Lost Sphear – PS4, PC, Switch – Jan. 23
In 2016 Square Enix’s new studio, Tokyo RPG Factory, released their first title with I Am Setsuna. The title was a throwback to the nostalgic JRPGs of the ’90s, with a turn-based combat system similar to Chrono Trigger and a story reminiscent of Final Fantasy X. A year later we’re seeing the developer’s second title, Lost Sphear.
Lost Sphear retains many of the elements that I Am Setsuna had, and still keeps the focus on emotional storytelling. You follow a young boy named Kanata, who wakes up from a dream to find his small village disappearing. It’s then up to him and some new friends to save the world by converting their thoughts into actual matter. As an extra surprise though, you’ll also gain the ability to pilot mech suits and battle enemies with them.
