In honour of the 30th anniversary of the fan-favourite Mana series, Square Enix revealed several new announcements during celebratory Livestream from Japan, which include the July 15th release date of the mobile version of Trials of Mana and the reveal of Echoes of Mana, a brand-new free-to-play Mana adventure coming to mobile devices.

Eager fans can pre-register for Trials of Mana on their mobile devices beginning today through each regional App Store and Google Play.
The mobile version of the title boasts several unique features, including revamped touch controls, customizable graphics settings, and cloud save capabilities.

Originally released in Japan as Seiken Densetsu 3 in 1995, Trials of Mana is a full, high-definition remake of the third entry in the classic Mana series, filled with unforgettable adventure, exciting gameplay, and a memorable cast of vibrant characters.
The game features a selectable main cast with upgradable classes and over 300 different abilities to learn as they discover a world of secrets and mysteries. The series’ dynamic action battle system will put players to the test as they evade enemies and unleash aerial and combo attacks. The game was praised by fans and critics alike upon its release on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam platforms for its accessible gameplay, traditional JRPG feel, and beautiful fantasy visuals.
