More information about Natural Doctrine has been released. Kadokawa Games provided the following details:

• Missions are divided into Story (plot progression) and Free (for leveling up). Consecutive plays of Free Missions are limited.
• Mission objectives are shown at the start of each stage, where players establish battle formation and turn order.
• Link Turns allow characters to perform consecutive attacks, though if one of the attacks fails, the player is exposed to consecutive counterattacks. Long Link Turns can also leave the involved characters unable to attack for several turns.
• Confirmed difficulties are easy, normal, and hard. Difficulty is set before starting the game, and can be changed between missions.
• Losing any ally, even only one, means game over.
• There are no mid-mission saves; all saving must be done on the world map.

Natural Doctrine hits the PS3, PS4, and PS Vita in Japan on March 19.
