Sega Announces New Phantasy Star Game - Idola: Phantasy Star Saga

Sega announced a brand new game in the Phantasy Star universe today titled Idola: Phantasy Star Saga and it's for mobile devices. With the announcement comes a gameplay trailer which shows turn based combat similar to other Gacha hero collectors like Fate/Grand Order.

Given Phantasy Star's JRPG roots, Idola will likely be heavily story driven. The game's protagonists are Stella and Yuri. Stella is the leader of the Aries Knights, an order that fights monsters known as Idola while Yuri is an orphaned boy that joins the group.

Idola: Phantasy Star Saga is being developed by the same folks who worked on Valkyria Chronicles and Phantasy Star Online. While Phantasy Star Online 2 is never coming to the West, there's a good chance Idola will, though there's been no official word on that just yet.
