Callsign KEDR: Pre-Registration, Story & Real-Time Tactics

A Knox deployment still on the launch pad

Pre-registration is open from today, and in-game items will be gifted at launch according to how many people sign up.

The App Store lists Callsign KEDR for release on November 18, 2026, filed as a role-playing game with a 13+ age rating. It supports iPad, lists English, and is marked not verified on macOS. Google Play shows the longer title コールサイン - KEDR：リアルタイム戦術. The store page on apps.apple.com is a pre-registration listing, so there is no public build to play yet.

The download is free, with some paid content. Play needs an internet connection, and data charges may apply. Signing up on the App Store or Google Play before launch is how you qualify for the registrant-count item gift.

Fifty years into the Millennium, one legacy left to find

The fate of two stars is up to you.

The store story opens in the Millennium, fifty years after humanity stepped into space. Earth's companion star Knox is home to kemonomimi people who wield a mystic power called EGO. Twenty-nine years ago humans landed there. Earth's two great powers, the Federation and the Compact, dragged a world stuck at roughly 17th-century technology into the present.

Five years before the campaign, the Federation collapsed under the space race and successor factions fell into civil war; the Compact sank into chaos too. Cut off from supply, Knox's young industry failed. You play a young veteran who survived that war. Your mission is to recover the Federation-era EGO research legacy, a power said to be strong enough to shake heaven and earth, while some people on Earth pin their last hope on Knox and EGO again.

Fingertip tactics across hundreds of battlefields

The pitch is simple input with deep decisions: one fingertip moves your force in real time. You field infantry and tanks together, raise positions, and line up combined attacks. The store names three pillars: infantry-and-tank coordination, base building, and real-time tactics. Missions are the spine of play, so placement, movement, and when you commit the attack decide the fight. Exact scoring, ranks, and win formulas are not on the store page.

Between battles you spend days with sharply drawn kemonomimi comrades and build bonds while you follow the story. Presentation leans on Japanese voice plus recorded Russian voice, and on Knox culture set against Earth's Millennium culture. That package reads closer to a story tactics RPG than a score-chase casual web game: no browser arcade loop is described, and the battlefield count is the hook instead of a single endless stage.

• Read the ground

  Hundreds of battlefields use different terrain, so where you plant a position changes with the map.

• Split the force

  Infantry and tanks are meant to breathe together; the winning pattern is the one you assemble, not a preset combo.

• Time the push

  Victory hinges on deployment, movement, and attack timing during mission-style advances.

• Keep the squad

  Bond-building with your comrades sits beside the fighting as you chase the legacy.
