Bandai Namco Entertainmentright Digimon story game Franchise,,,,, Digimon Story: Strangers of the Timesmarking the first time the series will have a complete English Dubbing. Nearly eight years later Digimon Story: Internet detective – Hacker’s memoryfans eagerly waited for the continuation of this series of games. and Digimon world Game, appropriate title Digimon story Games place more emphasis on story elements, monster collection, seductive and turn-based combat rather than just raising virtual pets. Recent fans of RPGs, e.g. Role
When I play a guided hands-on demonstration at summer competition festival: Days of playing in front of producers Haere SinuI was transported to a detailed town Digimon. This independent story takes place in a field called “Digital World: The Iliad” inspired by Greek and Roman mythology. I play Yuki Kanan, the agent of a secret organization called Adamas, and I spent some time exploring the digital world and looking at the store owner’s merchandise. Even if the game is mostly expressed, NPC has some self-evident lines. “In addition to being the first Digimon story The game text has a full English sound, compatible with 11 different languages. We want to accommodate Western fans in this sense. ” said producer Hara.
Playing experience begins sometime after the introduction, away from the real world, Digimon Live a normal life. In addition, there is a time travel story element (and therefore the title) that will be explored further in the game, but I can only interact with the digital world with limited abilities.
“We won’t go into the aspect of time travel,” producer Hara shared. “First of all, to get to this part of the game, the protagonist is thrown back in the past, and that’s where the story begins. There’s a bit of a back and forth between the past and the future, and a lot of things happening. But, we don’t want to ruin it.”
To travel to the narrow areas faster, I jumped on Garurumon and started riding Digimon Crazy on the street. This ability is completely new FranchiseAnd, the development team ensured that Easter eggs were included, referencing past games and anime. As a fan Digimon Story: Internet DetectiveI’m very happy to see Suzuki Yasuda Return to illustrate character design. However, during the twenty minutes of the game, I didn’t talk to any characters. only Digimon. While walking around, I asked producer Hara if Digimon They will lay eggs randomly, he replied that they are carefully placed. Despite my limited time, the detailed world design shocked me because I was Franchise. Not surprisingly, because the game has gone through years of development.
“We want this game to be a portal for people we don’t know Digimon Apart from being a long-time fan game, learn about it. ”
During the first battle in the outskirts of town, I scanned for something I could destroy to find treasure. The environment is attracting, allowing players to share with others Digimon The same is true. Once the player’s level is high enough, there is an automatic combat and automatic win feature that saves time from fighting low-level monsters to earn experience points.以此为核心 Digimon 具有带基于元素的攻击的简单岩纸剪式优势系统。 Three main attributes, data, vaccines and viruses provide inherent advantages Digimon. Similar to the combat mechanism Role In the series, players will undergo trial and error tests to see which elemental attacks are most effective against enemies. Players can control their three main parties Digimonbut the guest members are not controllable. I can imagine the inability to control your entire party as a headache, but it keeps the gameplay interesting as you navigate how to manage against enemies.
Another interesting aspect of separation Strangers of the times From other RPGs and Monster Training Franchise Is the Ability to Control A DigimonNonlinear evolution. There are 450 Digimon To collect, the player can find, convert, and explore as many paths as they want. For example, Patamon has multiple evolutionary paths with different requirements, and I chose Angelon based on the employee’s advice. Once I have Angelon, I can drop it back into Patamon or unlock other paths to upgrade the benefits. There is another game mechanic that allows players to collect and convert Digimonwhich also produces benefits such as increasing statistics and level counts.
Digimon Since the last time I attended the party, I have now reached the championship level. I had to let my wisdom try to beat the boss because I remember the original rock paper cutting advantages, but elemental abilities would also cause any damage. Thankfully, I was able to switch to Reservation Digimon No turns. With all the different mechanics to track, turn-based combat adds a layer of strategy instead of winning through brute force. The design team spent some time doing whimsical and detailed attack animations, such as Kyubimon’s Fox Tail Inferno. Since the animation can be repeated, players can increase the speed from 2x to 5x. Probably, you don’t need anything faster than 1.5x, because there is an idle animation that’s quick comedy when swinging back and forth.
动手的游戏主要集中在战斗系统上，因为该团队希望确保给游戏测试人员充分享受相遇的机会。 Some actions require clicking on the reflection and pressing the timing button to ensure that the attack lands on its strike. Most impressive is the ability to provide the character with a huge buff’s cross-art (or XART) functionality when dealing with advanced Digimon. Parrotmon eventually entered energy saving mode, making it impossible for players to formulate how to fight in different ways and strike within a time limit. When I built enough power to activate an X-Art, the screen played an animation of the character taking out their phone, which displayed pixel art of their team’s three main Digimonand then convert the phone to a gun. After photographing the fields of allies Digimonprovides a state growth for the team, which includes increasing attacks, defenses and others.
Overall, I was impressed by my battle Strangers of the timesbut I don’t have a good feeling about the long story elements. Producer Hara mentioned the development team began planning Strangers of the times Residential Internet detective – the team size is roughly the same as Media.Vision Internet detective. Just like anything Digimon– Related to it, he said, the focus is always on the connection between humans Digital Monster.
“To get the most out of this experience, we deliberately did not make it an open world. We want everyone to get the same story experience from playing this game.”
Digimon Story: On October 3, 2025, Time Stranger was released on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
