Collect cards, level up your heroes, and engage in multi-player battles in this RPG card-collecting mobile title from the company that brought you Final Fantasy.

Square Enix is back with another gorgeous mobile title, released Friday. It looks gorgeous and the gameplay will look familiar to anyone who’s played a turn-based RPG in the last 20 years.

The story is timeless: you’re a talented hero that can control creatures known as Guardians. These fearsome beasts live in the Codex, a high-tech environment that you’ll have to enter in order to fight these baddies in the name of the Resistance. Your ultimate mission? To bring a super-powerful Guardian into the real world to help the Resistance finally end the totalitarian Empire’s chokehold.

Sound familiar?

You can engage in combat and battles, level up your captured Guardians, and engage in battle with up to four other real players along the way.

Guardian Codex is a sequel to Guardian Cross, Square Enix’s previous title, which has garnered more than eight million downloads.
