概要
Return to a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the Luna Rapacis in this evolution of the anime Soulslike genre. As a Revenant Hunter resurrected by the time-manipulating Lou MagMell, you must traverse temporal rifts between a desolate present and a chaotic past to prevent the catastrophic Resurgence.
ストーリー
Guided by Lou MagMell, you journey 100 years into the past to the era of the hero Idris. The narrative demands emotional investment: rather than simply slaying monsters, you must befriend the human forms of future bosses in the past to unlock the 'keys' needed to defeat their corrupted forms in the present. It is a tale of sacrifice, memory, and the desperate fight to save humanity from the Horrors.
Gameplay
Experience refined Soulslike combat with high-speed mobility and deep customization. Master the Forma system to unleash Ichor-powered magic and utilize the new Partner System to either summon allies for independent support or assimilate them for massive stat boosts. Combat is fluid and vertical, allowing for exploration on foot or motorcycle across vast, dual-timeline maps.
