by Rainier on May 11, 2007 @ 2:05 a.m. PDT

Atlus, U.S.A. announced Growlanser: Heritage of War, a special edition release dedicated to all the loyal fans of the series containing commemorative bonus materials which will be unveiled in a special press announcement scheduled for later this summer!

On an island continent shrouded in darkness and bounded on every shore by an impassable veil, war rages among desperate inhabitants fighting for survival. A mysterious famine has ravaged the land, leaving its denizens to struggle over what little fertile land remains. There is no safe haven; land that war has left untouched is still threatened by the Screapers, fierce and powerful monsters steadily encroaching on the cities of men. Hope is fading - who will rise to save this dying land?
