The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia Shows Off Budokai Tenkaichi-esque Action

Nanatsu no Taizai (Japanese for Seven Deadly Sins) is gaining popularity, and as with most prominent anime these days, it’s getting a video game adaptation. Bandai Namco just released a trailer for the game, The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia, and it’s exactly what I’ve come to expect from video games based on anime shows. But that’s not a bad thing.

Judging from the gameplay trailer, The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia is going to be a 3D fighter not unlike the Dragonball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi and Dragonball Z: Xenoverse games. Most of Knights of Britannia will consist of one -on-one or two-vs-two matches between prominent characters in the anime/manga that will take place in large, destructible environments. Since some fights will involve larger characters, the game appears to be balanced so players don’t have too difficult a time fighting against a giant or feel overpowered when playing as a giant. In adventure mode, players need to collect “rumors” by either exploring the game world map or destroying fighting arenas to continue the story (which follows the manga/anime) and obtain all the playable characters. Also, adventure mode will come with side missions that don’t follow the anime/manga’s story and range from collecting objects (probably herbs) to participating in original fights.

As one might expect, The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia comes with a duel mode that lets gamers fight against one another in online matches. For the sake of balancing, though, the game’s larger characters will be unavailable in this mode, but that doesn’t stop the duel mode from looking as fast and frantic as the main game. Plus, it will allow gamers to create dream matches between characters who would never team up/fight each other in the anime/manga, which is always a good thing.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia is scheduled to release February 9th exclusively for the PlayStation 4 and will eventually receive DLC that continues the anime/manga’s story. Despite what some of you might think, this DLC will be free for all players, which means I have to applaud Bandai Namco for not trying to be as greedy as some other video game publishers who shall remain nameless.

All you have to do to get my attention is talk about video games, technology, anime, and/or Dungeons & Dragons - also people in spandex fighting rubber suited monsters.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
