Star Ocean 5" and other notable games on sale this week!

Here is a roundup of the hottest home video game software releases this week!



First up is the PS4 RPG "Star Ocean 5 -Integrity and Faithlessness-".

Star Ocean 5 -Integrity and Faithlessness-" is the latest title in the "Star Ocean" series, which features a unique worldview that combines science fiction and fantasy, and exhilarating real-time battles. The setting of this title is Fake Reed, an undiscovered planet more than 6,000 light-years away from the Earth. The player takes on the role of Fidel, a young man living in the village of Stahl, who must stand up to save his village, which is on the verge of extinction after being attacked by the bandit group Aethalon. However, this is also the start of a journey into the days of battle that will also move the fate of the planet.


The game is a field-based RPG, employing a seamless system in which battles and events unfold without switching screens. The game is full of tension, with battles suddenly occurring during events, and the content and outcome of events diverging depending on the player's choices and battle victories or defeats.


The series' signature action-packed battles incorporate a three-way system (small attack < large attack < guard < small attack), allowing players to anticipate their opponents' moves and engage in highly strategic battles. The game also features a new "Role" element that allows players to set their role in battle, as well as "Item Creation," which allows players to create various items from materials and strengthen their equipment, making the game more challenging and rewarding.


A PS3 version is also available, but its release date has been postponed to April 28 (Thursday).


The game has been selling well at stores in Akihabara. Both pre-orders and general orders were selling well, as this is a classic title.
