Square Enix announces new tactics game The DioField Chronicle

Plus role-player Valkyrie Elysium.

Square Enix turned up to tonight's PlayStation State of Play with two games to show off, neither of which had the words "Final Fantasy" in the title.

The DioField Chronicle is a new tactics game coming to PS4 and PS5 this year, as well as PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. It's set in the new realm of Alletain, and looks very nice indeed.

We got around two minutes of gameplay in its debut trailer below:
