Prism Knights

Prism knights is a third-person spectacle fighter/action RPG game based of the sentai/power rangers genre.

Plot
Long ago, back in the 8th century, the earth was filled with magic, and in the kingdom of Camelot, a king named Arthur ruled the land with benevolence and fairness, with his trusted companions Guinevere, Kay, Morgana, Gawain, and Merlin, and his apprentice Nyneve. Until his nephew, Mordred, jealous of Arthurs's power and angered at his refusal to use said power to subjugate the other nations, made a deal with the dark gods and stole the magic, plunging the world in darkness. Thus, with Arthur usurped and most of the magic being taken, Merlin used the last of the remaining good magic to enchant five weapons, forming the first prism knights, and with this power Arthur and his companions fought against Mordred and his soldiers of darkness. Ending with the battle of Camlann, where Mordred was sealed beneath the ocean but at the cost of magic in the world, the lives of Arthur and his knights, and Merlin being cursed, becoming immortal as a soul that must reside in something to live, with his apprentice Nyneve becoming immortal.

Merlin, fearing what would happen if the artifact fell into dark hands, had Nyneve teleport herself, him, and the artifacts far west, into what would become America, and hid it in a forest, where he possess a large tree, which became known as Yggdrasil, with her as the artifacts guardian, waiting for the possible day when Mordred reawaken and the artifacts are needed.

Peace reigned for a long time. Until in 2021 a group of undersea explorers discovered and opened an underwater cave, unwittingly unsealing Mordred. Merlin sensed Mordred's awakening and used his magic, hoping to find those of pure heart to wield the artifacts.

Turn to Scott Austins, and his friend Zachary Williams and Adelita Hernandez, alongside Maya Fahn and Walter Cole, a group of high school seniors whose life changed upon being chosen by Nyneve and Merlin to wield the artifacts, becoming the new prism knights to fight off Mordred and his dark magic.
