The ESRB rating description for the highly anticipated tactical JRPG game, “Unicorn Overlord,” has been released, providing insight into the game’s content and justifications for its T for Teen rating. The rating highlights elements such as blood, revealing female character designs, and the use of strong language, including the appearance of the word “bastard.” It suggests that the gameplay will be intense and possibly unsuitable for younger audiences.
“Unicorn Overlord” offers players an immersive and regal odyssey, blending overworld exploration and a unique battle system, all presented in the iconic Vanillaware art style. Players can expect a vibrant and enchanting world to traverse, where they will have the opportunity to forge an army of over 60 distinct characters. The game promises an unforgettable experience, allowing players to carve out their legacy across five illustrious nations and defy destiny.
The story of “Unicorn Overlord” is set on the continent of Fevrith, where five nations are consumed by war orchestrated by a general from Cornia. Players assume the role of Prince Alain, who flees the subjugation but later becomes the leader of the Liberation Army with the goal of liberating the fantasy kingdom from evil. The game’s strategic gameplay involves building an army, liberating areas, and engaging in turn-based combat against enemy soldiers and mercenaries. The battles are depicted with animated sequences showing units using various actions, accompanied by cries of pain, impact sounds, and blood-splatter effects. Additionally, some female characters are designed with revealing outfits and jiggling breasts, adding a sensual element to the game.
“Unicorn Overlord” is scheduled to launch on March 8, 2024, for PlayStation 4 (digital-only), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Fans of tactical JRPGs can anticipate an engaging and visually stunning experience, but they should be prepared for intense battles, mature themes, and provocative character designs.
