Unsung Story: Tale of the Guardians is a tactical role-playing game in development by Little Orbit for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Launched on Kickstarter in early 2014 by developer Playdek, the game was announced to be developed under the creative direction of Yasumi Matsuno, the director of Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story, which Unsung Story takes major inspiration from.[1] The game gathered over $600,000 in contributions, but no new information about it was released for much of 2015.[2][3] In February 2016, Playdek announced that development had been stopped for lack of resources.[4] In September 2016, Playdek announced a collaboration with another unannounced company to continue the game's development.[5] In August 2017, development was shifted over to developer Little Orbit.[6][7][8] In late 2017, Little Orbit announced that the game would also be released for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One, and would be aiming for a simultaneous release across all platforms in late 2019.[9][10]
