Magna Carta: Tears of Blood is a classically styled console RPG, with larger-than-life heroes and villains, a legend-evoking settings, and a deep, sophisticated back-story. Promising over 50 hours of gameplay, Tears of Blood takes place in the world of Efferia, where humans share an uneasy co-existence with the natives.

Magna Carta: Tears of Blood is a Korean-made RPG in Japanese style, and a sequel to Phantom of Avalanche; it is set in the same world and has the same protagonist. The game's combat system is turn-based at core, but requires the player to press buttons in a rapid succession and with precise timing to execute attacks. The characters can store up energy to unleash a stronger attack later. Using the technique named Carta, they can also perform various special moves which are based on elemental affinities.

This distrust often leads to territorial feuds, if not all-out warfare, and the player's character must choose between revenge for past wrongs and forgiveness for a better future. Strategy comes in character development, as players gradually master the game's Carta System of magic powers. Battles play out in real-time, rewarding readiness and reflexes as well as proper preparation.

The land of Efferia is a huge continent, where five different races co-exist - alas, not always peacefully. At present, humans and a race called Yasons are having a prolonged conflict. The hero of the game, a young adventurer named Calintz, comes back to his hometown, only to discover that it was destroyed by enemies. Thinking only about revenge, Calintz embarks on a journey that will eventually force him to get involved in the world of conflicts, wars, and intrigues.

Features:
* Get lost in the world of Efferia with over 50 hours of game play
* Includes artbook, full size poster, and mini strategy guide
