Unique plot and mechanics of Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero
In Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero, players will go along Manya young girl with the ability to communicate with spirits, on her journey to rescue her friend Ash. The special feature of the game is the movement system based on distance without a gridinstead of the grid system commonly found in other tactical role-playing games.
Another mechanism that makes the game unique is Confinement: Marona can summon ghostly spirits into battle by “imprisoning” them in objects around the map. The object a soul is imprisoned in will affect their abilities, allowing players to build strategies based on the environment and location on the map. However, summoned units only last for a limited number of turns, so players need to calculate carefully to maintain their formation and take advantage of the battlefield.
Remakes and legacy of Phantom Brave
In addition to The Lost Hero, NIS America will also release the remake version of Phantom Brave: The Hermuda Triangle Remastered on PS5 on November 7. The original Phantom Brave game first launched on PlayStation 2 in 2004 and was released on PC via Steam in 2016.
