Game description: Shining Force EXA (シャイニング・フォース イクサ Shainingu Fōsu Ikusa) is an action role-playing game developed by Neverland and published by Sega for the Sony PlayStation 2 video game console as a part of the Shining series. It tells the story of a world divided by a war between humans and demons. Like Shining Force Neo, the gameplay is in the vein of the popular game Diablo or Record of Lodoss War for the Dreamcast (the latter also by Neverland). The game features a variety of weaponry inspired by the medieval era, magic, and a collection of skills that can be improved upon for the main characters.
