Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe began streaming a new promotional video for the Black Clover: Quartet Knights game on Wednesday. The video previews the Zone Control mode.
The game will allow for four-vs.-four matches, and players will make their own teams to participate in cooperative battles and face off against rivals.
The third-person magic shooting game will launch in the West for PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam in 2018. The game will also arrive in Japan on PS4 in 2018.
Yūki Tabata launched the original manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in February 2015, and the manga has more than 4.8 million copies in print. Viz Media is publishing the series digitally and in print in North America. Viz describes the story:
Asta is a young boy who dreams of becoming the greatest mage in the kingdom. Only one problem–he can't use any magic! Luckily for Asta, he receives the incredibly rare five-leaf clover grimoire that gives him the power of anti-magic. Can someone who can't use magic really become the Wizard King? One thing's for sure–Asta will never give up!
The television anime adaptation premiered in Japan on October 3, and Crunchyroll is streaming the series in Japanese with English subtitles. Funimation began streaming the show's English dub on October 29. The anime will have 51 episodes.
The show debuted on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block on December 2.
