Blazing Souls Accelate
Blazing Souls Accelate is a Strategy RPG developed by Idea Factory and published by Aksys Games in North America. It's a port of a game from the Play Station 2 or Xbox 360 that was never localized, and it's somehow related to most games developed by Idea Factory.
The story begins with Zero, the protagonist, making his living as an independent contractor. One day he is investigating a certain site. It is there that he finds a mysterious stone infused with a powerful magic known as the Core Elemental. As he takes on more and more jobs to investigate other locations, he discovers more and more Core Elemental stones. On his travels, he begins to encounter the Human Genomes—new creatures created by God to replace mankind.
Zelos also appears in the crossover games Chaos Wars and Cross Edge.
