Recently, Square Enix announced via their YouTube channel that the newest Star Ocean title is planned to be released this summer for both North America and Europe.
Developed by tri-Ace, Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness is the fifth game (respectively nicknamed Star Ocean 5) in the space-faring action JRPG series. The series began back in 1996 when the first game was released in Japan for the Super Famicom. Marking the series’ 10th anniversary, Square Enix is looking to release the game to much expected fanfare.
As seen in the video above, we have a character introduction trailer for hero Fidel Camuze. The protagonist features some series traditions; blue hair, his primary weapon being a sword, and receiving a call to action taking him into space.
Along with releasing some new trailers and screenshots, it was also revealed that the PlayStation 4 only title will feature dual-audio for the Western release. The option for dual-audio will allow players to play with either Japanese or English voice-overs. Fans will have the opportunity to enjoy the voice work of their personal preference.
Star Ocean 5 is also scheduled to release in Japan for the PlayStation 4 on March 31st and a month later for the PlayStation 3. Square Enix will be revealing its Western release date soon.
