Sega today announced some new details regarding its upcoming PlayStation 2 RPG Shining Force EXA. When the player's fortress (known as Geo Fort) comes under attack, a warning message appears and the game automatically switches from the player's current location to the fortress. There one has to ensure that the enemy does not manage to destroy the Geo Fort's core, the so-called Photon Converter. Otherwise it's game over.

The game's opening and ending themes both will be performed by the popular Japanese girl band Mi. The opening theme carries the title "World's Love", while the ending theme is titled "Same Sky".
Shining Force EXA will be available in Japan sometime this winter.
