The story progresses through various points plotted on a map. Fighting plays out like a strategic RPG where each character has his/her own set of moves, but by moving each character to an appropriate square, you can chain characters together and pull off combos. The game includes dating sim elements through its "Soul Breed" system in which the player creates a new character by pursuing a relationship with a female character as the game's storyline extends for five generations, each one having a different male protagonist. The game was localized in Europe as Agarest: Generations of War by Ghostlight. The game was released as a download on the PlayStation Network, and on disc for the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 port featured additional voice acting, and a gallery mode.
