We learn that the beloved character will be playable at EVO 2019 this week, and will also appear in a mini-tournament that will see the participation of the popular players of the Cygames Beast eSport team, Daigo “The Beast” Umehara, PR Balrog, GamerBee, Fuudo, and Infexious.

Below you can read the specifics of the events planned at EVO:

We also get an official introduction of Percival, alongside the screenshots.

“He travels to lands far and wide to learn the secrets of statecraft, all in hopes of founding his dream country. Before he set out on a journey to achieve such lofty goals, he and Lancelot served as officers in the same order of knights, studying under the same master. He received his nickname, the Lord of Flames, from the noble way he wields his blazing long sword. Those who come face-to-face with him find themselves either entranced or terrified by his abilities.”

The game will be released for PS4 this year but doesn’t yet have a firm launch date.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
