Digimon Story's launch trailer: Time Stranger, the first of the saga in ten years

Just a couple of weeks before Legends Pokémon is put on sale: ZA, comes the new Digimon game by Bandai Namco. This is Digimon Story: Time Stranger, which as indicated by its launch trailer is already available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC through Steam. If we take a look at criticism, we will see that the average grade of the title developed by half. Vision is around 80 out of 100.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is the first installment of this series from Digimon Story: Cyber ​​Sleuth, a game also developed by Media.VISION that was put on sale in 2015 in Japan. In Time Stranger, players will find the usual RPG offer with monster doming elements and a story that «explores the deep link that unites humans and digimon.» It is an adventure that will lead players to explore and travel between two different but interconnected worlds: the land of humans and the digital world where Digimon resides (with their homes and shops).

The campaign begins in Tokyo, when an agent of an organization meets an unknown creature shortly before an explosion craws the city. Next, the story goes back eight years and invites players to discover the mystery behind the collapse of the world.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger has a spin -of fight that combines strategic elements with «evolved combat components.» It is a system that revolves around the interaction between the attributes (vaccine, viruses, variable …) and the elements (fire, water, plant …) of the digimon, and where the interactions create an environment from which strategies can arise. The title has more than 450 Digimon, so having a balanced team and with a personalized development will be one of the keys to find success. In addition, the link between the Digimons and the player must be taken into account.

Among the novelties of Digimon Story: Time Stranger we find the personalities of the Digimon, which influence the growth of statistics, the acquisition of skills and the conditions of digievolution. Evolution is not linear. In case certain conditions are met, several evolutionary routes are unlocked. In addition, they can learn personality -related skills that make them more capable in combat. To the skills of the Digimon you have to add those of the player himself, which can enhance the monsters of his team or access a technique that fuses the digives.

For those who want more, Digimon Story: Time Stranger has a seasonal pass with three additional episode and digimon packages.
