This combination allows for an engaging gameplay experience.
Set in Shibuya City, Tokyo, the game offers thrilling action between wizards.
The game promises incredible gameplay packed with fast-paced action.
What is Reynatis?
Reynatisis an anticipated action RPG set in the recreated modern-day bustling city of Shibuya, Tokyo.
Story
Reynatisfollows the lives of magicians in the bustling City of Shibuya, Tokyo.
Ultimately, where there are many magicians, a power struggle is inevitable.
InReynatis, the two wizards struggle for power by showcasing their prowess.
Like in real-life Cities, wizards can not publicly reveal their magical abilities, nor can they hide forever.
Consequently, some of the wizards unleash their abilities as they explore the city.
However, that comes at a price.
It exposes them to attacks and pursuit from law enforcers.
Even worse, monsters might attack the wizards.
Wondering where these monsters come from?
Now, there is this drug in the city, and when abused, it turns civilians into monsters.
So, these monsters can identify the wizards and attack them.
The story begins with the protagonists, Marin and Sari, facing each other in the streets of Shibuya.
In the game, you could choose to conceal your magic or reveal it.
However, there will be consequences for whatever choice you make.
Characters
The game features numerous characters.
Marin Kirizumi is the protagonist, exploring the nighttime streets of Shibuya.
The game features other characters, including the Magical Justice Officers and various Shibuya inhabitants.
As we anticipate the games release, we hope for more character development from the developers.
Gameplay
The game offers unique, action-packed gameplay.
The game stands out with its hoodie system, where players can switch between two modes.
Players can choose between the suppressor mode and the liberator mode.
Remember the two protagonists?
This is where their personalities draw the line, since you either decide to conceal or reveal your abilities.
However, each choice comes with its own consequences.
For instance, if you choose the suppressed mode, you cannot initiate attacks.
However, you could evade incoming attacks.
On top of that, your interactions with civilians help you gather information and embark on quests.
On the other hand, you might just pull the hoodie and reveal your identity in liberator mode.
Now, here is the catch: the liberator mode allows you to unleash your magical abilities.
The mode unleashes all the abilities of the wizard in you.
However, you risk being reported by civilians.
The hoodie system presents a unique experience, adding complexity to the games combat situations.
Players must choose their preferred playstyle based on the situation.
Notably, you should cautiously choose between the suppressor mode and the liberator mode.
It’s all about being strategic.
it’s possible for you to not hide forever, nor can you keep exposing the wizard in you.
Maintain the balance for well-rounded gameplay inReynatis.
