Fairy Tail JRPG Gets New PS4 Gameplay Showing Beloved Anime Characters in Action [UPDATED]

Today, during the Cloud Matsuri livestream, Koei Tecmo showcased some brand new PS4 gameplay of the Fairy Tail JRPG in development at Gust. 

The gameplay was from the PS4 version and it was presented by Koei Tecmo Europe senior PR executive Nathan Millis. 

We get to see familiar characters (sixteen playable announced so far, and five can be in the party at the same time) as they prepare to take on the challenge of the Grand Magic Games.

As an added bonus, the build is already localized in English, even if voices are in Japanese. The game certainly seems to have made a lot of progress since the last time I played it in December last year.

Update: added a new upload of the gameplay without commentary, so you can enjoy the audio of the game without distractions.

If you want to learn more you should read our interview with producer Keisuke Kikuchi and watch the extensive gameplay video we recorded at a preview event in London.

You can also see the latest trailer and screenshots, more gameplay from a Japanese livestream, another promotional video, the previous trailer, another recent railer, screenshots showing plenty of playable characters, and a TV commercial.

You can then enjoy the original announcement trailer, gameplay footage from Tokyo Game Show, another gallery of screenshots, the previous  batch introducing Juvia and Gajeel, and the latest focusing on Mirajane, Laxus, and Jellal.

Fairy Tail is slated to release for PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC, and has just been delayed to July 30 for Europe and July 31 for North America.
