Tactical RPGs always get my attention. I’ve enjoyed the Fire Emblem series, Final Fantasy Tactics, and other tactical RPGs for years. The Indie scene is full of great ones too, and soon there will be another one added to the ranks.

Blade Prince Academy, developed by Angel Corp and published by Firesquid, will be released on March 7^th, 2024. The Tactical RPG will be released on Steam and uses a real-time-with-pause system. Here is what the press release says about the upcoming launch.

“The game immerses players in the role of Blade Princes, highly trained warriors who protect the city of Abjectalia. Players will fight against gangs, cults, and monsters unveiling the city’s secrets and becoming more and more powerful. But they will have to keep in mind that there is always a price to pay when you make a pact with darkness.

Blade Prince Academy features a satisfying combat system, blending real-time action with strategic pauses, and a colorful anime-inspired art style. The gameplay allows control over battles, encouraging players to strategize, plan attacks, and execute combos with the different characters. The dynamic combat system emphasizes dodging, strategic positioning, and environmental advantages, offering a rich tactical experience.

Beyond battles, players will have to manage the school life of their Blade Princes – the Academy serves as a hub: players can enhance their skills, recover, and build relationships. Social dynamics play a key role in team cohesion and mission outcomes. A diverse cast of heroes, each with unique abilities and backstories, enriches the game’s narrative and strategic depth. Forming strong bonds and using the pieces of equipment is crucial.

Exploration reveals Abjectalia’s secrets, from powerful artifacts to challenging bosses. The game’s combo system and character development options, including pacts and talent trees, add layers to gameplay.”

I’m really curious about Blade Prince Academy. It seems very interesting, and it almost feels like a blend of Persona and Fire Emblem. We won’t have to wait long though, March 7^th is on its way.
