Eventually, a resistance movement called the Liberation Army was formed.

The protagonist (whose name and background are chosen by the player) takes command of the new army, and leads his allies towards a revolution.

Ogre Battle has elements of a real-time strategy game and a tactical RPG.

The player manages a large army consisting of characters belonging to a vast amount of different classes.

These classes include military specializations as well as mythological creatures such as dragons, angels, hellhounds, undead trees, etc.

Each class its own unique characteristics and abilities in battle.

For example, vampires and werewolves can only be deployed when the battle takes place during the night.

The player moves troops in real time on the tactical map.

Individual battles between units are handled in a turn-based RPG style.

The player is able to select general commands for the battle, as well as use powerful tarot cards for special techniques.

Characters level up, change classes and grow stronger over the course of the game.

The player can also purchase items in towns.

The protagonist's reputation is affected by the player's decisions during the storyline.

The player can make choices that may prove to be popular or unpopular with the nation in contact with the Liberation Army.

In addition, every character has his or her own alignment, ranging from good to evil.

Liberating towns with evil characters may lower the army's reputation.

These and other choices affect the plot's development and eventually lead to one of the thirteen possible endings.

About PlayStation

The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.

Gamevaro tracks Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1993.

Rarity & condition

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
