Black Clover: Quartet Knights release date announced

In what is the first video game adaptation of the hit Black Clover franchise, BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe have announced Black Clover: Quartet Knights for Playstation 4 and PC, with a release date of September 14th, 2018.

The story of the game follows Yami, the captain of the Black Bull squad, has become a teenager again due to some mysterious circumstances. Meanwhile, the capital of the Clover kingdom is under attack from an enigmatic magician named Karna. This disaster seems to be related to an extremely rare total eclipse that happens only once per century. The Magic Knights of the kingdom will have to join forces to bring back peace with players assuming the role of their favourite characters in the magical world of the series as they work strategically in teams of four to attain victory in fierce online battles.

Key features:

MAGIC MEETS THIRD-PERSON SHOOTING

Black Clover: Quartet Knights combines magical powers with third-person shooter gameplay.

COOPERATIVE GAMEPLAY

Band together with three friends to compete in thrilling four-on-four battles across three unique gameplay modes that will test you and your team’s ability to strategize in different ways.

A good, complimentary balance of character types and individual specialities on a team goes a long way to attaining victory, so choose wisely!
