The era of myths gives way to great turmoil…
War looms dark over the Rowetale mainland… Commanding a disciplined army and versed in modern magic, the Empire is a power to be reckoned with. Despite the combined strength of the Alliance, they were largely powerless to resist the Empire’s advance.
The continent was ravaged by the devastating war between the Empire and The Alliance. However, one nation remained unaffected by the chaos, The Kingdom of Alletain on the isle of DioField, situated off the north-western coast of Rowetale.
Jade, the precious resource used to power modern magic and technology, is believed to be abundant on DioField, bringing it to the attention of both the Empire and the Alliance. The Kingdom of Alletain looked destined to have its soil stained with the blood of battle.
The legendary Blue Fox mercenaries will leave their mark on history
The royal house of Shaytham has ruled the Kingdom of Alletain, and the isle of DioField, for two hundred years. Suddenly their position is suddenly thrown into uncertainty by the conflict raging on the mainland.
A band of elite mercenaries calling themselves Blue Fox arise amidst the flames and the chaos, whose legend will echo through ages yet to come.
Fredret – possessed with great strength and a desire to right the course of the nation
Iscarion – a progressive thinker with a warm and virtuous heart
Waltaquin – a powerful magic user with equally potent charisma
Andrias – the brains of the company who is always planning one step ahead
Will the name “Blue Fox” come to signify hope or darkest tragedy? Find out when The DioField Chronicle releases on PS5 and PS4 later this year.
