This version of the isometric tactical RPG features all the new content, including characters and the "Another Marona" campaign, added to the Wii release, Phantom Brave: We Meet Again. NIS has also added additional new characters from other NIS games, including Hero Prinny and the Unlosing Ranger (according to Siliconera).
It's because those five characters make this a slightly different game that the box art can claim it as "Only on PlayStation." Apparently.

About Phantom Brave: The Hermuda Triangle
Phantom Brave is a turn based strategy RPG that incorporates unique battle styles and a hardcore character customization system. Players can create units from a list of monster/ghost categories and power them up to exponentially.
Battle System
There are two main phases to Phantom Brave's battle system. The first phase is the Confine phase. Marona, the protagonist of this game, can summon ghosts and monsters as battle units to fight for her. However, in order to do so she must "confine" souls into objects on the battlefield like rocks, plants, and items. Depending on what object you use as the host, the stats of the units you summon will greatly differ. Some units become stronger on certain objects, so knowing your spirits' characteristics becomes a very important strategic element.
