Not to long ago we told you that we heard that Square Enix was working on a role-playing game with Wild Arms developer Media Vision for the iPhone. All of those words (except maybe “iPhone”) make my ears perk up, so I’ve been waiting for a full reveal. Now we have one: the game is called Chaos Rings, and it’s coming this year.
Here’s the story: Five pairs of warriors are forced to participate in a tournament where they will fight to the death. You’ll play through multiple scenarios focused on each pair, and only by clearing each scenario will you be able to see the full story. The battle system lets you attack enemies on your own, or in “pair” mode. In pair, you’ll cause greater damage, but you’ll also make both warriors more susceptible to damage.
Famitsu played it and says that they dug the 3D characters and the touch movement controls.
As you can see in the trailer above, this game looks fantastic for an iPhone title. Sign me up.
