    The Alliance Alive (3DS) | HD Remastered (PC/PS4/NSW) - October 10, 2019

    Developed by FuRyu (The Legend of Legacy)
    Spoiler: show
    The story follows nine protagonists and progresses in a way that players switch between characters. The story will develop from the perspectives of these characters, who each have different standpoints and environments. The game is set in a continent ruled by magic beings and divided by the effects of a “distortion.” Rain worlds and fire worlds are just a couple of the hostile worlds that players will visit.

    The magazine introduces the nine characters:

    • Tigi – Self-Proclaimed Prodigy Professor
    • Vivian – Daughter of a Noble Magic Being
    • Ignace – Vivian’s Butler
    • Galil – Boy of the Resistance
    • Ursula – Galil’s Childhood Friend
    • Rachel – Guild Mercenary
    • Barbarosa – Ghost Soldier
    • Jean – Knowledgeable Mage
    • Renzo – Well-Informed Young Man

    Suikoden Creator Returns As Scenario Writer For Alliance Alive On 3DS

    This week’s issue of Famitsu magazine has revealed more on The Alliance Alive, an upcoming 3DS title with a story written by Suikoden creator Yoshitaka Murayama, who hasn’t worked on anything major since Tensho Gakuen Gekkoroku in 2006. The Legend of Legacy Cattle Call is the developer behind it as well. {Thanks, Hachima.}

    The Alliance Alive is being made as a “New Classic RPG,” an RPG developed using the latest technology. It takes place in a world where those with magical powers have ruled the world for several hundred years. The world itself is split into several zones, with each one having their own cultures, and a story about humans who fight against the control of magic beings.

    Players will take control of the protagonist and travel across the field map, with battles starting from symbol encounters. There’s a total of 9 main characters, each with their own objectives, before they connect for a common cause.



    Here’s more on the nine protagonists:

    Garil: A young man who belongs to the “Night Crow” resistance group. He has a gentle personality, but is passionate with a strong core.

    Ursula: A blonde-haired girl who is part of Night Crow. She has a fresh personality but doesn’t talk much about her intensions. You’ll catch her ordering around Garil.

    Barbarosa: A magic soldier of the Night Crows. Her life was once saved by Ursula’s father, to whom she swore loyalty.

    Vivan: A daughter of a noble magic family. She has a calm personality and is a historian with an interest in the human world.

    Ignus: Serves Vivian as a the magic family’s butler. He respects rule and rank, with a personality that sort of suits demons.

    Rachel: A mercenary hired by a guild of mages. Rachel is a warmhearted girl who acts the moment something comes to mind.

    Renzo: A young man of the Night Crow. He’s a good source of information, has an optimistic personality, and is able to judge things calmly.

    Jean: A mage of the anti-demon guild of magic. He’s observant, and doesn’t act on impulse.

    Diggy: A girl who researches the Black Flow. She invents all kinds of things, and claims to be a professor.



    Here are some highlights from an interview in Famitsu:

    The Alliance Alive comes from the result of research on the demand around the world, something that only they could do, an RPG with a balance in both story and gameplay.

    They wanted to make a world with a sense of variety, making it fun to simply walk around.

    There was a focus in going with a world map, something a bit daring these days. They wanted to make a world map that is similar to the ones we’ve seen in the past, where you picture the map in your head as you travel.

    Encounter rate and the distance between towns and dungeons are some of the adjustments that are being made to make things as stress-free possible for the players.

    There will be vehicles that expand your field of activities.

    A reason for having nine protagonists is because they want players to be able to find favorites for themselves.

    Great swords, spears, and other weapons will be customizable.

    There’s a battle feature called “Awakening” that lets you learn new abilities and get stat increases.

    Stronger enemies increase growth rate more, and there’s also another element that further increases growth rates.

    Parties consist of up to five members. There’s also a “Guild” system for powering up your party.

    Heading West Early 2018
    Prepare for a tale of adventure fraught with danger. In this new title from The Legend of Legacy developer Furyu Corporation, Atlus today announced the upcoming release of The Alliance Alive for Nintendo 3DS in early 2018.

    With writing by Yoshitaka Murayama, a vision realized by director Masataka Matsuura, beautiful game designs from Kyoji Koizumi and a stunning score delivered by acclaimed composer Masashi Hamauzu, players will experience the nostalgia delivered by these JRPG greats. With gorgeous world exploration,' an intertwining story involving nine memorable characters, and strategic, turn-based gameplay mechanics, players won’t want to miss this return to JRPG excellence.

    One thousand years ago, Daemons invaded the world of Humans. They subjugated Humanity and created the Great Barrier to separate the realms. The world was thrown into upheaval, and the Dark Current was born. It carved a cross-shaped swath across the ocean, swallowing countless cities in its wake. Humanity was decimated. Hundreds of years later, Daemons rule atop a hierarchical society. However, the time for resistance has come. The world is about to change yet again...

    Built on a sprawling world replete with numerous secrets to discover, players will need to establish and unite guilds throughout the four realms while battling the Daemons. Use the “Ignition” system, a part of the turn-based combat that allows for deep customization and nuanced gameplay, to reach an enhanced state and deliver devastating Final Strikes. In The Alliance Alive, players will need to keep their wits about them and think strategically to win each fight!

    Thoughts on this one from people following it?

    Played a little bit of Legend of Legacy. Was ok and took some getting used to, but hoping this one improves it further.

    It's official and will be released worldwide in Fall 2019.

    Along with remastering the game into HD, FuRyu also reworked The Alliance Alive‘s GUI to include everything on one screen, as the original game used both of the 3DS’ screens.

    Lastly, FuRyu announced that the PC version in particular of The Alliance Alive HD Remastered will be published by NIS America in Japan, which could mean they will handle the distribution of the game worldwide. This means there’s a very high chance the game will be featured in Nippon Ichi Software America’s new announcements live stream on March 11, with other highly possible games to get localized like Destiny Connect. The original The Alliance Alive ‘s English version was handled by Atlus USA.
