Square Enix has updated the official site for their mobile game being co-developed with Aiming, Gestalt Odin, to include details on the story as well as some of the characters who will be in the game.

Story
The legend of Ragnarok tells a story of the gods’ defeat and the destruction of the world. In order to fight against their fate, the gods enlisted the help from many individuals who’s names were never recorded in legend.
The gods of Asgard summons the citizens of Tokyo in order to ascend them into gods known as “Extra Odin”, which hasn’t existed before. Meanwhile, the forces of evil from Niflheimr summon citizens from an alternate universe Tokyo in order to fight against the Extra Odin, as part of a force called Odin Xeno.
The only way to break through this current stalemate is to defeat and gain the powers of the “Seven deadly sins”, which have the power that rivals that of a god. This is a story of a struggle between two forces over the “Seven deadly sins”, which the fate of two Tokyos hanging in the balance.
