Prior to today’s bit of news, not much of Star Ocean: The Divine Force had been seen beyond what was initially revealed during a PlayStation State of Play in October 2021. You can check out the new trailer for the video game for yourself embedded below:
Star Ocean: The Divine Force features the return of dual protagonists in the form of Raymond, described as “the captain of the space trading ship, Ydas,” as well as Laeticia, described as “the princess-knight of a kingdom on an underdeveloped planet.” Fate brings the two of them together to seemingly fight the dastardly Pangalactic Federation.
“From their earliest days in the Sol System, this organization has sought to bring peace and tranquility to the galactic multitudes,” the initial announcement said of the organization. “As their reach has expanded through the universe, many a hero has served under their banner; saviors to planets in need. But by the year 583 SD, things have changed. The once peaceful Pangalactic Federation is now known for assimilating planets against their will. Once standing for justice, they are now wreathed in darkness.”
