It follows a story of transfer students summoned from different kinds of worlds to compete against each other. The players will be able to summon eidolons, such as Bahamut, that will be providing their help during the fights.

The theme song of the game is performed by Yoko Takahashi. Naturally, these people only represent a small part of the whole team working on the title.
