Amano, Uematsu and Compile Heart developing Fairy Fencer F
Final Fantasy’s Yoshitaka Amano and Nobuo Uematsu are working with Compile Heart on a new PlayStation 3 exclusive RPG, it’s been revealed.
Previously teased and reported on a few weeks ago as the “Galapagos RPG,” Fairy Fencer F has been revealed in this week’s Famitsu.
The game features Yoshitaka Amano, the man responsible for the artwork of Final Fantasy I-VI and the series’ distinctive logos, as a concept artist. He’s reunited with Nobuo Uematsu, who will score the game with The Earthbound Papas, his pretty awesome band. The team behind the Hyperdimension Neptunia games will handle the actual development duties.
Siliconera translates that Fairy Fencer F tells the story of a goddesses, gods and twisted royalty. Standard Japanese RPG Stuff. The battle system is said to be an evolution of the one from Neptunia, featuring mid-air combos and team attacks.
Nothing has been mentioned regarding a potential Western release, but the Neptunia titles have been bought over by Nippon Ichi in the past.
The game will be out in Japan later this year.

Fairy Fencer F detailed in Famitsu
Become a Fencer and wield your Fury.
May 9, 2013 / 12:14 AM EDT / Sal Romano (@salromano)
The first game under Compile Heart’s new Galapagos RPG brand is Fairy Fencer F, a fantasy RPG for PlayStation 3 developed by Neptune Team, featuring concept art from Yoshitaka Amano, music from Nobuo Uematsu and the Earthbound Papas, and character design from Date A Live‘s Tsunako.
Famitsu this week has first details on the RPG. Find our summary below, courtesy of Sokuho@Hokanko.
Story
Long ago, wicked gods and goddesses quarreled, though somehow or another they disappeared somewhere. The time is the modern age. The weapons that remained from the quarrels are called “Furies” and those who wield them are called “Fencers.” Fang had just become a Fencer when he rescues an assaulted girl named Tiara, who is also a Fencer.
Characters
You gain weapon points in battle to power up your Fury. And in battle, you can use combos and magic.
Graphics
In general, enemies are regular monsters like in Hyperdimension Neptunia. The graphics seem to have been improved, however.

Interview
Outside of Fairy Fencer F, the magazine also sat down with Idea Factory president Shingo Kuwana and game development boss Norihisa Kochiwa. Here are a couple of interesting excerpts:

[h=1]First Fairy Fencer F Screenshots Look Kind Of Like Neptunia, But With A Fantasy Feel[/h] By Spencer . May 16, 2013 . 1:34am

The Neptunia team is hard at work on a big project called Fairy Fencer F. The game is built using Neptunia’s battle system as a foundation and Tsunako, the character artist from the Neptunia series, created characters for Fairy Fencer F. That’s probably why it feels familiar.
You won’t find any console mascots in Fairy Fencer F, though. Compile Heart designed Fairy Fencer F as a more traditional RPG. Screenshots of the game show Tiara, the girl with blue hair, in battle with Fang. The monsters look more ferocious than the horsebird in Neptunia. The four commands on the menu are: menu (triangle), wait (square), attack (circle), and defend (X).
Yoshitaka Amano created concept art for Fairy Fencer F. The game is slated for release on PlayStation 3 this year in Japan.

The weapons that remained from the quarrels are called “Furies” and those who wield them are called “Fencers.” Fang had just become a Fencer when he rescues an assaulted girl named Tiara, who is also a Fencer.
Characters
- Fang (voiced by Ryota Oosaka) – The main character who accidentally became a Fencer.
- Tiara (voiced by Kaori Ishihara) – A young girl with Gothic clothing and silver hair. In order to undo a goddess’ seal, she is collecting Furies.
- Alyn (voiced by Rumi Ookubo) – She has shoulder length hair and wears a super short skirt. She’s another heroine, the saint that dwells within Fang’s Fury.
- ??? – There is another female character with black hair, but her details are unknown.
You gain weapon points in battle to power up your Fury. And in battle, you can use combos and magic.

- Kuwana: “We’re thinking about developing for PS Vita in the future.”
- Kochiwa: “Since game development for PlayStation 4 is already underway, I want to make the marketplace firm. It’s not PlayStation 4′s specs but the dimensions of how you play that is different, so it’s about how to use our own expertise to make a splash there.”
