Developed by the makers of Riviera (and expanded upon the original GBA version), Yggdra Union takes place in the centrally-located kingdom of Fantajinia. The princess Yggdra Yuril Altowits flees the castle town of Parteena as the nation's era of peace falls apart, the legendary holy sword Grand Centurio in hand. As the only remaining survivor of the royal lineage, she hopes to free her country from its invaders.
Princess Yggdra is the main character of this story, but in the game, you play as Milano, a young boy who leads a group of bandits and ends up meeting Yggdra early on. Battles with the imperial army make up the brunt of gameplay in Yggdra. The game makes use of cards for all areas of gameplay, from movement on the battle field to attacks and parameter changes for your characters. On each turn, you select a card. Players start off with five types of cards, but eventually end up with 30 before the game's end.

Atlus U.S.A., Inc., today announced Yggdra Union, a card-based strategy RPG for the PlayStation Portable system (PSP). For years, strategy RPG fans have accepted repetitive, non-interactive battle sequences as the genre standard; few games have dared to break the mold. Yggdra Union blows through, shattering the mold into tiny, unrecognizable bits. One reviewer wrote of the game's ground-breaking mechanics, "It's no easy feat to invigorate a genre that has remained fairly set in its ways for the last few generations, let alone do it with the imagination and energy present here."* Experience a fresh mix of turn-based strategy and real-time action, constantly engaging the player and providing intense, riveting gameplay combined with tactical card-based combat.
