KEMCO Drops A New Tactical RPG Eldgear Full Of Magic And Mystery

KEMCO's newest tactical RPG, Eldgear, plunges players into a world brimming with ancient technology and high-stakes conflict. Explore Argenia, a fantasy realm transitioning from a medieval past to a magical future, where powerful artifacts threaten to reignite a devastating war.

Eldgear's Story: A World on the Brink

Argenia, a land teeming with numerous nations vying for control of newly discovered, magically-charged ancient ruins, is on the precipice of another catastrophic conflict. Following a brutal war, a fragile peace prevails, constantly threatened by the potential for renewed fighting.

Enter Eldia, a global task force central to the game's narrative. Their mission: to prevent these powerful ancient weapons and machines from igniting another war. They meticulously research, monitor, and control access to the ruins, striving to maintain stability.

Strategic Turn-Based Combat

Eldgear boasts a relatively straightforward turn-based combat system, offering a wealth of strategic options. However, the game's mechanics add layers of depth. The EMA (Embedding Abilities) system allows players to equip three abilities per unit, usable at any time, providing tactical flexibility through stat boosts, stealth capabilities, and protective maneuvers.

The EXA (Expanding Abilities) system unlocks devastating special attacks when a unit's Tension reaches its maximum during combat.

Powerful and Mysterious GEAR Machines

Adding an element of mystery and danger are the GEAR machines, powerful artifacts with varying roles. Some act as guardians, while others pose a significant threat. Witness these enigmatic machines in action below!

Eldgear is currently available on the Google Play Store for $7.99, offering support for both English and Japanese languages. Note that controller support is not yet implemented; gameplay is currently touchscreen-only.
