What is the story behind That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: ISEKAI Chronicles?
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: ISEKAI Chronicles follows the original story that took place in the light novel series, including encounters with the Kijin and the Kingdom of Falmuth. This is a perfect game for anime fans but who didn’t get into light novels or manga series.
The main character starts out as Satoru Mikami, an ordinary 37-year-old office worker living in Tokyo. He seems quite content with his boring life until he is stabbed by an unknown assailant. He is reborn in what appears to be a fantasy world, full of magic and creatures he has never seen before. Oh, and he’s a slime. That is important.
After familiarizing himself with his new abilities, he meets a Storm Dragon named Veldora. Veldora has been sealed for the past 300 years and Satoru befriends him and promises to help destroy the seal. They decide to exchange names, Veldora calls him “Rimuru” and Rimuru renames him “Tempest” in return. Using his ability, Rimuru consumes Tempest and his prison, hoping to eventually free him.
Tempest’s disappearance causes a power vacuum in the forest, which Rimuru fills in hopes of bringing harmony to all races on earth. His rise to power and his success in creating a great nation attracts the attention of close friends and enemies.
What else will That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: ISEKAI Chronicles include?
The original author, known only as “Fuse”, will include two additional stories that have not been seen before. Players will also see new characters, designed by the series’ original illustrator: Mitz Vah.
Discover the nation of Tempest, take part in exciting battles and enjoy unleashing some attack combinations to really show your power.
