The phantom of the omnia is here
Publisher Rocket Panda, in association with developer MAGES, is super excited to announce that cult slugger Phantom Breaker is to receive not only a brand new content update, but also a long-awaited western localization. Phantom Breaker: Omnia will launch March 15, 2022, on PS4, PC, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, priced at $39.99.
“Today, the team is ecstatic to announce Phantom Breaker: Omnia,” said Rocket Panda co-founder M. Panda in a statement to Destructoid. “The addition of new characters, features, and updates to the game has taken more time than anticipated – but for our first self-published game we had to ensure we’re producing the game to the best of our ability. The Phantom Breaker: Omnia project has evolved far beyond a simple port and has become an enhanced and complete Phantom Breaker experience. The fire in all of our hearts will be burning next March”
Check out the heart-burnin’ action in this (very silly) new trailer:
Phantom Breaker‘s wild storyline recounts the tale of the mysterious “Phantom,” who emerges in Tokyo one dark day and manipulates a gaggle of adolescent gals into a hard-hitting fighting competition, promising to manifest the wildest dreams of the tournament’s winner. Each entrant becomes the recipient of reality-defying powers known as “Fu-mension Attacks,” which the Phantom deceptively hopes will bring about an interdimensional collapse, rendering the mysterious being the omnipotent ruler of all of existence. Anime.
Phantom Breaker: Omnia will be a fully revised and rebalanced edition of 2011’s Phantom Breaker: Extra, which launched in Japan on PC, consoles, and the arcade market. Omnia will not only include two brand new characters, but will also sport an overhauled and customizable fighting system, a fully remixed soundtrack, and dual-language voice-acting, which is a first for the series. Phantom Breaker: Omnia will also represent the mainline series’ first official release outside of Japan, (notwithstanding 2013 spin-off Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds.) As such, Omnia will be a perfect jumping-off point for brand new fans, as well as an exciting update for veterans. For those veterans, the wait is almost over.
Phantom Breaker: Omnia launches March 15, 2022 on PS4, PC (Steam) Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
