'Grand Kingdom' (ALL) Rolls Out Closed PS4 Beta - Trailer

by Rainier on May 3, 2016 @ 4:47 p.m. PDT

Grand Kingdom is a tactical RPG that revolves around Four Great Nations battling for dominance over the Resonail continent.

After the fall of the once-prosperous Uldein Empire over one hundred years ago, the Four Great Nations now wage war to claim dominion over the Resonail continent. Battles are no longer fought by honorable knights loyal to a nation, but by mercenaries who sell their services to the highest bidder.

As the leader of a mercenary squad, the player will lead their troops across a battle-scarred continent, overcoming obstacles and adversaries as they complete quests doled out by each nation. In doing so, they will unravel the mystery behind the downfall of a mighty empire.

NIS America will be running a one-week closed beta for Grand Kingdom on the PS4 beginning on May 3.

During the beta, players will have access to four character classes (Hunter, Fighter, Witch, Medic) and will be able to get a feel for the game by playing two quests from the single-player campaign before jumping online to join up to three online war battles per day.

Once the beta ends you’ll be able to keep your squad members and sweet, sweet mercenary money in the full release, but the online war scenario will be completely reset.

Interested players can register to join the beta.

The Online War offers the chance to immerse yourself completely in the world of Resonail and make decisions to impact the outcome of each war. During each war, you'll be able to support your chosen nation in a multitude of ways.

  • Go to battle and decimate the enemy's strongholds to wrest control of objectives from other nations, or defend your own forts during each war operation.
  • Vote for everything from what battlefronts to engage in, to ratifying treaties which set the rules of battle. Ever wanted to prevent cowards from retreating? Here's your chance!
  • Research equipment and armaments for your nation's blacksmiths to labor creating,
  • Determine Royal Orders during war operations to sway the tide of battle with everything from your nation's Guardian Beast, to increasing the frequency of armament support.
  • Send out your extra squads to fight on their own to support the war effort according to your directions! 

With an impressive battle system that combines fast-paced action with strategic planning, and featuring robust character creation and customization options, Grand Kingdom is a Tactical RPG the likes of which has never been seen before. Assemble a squad of mercenaries, form an exclusive contract with one of the Four Great Nations, and participate in war with other players online for the future of Resonail.

But remember- in this new age of war, there is only room for one Grand Kingdom.
