Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia and SQUARE ENIX released Visions of Mana, the first mainline installment in the Mana series in more than 17 years, on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S and PC (via Microsoft Store and Steam)

Visions of Mana returns to the series’ action-RPG roots, taking players on a new adventure with protagonist Val, a newly appointed soul guard, on his journey to accompany his childhood friend and the Alm of Fire, Hinna, to the Tree of Mana to rejuvenate the mana flow.

Visions of Mana is a brand-new title in this series revolving around the sacred sword and Mana. The protagonist Val and his childhood friend Hinna, the newly appointed Alm of Fire, set off on a journey to the Mana Tree. This game’s iconic vibrant and vast semi-open field contains adorable yet ferocious monsters, allowing you to enjoy swift three-dimensional battles using the power of the Elementals.

Through adventures with friends met along the way, they start to see the truth about the world. Must we accept our fates? A new Mana tale begins here as a classic fantasy series returns to its roots.

In Tianeea, the Fire Village, everyone is preparing for the coming of the Faerie and the naming of an “alm.” Every four years, alms from around the world are chosen to travel to the Tree of Mana and rejuvenate the flow of Mana power by offering their souls. A soul guard accompanies the chosen alms to ensure their safe pilgrimage.

On the day of the Faerieʼs arrival, Val, the new soul guard, brings his childhood friend, Hinna, to the festival. As the sun falls beneath the skyline, all the spectators wait with bated breath, hoping to be chosen as an alm. The Faerie finally descends before Hinna, appointing her the Alm of Fire.

The villagers bid them both farewell, praying for their success as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
