Serving as a prequel to the Ar Tonelico series, Ar Nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star offers gamers dynamic relationships, a deep crafting system, and turn-based battles, all set in a world where music can create magic. Players take control of two sets of characters, with the warrior-turned-chef Delta and the special forces singer Casty trying to protect humanity from the Sharl, a mysterious life form that has been kidnapping the people of Orei, and the enigmatic Ion and her robot companion Earthes believing people can coexist with the Sharl.
From the field map, gamers can visit cities or head out to battle, and the action moves back and forth between sets of characters as their stories progress and intersect. Casty and Ion can both perform powerful songs during combat, but they are extremely vulnerable while in song, so Delta and Earthes take the vanguard in their respective turn-based battles, unleashing a variety of powerful skills and weapon-based attacks. Players can then head to synthesis shops in the city to create enhancement parts or healing items, while the Genometrics system lets them literally enter the minds of their characters to build strength and resolve inner turmoil.
This limited edition comes in special packaging and includes the full game, as well as a 36-page hardcover art book, a poster, and a CD soundtrack.
