Shining Blade

Sinister plans begin to unfold within the Dragonian empire, beginning with the revival of the villainous leader of the Dark Dragon. The empire is being sapped of its spirit energy, dragons begin to rampage throughout the lands, and the world becomes engulfed in turmoil. Only Rage, a young soul blader, can bring an end to the chaos by finding the legendary Shining Blade. With the help of his soul blade "Yukihime" and various companions, Rage embarks on his greatest quest yet.

Shining Blade utilizes an all-new battle system, "Concerto", which relies on strategy and cooperation between the party members. Rage may be accompanied by up to four allies during battle, and can make use of swords, bows, and magic to defeat enemies. The game also introduces a new class, the songstress, who perform songs to give the party a special advantage in battle. Additionally, characters also have the ability to strengthen relationships through event scenes or by using group skills in battle.
