In Genesis War, you'll find a grand narrative suitable for both new and returning players, with the promise of challenging tactical gameplay. It offers Fire Emblem-style grid-based strategic combat, where you build your adventuring party, before taking on enemy forces by moving your heroes around obstacles and engaging individual enemies.
Basically, think of it like a standard turn-based RPG mixed with typical D&D battles, where you manoeuvre your characters around a battlefield and take on your enemies one at a time. With a slated release sometime in April this year, while it may not be Total War, Genesis War certainly makes you think.
Genesis of something new
What also stood out to me was the art-style, as while Genesis War is familiarly 'anime' in design, it does offer an ever-so slightly more realistic or at least more grounded style than others. And in terms of gameplay, the fact that it actually has you think more carefully about where your characters go and what they do is already leagues above some other fare.
As for pre-registration, the usual considerations apply. The Milestone Event will offer growth rewards such as character selection and summoning tickets, as well as other goodies. All dependent on how many people sign up, of course. So if you think you'd be at all interested, it's well worth pre-registering for Genesis War on an App Store near you!
