Today Square Enix had news and a new trailer to share of the upcoming Mana mobile game Echoes of Mana.
First of all, we learn that the release date is set. The game will begin service on April 27, just a few days away. On top of that, pre-registrations have passed one million, which is certainly a good number.
Interestingly, the release date is common between the west and Japan, which is rather rare in this market.
The trailer is a beautiful anime cutscene featuring the game’s original characters on top of well-known ones from the Mana franchise.
You can watch it below.
Echoes of Mana (in Japanese the title is Seiken Densetsu: Echoes of Mana) will be released on iOS and Android.
Below you can read a summary of the story.
You awaken, surrounded by nothingness except for a single tree.
The Mana Tree—the very source of all life,
and yet, it is set to soon disappear…The last sanctuary in a place where all has already been lost.
Only the Mana Sword can save the Mana Tree and the worlds still weaved in its branches.
If only the sword were not lost as well…Guided by the Mana Goddess, you must venture into patchwork worlds, meeting friends and foes both familiar and brand new as you piece together memories through the Echoes of Mana.
If you’re not into mobile games, we know that Square Enix is working on a new mainline Mana title, but we don’t really know anything about it.
