Star Ocean The Second Story R Introduces the Inventor & Mech Wielder, Precis F. Neumann
The official Star Ocean Twitter account has shared a new English clip highlighting one of Star Ocean The Second Story R’s recruitable party members, Precis F. Neumann. She’s the daughter of a mechanical researcher and a skilled inventor pursuing her own path in life. Her most significant invention is undeniably Robbie, which she utilizes in combat for several “inventive” abilities.
Star Ocean The Second Story R will feature fully voiced event scenes with the original voice cast, a newly arranged soundtrack by original composer Motoi Sakuraba with new songs, including some with a live band, as well as the new Break and Assault Action combat mechanics.
Players can anticipate two selectable protagonists, Claude and Rena, akin to the recently released Star Ocean The Divine Force. Claude is a Pangalactic Federation officer and son of the legendary Ronyx Kenny, causing him to have internal strife regarding his identity. During a mission, Claude’s ego gets the better of him as he’s transported to an underdeveloped planet and spotted by Rena, confusing him for the Hero of Light.
The Earth, Galaxy, and Universe difficulties will also be implemented. Further, the developer is Gemdrops, known for porting Star Ocean: The Second Evolution to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in Japan.
Subtitled French, Italian, German, and Spanish language support will also be available via a launch day update.
