Νέο video παρουσίαση του Xenoblade Chronicles X

Η Monolith παρουσίασε σήμερα, μεσω livestream, ένα νέο video του επερχόμενου Xenoblade Chronicles X, το οποίο μας δείχνει αναλυτικά τους μηχανισμούς του τίτλου. Επίσης, από το video παίρνουμε και μια γεύση από τους εχθρούς του παιχνιδιού, ενός θηλυκού τύπου εξωγήινων.

Παρακάτω μπορείτε να δείτε όλα τα νέα χαρακτηριστικά του τίτλου, που δόθηκαν στην δημοσιότητα.

• Battle system is similar to Xenoblade Chronicles but combat has been modified for faster gameplay, such as being able to switch between melee and gun attacks on the fly.
• Attacks on the enemy is automatic once you target them.
• There are several types of Arts, which are color coded, and each one covers a separate aspect of combat: Melee, Long-Range, Support and Shield. There are also Taunt Arts that can be used to intimidate the foe. Stronger arts require charging but weaker ones have no cool-down period.
• Players must cooperate with NPCs in combat; sometimes an NPC will indicate a specific Art to use in battle, and that Art will glow.
• Combos make Arts deal more damage and there is also a “double-cast” mechanic now which deals even more damage. Players can also target weak spots on the foe for extra damage.
• Players can charge a gauge that, when filled, lets you revive a knocked-out NPC.
• There’s a very nifty Overclocked mechanic that players can activate — it strengthens attacks and lowers the cool-down period for Arts.
• Party members can use a special Triple Cast mechanic which is incredibly powerful.
• As for enemies, players must be aware of what kind of foe they are fighting a some types will call for aid. Enemy icons will also let you know danger level, through attacking intent and level.
• Armor was shown as well, which can be purchased and customized. Wearing armor from a specific company a lot will quickly up its level.
• Players can choose from weapons such as swords, shields, javelins, guns, jetpacks and even rocket launchers. Equipment can be garnered from hunting monsters as well.
