Story
Story
An expanded version, titled Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force, was released in Japan in 2015 for the PlayStation 4, and was released worldwide in 2016. It received ports for Windows and Nintendo Switch in 2017 and 2019, respectively. A spin-off, Fairy Fencer F: Refrain Chord, was released in Japan for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 on September 15, 2022. On April 25, 2023, it received a worldwide release with an addition to Windows.
A long time ago there was a conflict between a goddess and an evil god. The two deities didn't fight directly, but created a large number of special weapons for others to use. Eventually, these powers sealed each other and the power vanished from the world. Fast forward to modern times where these leftover weapons are called "Furies" and warriors that wield them are "Fencers." Fury weapons are said to be incredibly powerful, so Fencers constantly scramble to acquire them. By a strange coincidence, two fencers, Fang and Tiara, get caught up in the struggle between the goddess and evil god.
