Play as CJ, Garoo, and Isha and explore vast ruins in search of thrills, treasue and ancient secrets.
Will you face the adventures of these three heroes and learn one of Allraan’s most frightening secrets?
At the end of the day, it is quite impossible to look at Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising without thinking ahead to Hundred Heroes. On its own, it is a capable action-JRPG that looks great, with solid combat and platforming to keep players distracted from completing repetitive quests, but as part of the larger universe, it lays an inviting foundation for what is to come with well-realized characters amid a larger unfolding conflict. And as someone hoping for that Suikoden magic to be recaptured, New Neveah becomes an irresistible world to spend time in.

If Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising had to stand on its own, it would probably only be a forgettable, average RPG at best. Fortunately it doesn’t have to, nor was it designed to, as it explicitly places itself as merely an introduction to a hopefully more fully-fledged adventure – one that a certain group of RPG fans has been waiting for for a long time. Considering Rising’s more glaring flaws are with its gameplay and not with its characters or writing, I find it still ultimately works well enough as a respectable introduction it set itself to be. Hundred Heroes can’t get here soon enough.
