Update Information

Original Story

New Systems

  • Environmental Effects


    • Certain fields have Environmental effects that can change over time.
    • Environments not only affect the Field, but they can have various effects in battle too.
    • Active Environmental effects can be checked when first entering a Field or at any time on the Minimap.


  • Phase Shift


    • Occasionally, a Field under an Environmental effect will generate an entrance to a Phase Shift.
    • A Phase Shift area contains special battles, and may be under even more severe Environmental Effects.
    • You'll receive more of certain items by braving these warps, but after a certain number of battle turns have passed, you'll be ejected.


  • Ship


    • Vehicles can be used to travel through special fields. Unlike regular fields, movement is unbounded.
    • A special icon will show you where you can embark from.
    • While traveling in a vehicle, tap the vehicle to transition to the vehicle's interior areas.


New Battle System

  • Sidekicks


    • Sidekicks are characters' friends and allies, or even traveling partners or other companions.
    • Add a Sidekick to your party and they'll assist you in battle.
    • Sidekicks will use skills in battle with set timing. These Auto Skills will also build up Charge.
    • 5★ Sidekicks have special Skills called Charge Skills. Once you have enough Charge saved up, you can activate the Charge Skill on your turn.
    • You can obtain Sidekicks by Encountering certain 5★ class and style characters in the Gallery of Dreams; by class changing to a specific 5★ class; or by clearing special events.
    • Sidekicks can be equipped with Sidekick-specific equipment.


  • Auras


    • Auras are abilities that activate when certain conditions are fulfilled in battle.
    • Some enemies and Sidekicks have Auras. Activation conditions and Aura effects differ depending on the type of Aura.
    • Many Auras affect units other than the user, so even units without Auras can benefit.
    • Once an Aura's conditions are fulfilled, it will last the rest of the battle. However, if an Aura's caster is defeated, the Aura will fade.


Other New Features

  • Bounty Hunting


    • Visit the Barkeep of the Hunters' Nest in Omegapolis Underbelly for the latest info on Bounty targets' locations.
    • When you defeat a Bounty target, return to the Bounty giver to claim your rewards.
    • Defeat Bounties to prove your skills, unlock higher-value bounties, and even learn about new Bounties from townsfolk.


  • Weapon Reforging


    • The Wandering Blacksmith of Vaporia can give your weapons new power.
    • Special materials are needed to unlock this new power.


  • Difficulty Settings


    • In Main Story Part 3 The Empire Strikes Back, you can adjust battle difficulty settings.
    • The difficulty can be adjusted at any time.
    • Higher difficulties will bring stronger monsters, but also higher experience gains and drop chance for certain items.
      ※Some enemies' difficulty rating is fixed.


  • Symbol Encounters


    • Enemies (other than Horrors) will be shown on the field, and if you run into them, a battle will begin.
      ※Some special enemies can engage you without touching them.
    • Enemy symbols will disappear when you defeat them, but they'll come back when the area is reloaded.
