Dive into the captivating world of **Eldgear**, KEMCO's latest tactical RPG that blends turn-based battles with a rich narrative set in the fantasy realm of Argenia. As the medieval era gives way to a magical age, the land, teeming with hundreds of nations, becomes a hotbed of conflict and mystery. The discovery of ancient ruins brimming with powerful magic technology sets off a scramble among nations, culminating in a brutal war that eventually subsides, leaving a tense peace in its wake.
At the heart of **Eldgear**'s story is **Eldia**, a global task force dedicated to preventing another catastrophic conflict. They tirelessly research, monitor, and control access to the ancient ruins to maintain peace. As a player, you'll navigate this intricate world, uncovering the secrets of ancient machines and striving to alter the fate of Argenia.
The combat system in **Eldgear** is designed to be accessible yet deep, featuring turn-based battles that offer a variety of strategic options. The game introduces unique mechanics like the **EMA (Embedding Abilities)** system, allowing you to equip your units with three abilities that can be used at any time. These can range from stat boosts to tactical moves like Stealth, which can hide your units from enemies, or acting as a bodyguard for your teammates. Complementing this is the **EXA (Expanding Abilities)** system, which activates when your units reach maximum Tension during battles, unleashing powerful moves that can turn the tide of combat.
Adding to the intrigue are the **GEAR machines**, ancient devices shrouded in mystery and power. Some serve as guardians, while others pose a dangerous threat. These machines are central to the unfolding drama and your journey through Argenia.
**Eldgear** is now available on the Google Play Store for $7.99, supporting both English and Japanese languages.
