“It is so exciting to bring players a new mainline entry in the Mana series after 15 years,” said Mana Series Producer Masaru Oyamada. “We hope fans are as excited to return to the world of Mana as we are. We put so much work into making this new entry feel like a return home for existing fans while welcoming new players into the series. As you feel the world of Mana teeming with the breath of the elemental spirits, we hope that you’ll bear witness to the story that awaits Val and his friends on their journey.”

Since the series debuted in 1991 as FINAL FANTASY ADVENTURE, a spin-off of the FINAL FANTASY series, Mana games have immersed players in bright vibrant worlds, breathtaking environments, heartwarming characters and high-fantasy storylines across many genres and platforms. Based on 30 years of legacy, Mana Series Producer Masaru Oyamada and his team incorporated everything they have learned from the last 17 Mana games to ensure that Visions of Mana is a faithful addition to the series that fans know and love, while also offering fans and newcomers a fresh experience with a new story, new characters and new gameplay mechanics.

About the Mana Series

Originally released in 1991 as “FINAL FANTASY ADVENTURE,” a spin-off title for the “FINAL FANTASY” series, the game’s positive reception established it as its own standalone action RPG franchise.​ ​The unique elements that make a true Mana game include an emotional narrative about the power of mana, the legendary Mana Sword, a quirky cast of characters, memorable music, and a weapon-based battle system. The Mana series has released 17 titles over the last 30+ years and sold over 9 million copies/downloads worldwide. The demand for the franchise from its fans has seen several Mana games re-mastered and re-released in the West over the last console generation.​
