Tensou Sentai Goseiger premiered in South Korea in July 2011 as Power Rangers Miracle Force. A June 2012 press release has revealed that the 2013 series, Power Rangers Megaforce, would adapt Goseiger (to the extent of re-using the names Tensou, Gosei, and Warstar).[4]
The phrase "Descent!" (降臨!, Kōrin!) is utilized in the promotional materials for the series.
Unknown to the people of Earth, there is a branch of humanity called the "Gosei Angels" whose mission is to protect the Earth.[1] When the Earth is targeted by an evil alien invasion force called Warstar, they destroy the Heaven's Tower, the bridge between the Earth and the Gosei World, home of the Gosei Angels, to keep them from interfering. However, five apprentice Gosei Angels are on Earth at the time and, while finding a way to return home, they become the Goseigers to stop Warstar. After many hard battles the Warstar are defeated, but soon after, the monstrous Yuumajuu emerge from their slumber and the Goseigers receive aid from a special being called Gosei Knight who once fought against the Yuumajuu in the past. They defeat the Yuumajuu as well, but the evil robotic Matrintis Empire rises to take over the Earth with the data acquired from the last two factions. Once they are defeated, the Goseigers face their greatest enemy in the one who has been manipulating the other groups from the very beginning: a rogue Gosei Angel who took their mission to protect the Earth to a dangerous extreme by planning to destroy all life and recreate the world in his image.[5][6][7]

Notes
^"Tensou" (天装, Tensō) is literally translated as "Celestial Armament" while "Goseiger" (ゴセイジャー, Goseijā) is a portmanteau of the Japanese words for "Guard" (護, Go), "Star" (星, Sei) and "Ranger" (レンジャー, Renjā). Additionally, the kanji Goseija (護星者, Planet Guardians) is also featured in the series logo and the series' title can also be Romanized as Heavenly Squad Goseiger.
