Description

In a separate time axis
from the one where Madoka became an extra-dimensional entity.
There, five magical girls still fought against the witches.

They still try to defeat every witch and familiar of this world,
as well as Walpurgisnacht.
Yes, in this time axis,
In order to defeat the witches, the five have become one.

Despair and prayer.
Reality and parallel reality.
Trust and betrayal.
A moment and an eternity.

Your will, and the determination of the five magical girls
will become one
in order to fulfill the wishes of all time.

In this time axis' world, will Mami be saved?
Will it end without Madoka's disappearance?

Come forth, with the world-saving wish in your heart,
Embark on a journey, hand in hand with the five magical girls.

Gameplay style

The game will be centered around the anime story. Players will be allowed to create their own magical girl, and form a team with the original five magical girls from the cast. Kyubey is not playable, but as an instructor who explains when events occurs. The game will feature a 6 player party system, using your original character or the cast characters. Parties can be made of any combination of original characters and cast characters. Two or more of the same characters may coexist on a team, so, for example, a team may contain two Madokas. A team may also consist solely of original characters. Players can freely travel around Mitakihara alone or with a party as they finish quests, in a way similar to 'Sugoroku'. There will be quests centered around past and future magical girls. Certain quests may require certain cast characters, or a certain amount of players. Players will be put into separate servers in the game and each world only contains up to 6 players at a time. When each player finishes all their quests, they may participate in a massive raid against Walpurgis Night that exceeds 6 players. Unlike many MMOs, there won't be a standard leveling system. Instead, as the player progresses through the game, their apparel will become stronger and level up. Once the players defeat Walpurgisnacht, the game resets. The game will be free-to-play with an item store. There are 6 parts which can be customized by players. Players can change weapons, clothes and accessories of their magical girls. Rare clothes and accessories may also improve her abilities. Even the 5 magical girls in game can change weapon. Since magical girls equip skill cards which must be used together with specific type of weapon, players have to consider how to pair them, however.
