Pause, Strategise, Execute​


Using the ‘true real-time with pause’ combat system of Blade Prince Academy, freeze time to plan your squad actions and determine the best sequence of attacks for the perfect combo. Deal status afflictions that weaken enemies over time whilst dodging attacks & spells to keep up the fight. Push enemies into disadvantageous positions and use the environment against them - the possibilities are yours to create.

Discover the Blade Prince Academy​


The Academy is where the Blade Princes learn new skills, rest up between battles, and hang out. Social relationships grow as you guide members of the team to become more comfortable with each other and new heroes come on board. Before you head out on another mission, gain intel about the on-goings of Abjectalia and prep your squads abilities for the next assault.
