The game's protagonist is 18-year-old Sho Kasugai, a member of S.E.A.L.E.D., an organisation tasked with stopping a mysterious man named "The End", who wants to destroy the world.

[5] The "Defer" feature allows the player to pass up their turn to an ally; this can be used to allow the strongest party member to continue to attack, and take advantage of the characters' strengths and weaknesses.

Berserk characters gain a boost in attack damage but will hit both allies and enemies alike.

[5] Lost Dimension also has a visual novel-like system where the choices of the player determine the fate of the game's story, as well as its characters.

The game's protagonist is 18 year-old Sho Kasugai, a member of S.E.A.L.E.D., a special group of 17-to-18 year old psychics tasked with investigating a giant pillar that appeared out of nowhere.

[11][12] As the members of S.E.A.L.E.D arrive at the base of the pillar, The End tampers with their memories; they can't recall how they got there, or much of their younger pasts.

The party learns that the Pillar is a place that connects between dimensions; The End claims to be from a different plane of existence.

Ten years earlier, Earth was facing eventual destruction from a meteor, and scientists implanted powerful "fate materia" into 12 young children in an attempt to clone a new dimension where this disaster would be averted - these were the 11 members of S.E.A.L.E.D., and The End.

A young Sho was asked to divide the group using his precognitive powers and send only those who would allow a new fate to the new dimension - those with the change materia.

The End rigged the whole erasure system to force a more mature Sho to suffer the weight of his actions in knowingly sending a comrade to their death, and to relive his choices from ten years earlier.

[17] In 2017, UK-based localization company Ghostlight announced that it would be porting the game to Windows, and it was released there in October 2017 Lost Dimension has a score of 72% on Metacritic.

[32] IGN awarded it a score of 7 out of 10, saying "Lost Dimension has interesting characters and smart combat, but lacks a compelling story.
