Summon Night 5 is a tactical RPG developed by Felistella, released in 2013 for the PlayStation Portable and the fifth mainline entry in the Summon Night series. Gameplay takes place on large grid-based battlefields viewed from an adjustable isometric perspective, with characters moved in turn-based fashion. At the outset, players select either a male or female protagonist and choose one of four "Cross" partner characters; these choices meaningfully alter dialogue and story progression, producing eight distinct narrative paths through the game. The setting departs significantly from the medieval backdrop of earlier entries, shifting to a more contemporary world that incorporates the varied cultures and tribes established across the series. The primary location is Savorle, a model city conceived as a place where inhabitants from the many different peoples and worlds of the Summon Night universe can live alongside one another.
