There's a new Square Enix SRPG making its way to iOS and Android, but it's not based on one of the company's bigger franchises. So instead of a new Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest spin-off, tactics fans will instead be getting a new IP: Heavenstrike Rivals.

It's a turn-based affair, with some CCG elements throw in too, and it has PvP multiplayer as well, and the video you see above will guide you through the basics of play.

Heavenstrike Rivals will come to iOS and Android this spring.
