Resonance of Fate is a Japanese RPG coming from the developers of the Star Ocean series. This time around, tri-Ace is bringing their role-playing expertise to the steampunk world, as well as tossing in a load of additional hours in comparison to their previous games.

After a drastic change in Earth’s environment, the citizens of the planet have taken shelter in a huge device known as Bazel, which in short is a huge tower with towns and districts where the people live. The upper class live in the rich apartments of the top and the lower class live in the districts surrounding the tower. When Bazel malfunctions is when the problem begins.

It’s already been said before that Resonance of Fate takes 80 hours to fully explore, so we know the environment is obviously huge. How long the game takes is a different story. A “standard” playthrough of the game will take gamers a good 50 to 80 hours to complete without sidequests. Doing everything in the game will cost you about 150 hours. That’s one big game.

The game’s battle system sticks to RPG’s roots and goes turn-based. You’ll select who you want to attack and when you attack you’ll get a nice animation to go along with it involving flips, jumps and turns. Like Valkyria Chronicles, you’ll also have a certain number of steps you’ll be able to take as well per turn.

So far, the game seems like it’s looking good and with so much content, we’re looking very forward to this one.

    Heck, even the PSP Star oceans still have flare.
    I’m still playing Second Evolution.

    Excellent, thats just the sort of length I like! I love Tri-Ace, so this is obviously a day 1 purchase for me.

      who is your favourite character in The Last Hope, mine is Myuria.
      I loved the exporation and the Combat system was better than ever.
      I admit the voice acting was terrible but overall the game was heaps fun.
      Maybe if or when they port it to PS3 like Tales of Vesperia has, they’ll add the Japanese voice over but not getting my hopes up for a PS3 version just yet.

    I liked all the characters really, but a favourite would probably be Reimi or Faize. Myuria was great too!

    I actually only picked on Second Evolution a few days ago and am playing through it now – its really great!

    I dunno if the PS3 version of last hope will have JP voices, I know a lot of people would like it though. I must admit I got used to the voice of Lymle/Sarah etc by the end but I know a lot were put off.
