Publisher Rocket Panda Games and developer Mages, Inc has announced the worldwide release of Phantom Breaker: Omnia. The game is an update of the 2013 game Phantom Breaker: Extra.
Phantom Breaker: Omnia follows the story of manipulated, vulnerable teens who were forced to fight each other thanks to the influence of the “Phantom.” The fighters have all been granted mystical weapons known as “Fu-mentional Artifacts.” The winner will have their wish granted.
The fighting between the mystical weapons has caused a massive distortion within time and space. Parallel universes began to have their boundaries break. This is exactly what the mysterious Phantom wants, as the broken seals will allow the man to unleash his true powers.
Players will get the complete experience with stories from both the original 2011 game Phantom Breaker plus Phantom Breaker: Extra.
The updated game will contain even more content from the original 2013 game. They include two guest characters, Kurisu Makise from Steins;Gate and Rimi Sakihata from Chaos;Head, plus two brand new characters who will debut in the new title.
Overall, the game will have 20 characters to choose from. Players can choose from three different fighting styles: Quick, Hard, and Omnia. Those modes will drastically change characters’ speed, power, and overall mechanics. Players will have a diverse cast of characters to choose from, each with unique skill sets and ultimate abilities.
Phantom Breaker: Omnia’s fighting system has gone through a massive overhaul. Combos and special attacks will be easier than ever to pull off.
For the first time, all of the characters will have optional English voice acting. The game will also have options for English, Japanese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Simplified, and Traditional Chinese subtitles and UI. Thanks to all of the additions of languages, more players across the globe will have the opportunity to enjoy the game.
In addition, all of the background music has been redone and remixed. Players will have the option to play the original background music.
Limited Run Games is planning physical editions for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch platforms. More information regarding the special console versions will be announced in the future.
Phantom Breaker: Omnia launches in 2021 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
