Now Playing: Star Ocean: The Divine Force Trailer | Playstation State of Play 2021
As seen in the trailer, The Divine Force tells a sci-fi fantasy story, featuring a roster of different playable characters and side stories–a similar setup to previous entries in the series. However, unlike previous games, it looks like The Divine Force will have a greater emphasis on exploration, giving characters more navigational-based mechanics (like a jetpack) to get around while on foot.
The Divine Force features two intertwining stories and two different protagonists. The first story focuses on a merchant vessel captain that comes from an advanced sci-fi-inspired civilization, while the second explores a princess who comes from a fantasy-inspired underdeveloped planet.
The Divine Force is scheduled to launch for PS5 and PS4 in 2022.
