Suikoden Star Leap Story Trailer reveals the main characters

Konami has published a new story trailer for Suikoden Star Leap during a new stream for the Suikoden series that was also broadcast with English closed captions. This trailer also reveals some of the key characters who will appear in the upcoming mobile game.

While Konami had already provided a story synopsis during the initial reveal last March, the new information reveals that the story of Star Leap will take place in Solar Year 453. The game will also feature several existing series characters like Viktor, Flik, and Odessa. Without giving many series spoilers, this game will tell a story that eventually connects to the first Suikoden entry, which is included in Suikoden I&II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars.

Konami has also updated the game's official website with the newly introduced characters' biographies in English, while revealing their respective Japanese voice actors:

• Hero: Tomohiro Ono
• Hisui (Hero's servant): Hika Tsukishiro
• Hou (Hero's father): Akio Otsuka
• Shirin (Hero's childhood friend): Fairouz Ai
• Shapur (Hero's teacher and butler): Takuya Sato

• Farah: Miho Wataya
• Flanagan: Kengo Takanashi
• Stendhal: Inuko Inuyama
• Odessa: Haruka Shiraishi
• Flik: Yuichi Nakamura
• Viktor: Katsuyuki Konishi

The new trailer is also available to watch right below, although it's based on the original Japanese version. Suikoden Star Leap will be available for iOS and Android, and it will also have English language support in addition to Japanese.

The Rune of Change is one of the 27 True Runes that are said to have created the world.

Solar Year 453. Tragedy strikes a lakeside village located east to the Scarlet Moon Empire, where mysterious enemies attack, houses go up in flames, and people have to flee for their lives.

As the Hero and his friends depart for their journey, they quickly get caught up in the great swells of history.
What are the atrocities that torment the people of the Empire?
What kind of destiny will these encounters with Viktor, Flik, Odessa, and various others lead to?
Small adventures eventually turn into a large ambition.

For our precious one.
