In Enchanted Arms, players will embark on an epic
adventure filled with unique characters and more than 75 special controllable
creatures that players can unlock as they progress. Players will take on the
role of Atsuma, an Enchanter-in-training who will transform from a naïve student

Atsuma’s special fighting and magical abilities.
“Enchanted Arms is the first classic Japanese RPG
