== Prologue ==
''This is the story of some Magical Girls, whom have been hunting witches throughout the ages.
 
''How many times has this been repeating over and over again, Homura Akemi has stopped counting a long time ago.''
''After challenging several times the most powerful of witches, "Walpurgis Night", without any success, thinking again it was the end, she entrusted everything to Madoka Kaname.''
 
''"If we all five Magical Girls get together, wouldn't we be capable of defeating Walpurgis Night?"''
 
''With that in mind, Homura goes back in time once again.''
''The five girls must forge a bond between them to cooperate and defeat Walpurgis Night.''
 
''Now, the girls are left behind, and one of them will be their guide...''
 
== Gameplay Features ==
The game will feature daytime and nighttime sequences. At daytime, players can talk with the magical girls and strengthen their bonds, while at nighttime players battle witches, the results of which can affect your bonds with the magical girls.
 
The following characters are confirmed to appear:
* [[Madoka_Kaname|Madoka Kaname]]: Shoots an arrow of light. In a pinch, Kyubey will come to assist.
* [[Homura_Akemi|Homura Akemi]]: Manipulates time and wields firearms.
* [[Mami_Tomoe|Mami Tomoe]]: Uses ribbon magic and guns for a long-distance advantage.
* [[Sayaka_Miki|Sayaka Miki]]: Attacks in short-distance with swords. Has high mobility and attack speed.
* [[Kyoko_Sakura|Kyoko Sakura]]: Wields a spear for short to mid-range attacks.
 
===Battle System===
* Simple attack: Pressing triangle button. Combos are counted.
* Magical attack: Pressing triangle button when moving left stick down. Can attack enemies in mid range.
* Areal magic: By pressing triangle button and left thumb button, you can attack multiple enemies in front of and below you, with sonsumption of some MP.
* Special magic: By pressing the square button, one of special magics can be cast with consumption of MP. There are many magics for every magical girl, and have their own levels. The higher level she gained, the more powerful and wider range it goes. There is a magical gauge which will be exhausted when special magic is released.
 
Beside those 2 basic actions, 2 magical girls can use combination magic together. By increasing their friendship value (絆値), there will be events to learn combination skills.
 
To increase friendship values, try the following:
 
* Choose the two together during events in the day, and
* Team up the two in the battle at night and gain good results.
* Prevent being attacked and increase combos during battle.
* To cure team mate often is also a good way.

==Trivia==
* At the time the game's announcement by Dengeki and Famitsu, the console in which The Battle Pentagram would be release was subject to confusion. Famitsu incorrectly listed the game under the PS3 label. They have since issued an apology for the mistake.[http://www.famitsu.com/news/201309/12039771.html]
 
==Observation==
*In Timeline 3, Madoka asks Homura to ''"Save everyone so they can fight Walpurgis Nacht together"'' instead of ''"Keep me from getting tricked by Kyubey."''
