Square Enix recently teased a new title code named “Project: RISING,” and now they have unveiled it as a new free-to-play mobile RPG: Samurai Rising. The game is already launching this spring in Japan and, in my honest opinion, looks very interesting. At first glance you can clearly see that the art style is very much akin to the one used in Bravely Default and certain Final Fantasy games (the DS remakes especially), but the trailer also shows that it’s trying to be something different. It has many elements of feudal Japan blended into its aesthetic, and the battle system looks to be real-time instead of turn-based. Unfortunately, we have no information about a Western release yet.
