Langrisser Mobile
Langrisser Mobile, développé et édité par ZLongame, est sorti le 22 janvier 2019 sur Android et iOS. Ce jeu de rôle et stratégie au tour par tour conserve le gameplay stratégique classique de la série originale, avec des mécaniques de suppression de classe, des effets de terrain et des arbres de classes propres à chaque unité pour une expérience de combat personnalisable. Il propose plus de 300 niveaux issus de la série, une musique signée par le compositeur historique Noriyuki Iwadare, ainsi que l'ensemble des héros des opus principaux, le tout permettant un affrontement en temps réel entre joueurs autour du monde sur le thème de la lutte entre lumière et ténèbres.
L'accueil critique s'est révélé mitigé. Le site Cubed3 a salué un ensemble séduisant mêlant art, récits passés et compétences de personnages, tout en pointant un problème lié à la forme du jeu. RPG Fan a pour sa part regretté la durée interminable, la progression hachée et l'abondance d'objets et ressources en jeu. Du côté des joueurs sur Metacritic, certains ont trouvé le système de collection de personnages satisfaisant grâce à des illustrations soignées mais ont jugé les combats ennuyeux, tandis que d'autres ont au contraire décrit un excellent jeu tactique équilibrant bien action et automatisme, défis et récompenses.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Looking just at the root of this, it's a pretty awesome package of cool art, past stories, character skills, and so on. The problem comes ultimately from the format that, on some level, the game is a 'pay to win,' or at least a soft 'pay to play,' as players are fundamentally limited in how much progress they can make in a single day. The wall you hit limits what actually might have been an extremely cool single player experience. »
« The interminable length of the game, the halting progression, and the deluge of in-game items and resources caused me fall to my knees and wail to the heavens, "Is this necessary!?" Ultimately, Langrisser for mobile is utterly and thoroughly unnecessary. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Langrisser Mobile is fine in collecting characters game. The characters are attractive and the illustrations are beautiful. but The battle is boring because of the lack of combat strategy. And the story is terrible. »
« A great tactical game with just the right mixture of play and auto, challenging and rewarding. »
« The only mobile jerk in which donate is not strangled. Although I'd swung faster with it :-) »
« Final fantasy tactics meets ogre tactics meets atlantica online (the good parts of it) - deep storyline, amazing deep combat - a minor flaw is that not all heros are as balanced as they could be - and that its hard to give feedback on this due to the game being out in china for a while. Otherwise game is mega polished and loving it to death. Playing 1 week now and see myself playing it in a year still due to the sheer depth. »
« One of the absolute best games that I have played on iOS in a very long time. I'm historically a BIG fan of turn based games; having played many of the classics such as Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, and Advanced Wars (among many others). To me, this is what the Fire Emblem port to iOS should have been. Great strategy, great animation, good story/music, characters have depth, and they've ported a few past classic Langrisser stories/games (that I had never played) into a "Time Rift" portion of the game. Up until know, SWGOH had been my "go to" game, but for the past couple of weeks (and for the foreseeable future) it's taken a back seen to Langrisser. If you like classic TBS games, give it a shot. »
