Vanillaware’s New Game, Unicorn Overlord, Has Already Captured My Heart

The developer behind 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, revealed their next video game is a tactics RPG called Unicorn Overlord during the latest Nintendo Direct.

I’m a relatively simple gamer/man. You give me a tactical RPG utilizing 2D style art, and I’m sold. My love for the genre is pretty well known, and combined with the Wargroove 2 release date trailer, I’ve been in hog heaven today.

Even without that, however, Unicorn Overlord looks like a blast. Vanillaware has a penchant for crafting cult favorites with a unique style an story approach, so I’m pretty much all aboard the hype train for this one.

Fight against fate and embark on a royal adventure to regain your reign in the timeless RPG Unicorn Overlord. From the creators of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, Unicorn Overlord combines overworld exploration and an innovative battle system in the iconic Vanillaware style. Traverse the vibrant world, cultivate a grand army with over 60 distinct characters and grow your renown throughout the five nations in this epic fantasy experience. Liberate your kingdom and reclaim your destiny!
