Get your party ready as Visions of Mana is set to release this August

Square Enix have announced that Visions of Mana, the next installment in the Mana series of games will release on August 29 for Xbox, PlayStation and PC. Check out the latest trailer for the game below.

Visions of Mana is a brand-new story and mainline entry to the Mana series and follows the journey of Val, a newly appointed soul guard who is tasked with accompanying his childhood friend, Hinna, a chosen alm to the Tree of Mana.

The above trailer also introduces two new characters, Palamena and Julei, who Val and Hinna befriend on their journey through the vast world to reach the Tree of Mana. In the game players will be able to build their own three-person dream team while in battle, switching between the five playable characters, Val, Careena, Morley, Palamena, and Julei with supporting companions, Ramcoh, Aesh and Hinna assisting from the side.

In addition to the new trailer and details, we also got new character art, the below amount of art includes two of Careena, four of Julei, one for Morley, five for Palamena and then four for Val, in that order.

The new trailer provides a closer look at some of the latest gameplay features, including the Elemental Vessels, the mystical artifacts that house the power of the elements within them. Players can use the Elemental Vessels to change classes and gain new abilities during battles.

With each character possessing their own specific class for each Elemental Vessel, players can customise their team line up to enjoy a flexible, fast-paced fighting style. Visions of Mana also sees the return of the series staple in-battle Ring Menu, allowing players to pause combat and plan out their next move. Elemental triggers can also be found throughout the vibrant world and used to unlock new places to explore and find hidden items on the map.

You can see many of those details captured in the screens below as well.

The game will arrive on August 29 for PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
