of wartime struggles. He witnesses powerful moments unfold between members of the Brigade during fully voiced cut scenes (audio recorded in English and Japanese) as the fighters learn more about their allies and the world around them. He guides the rise of the Ashen Hawk Brigade from obscurity to folk heroes as the members grapple with their dark past as a deadly and despised organization dubbed the “Faithless Reapers.”

It will also feature a “star-studded” voice cast including Kyle McCarley, Allegra Clark, David Lodge and Lucien Dodge. These people have contributed to series like 13 sentinels, NieR: Automata, dragon age, person 5, final fantasy xvFire Emblem and the Roads Serie.
