The game has received a &#8216;T&#8217; for teen rating and contains blood, mild suggestive themes and violence. Here&#8217;s the full description, which also sheds some light on what else to expect from this upcoming release:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;This is a role-playing game in which players control mercenaries battling rival factions in a fantastical world. From a top-down perspective, players engage in tactical battles against human soldiers and fantastical creatures (e.g., giant wolves, dragons, the undead). Players select attack moves from a menu as their party members move around the battlefield; characters use guns, swords, and magic spells\/energy blasts to defeat enemies. Cutscenes depict further instances of violence and blood: characters impaled by swords; soldiers battling with swords\/lances, amid splatters of blood; still images of characters lying in pools of blood. In one storyline, a villain kidnaps village women, forcing them to work in a brothel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The DioField Chronicle has been rated &#8220;T&#8221; for &#8220;Teen&#8221; by the ESRB: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/O6VDUykISM\">https:\/\/t.co\/O6VDUykISM<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fwYz9vOWb6\">pic.twitter.com\/fwYz9vOWb6<\/a><\/span>\u2014 Gematsu (@gematsu) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gematsu\/status\/1527957546350280705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 21, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Are you looking forward to this upcoming release? <em>Leave a comment down below.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content]Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube Earlier this year in March, Square Enix announced a new &#8220;deeply strategic RPG&#8221; called The DioField Chronicle &#8211; created by a team of &#8220;veteran&#8221; strategy developers at Lancarse Ltd.
