Coming in 2018. Demo is out now.
Anyone try this out yet? I played it for an hour or so last night, and I'm sold. It's been a trend for a while now to have an updated take on retro graphics, but I think they found a unique look with their "2D-HD" style that they've established here.The game is just absolutely gorgeous, and I love the giant enemy sprites vs. the tiny hero sprites in the battles, which obviously evokes SFC/SNES-era RPGs like FF (or I guess even FC/NES).
The Weak/Break/Boost aspect of the battles is interesting, though it seems like it would be very difficult to defeat even the weak enemies without making use of it.
The game is made by the
Bravely Default team, which I loved, so I'll definitely be paying attention to any future games they develop. They seem to have really mastered the art of giving an updated take on the traditional RPG.
