Fairy Tail is a popular Japanese manga series, which by now has expanded to include an anime series, and a few video game adaptations, as usually happens to most successful manga series. But the previous video game entries for Fairy Tail were limited to the PlayStation Portable system. Nothing quite beats seeing your favorite manga or anime characters on a big TV, though, so Gust (of Atelier fame) and Koei Tecmo have teamed up to release a brand-new, full home console release with 2020?s Fairy Tail. We went hands-on with a fresh build of the game just a few days ago, and have our impressions ready.
Guild Time
Fairy Tail will follow the events of the manga, beginning from when the Fairy Tail guild is tasked with running in the Grand Magic Games tournament. All the characters fans would hope to see were present even in this early stage of the game. Protagonist Natsu, sidekick/source of humor Happy, celestial wizard Lucy, no-nonsense knight Erza, and many more showed up within the first seconds of our demo. The few cutscenes we saw were fully voiced in Japanese, while being subbed in English. A town could be visited, where NPCs handed out quests. For the time being, these were very basic fetch quests, but hopefully as the game is developed further, those quests will become a bit more involved.
