For console gamers (especially Switch players), the first heavyweight game at the beginning of 2022, Pokémon Legend: Arzeus, will be officially launched, with a specific date of January 28, 2022. In order to cooperate with the launch of the game, Nintendo officials have also carried out a lot of promotional activities in the near future, such as: the latest live-camera introduction film was released earlier, and the film appeared in Zhuqing Village, Combat and Capture System, Flute of the Gods and so on.
I believe that interested players are very curious about this new Pokémon game, "Pokémon Legend: Arzeus" is a game? After watching the latest introductory film, the doctor combined with some previous revelations and materials, and briefly talked to you today. Of course, the game hasn't been officially launched, so I can't be quite right.
Game background
The Story of Pokémon Legends: Arzeus takes place in the "Washed Green Region". The ancient name of the Shin-Ao area is surrounded by nature, and in the center of the Tenkan Mountain, there are many areas with different environments and various Pokémon inhabited by the mountain. In the Washcui area, there is a large village where humans gather, called "Zhuqing Village". Once the player joins the Galactic Team, they will venture out of this village as their main stronghold, complete missions, and collect Pokémon Atlas.
Not an open world game
As the base camp, Zhuqing Village has various facilities, such as grocery stores and craft shops where you can buy props, clothing shops and barber shops where you can change the hairstyle of the protagonist's clothes, and ranches where you can send Pokémon. Players are well prepared in the village and ready to go on an adventure! Once in the wilderness, we'll arrive at the small stronghold of the Middle Base Camp concept, which is the starting point for an investigation that can either restore Pokémon's stamina and craft the necessary items. Based on the above description and official information, Pokémon Legends: Arzeus is not an open-world game, and the entire game will be played in a box court manner! This is reminiscent of the mechanics of Monster Hunter.
Combat system
Although Pokémon Legends: Al Zeus is not a game like Zelda Legends: Breath of the Wild, many game systems are still different from previous Pokémon games, and the development team has innovated, such as the combat system. This time, the trainer is also involved in the battle to some extent, and needs to dodge enemy attacks before releasing his Pokémon. In other words, Pokémon Legends: Arzeus adds action elements that have not been found in previous works.
In the introductory film of Pokémon Legends: Arzeus, the development team uses the Pokémon "King" or "Queen" who is in a state of rage to show the battle process, and players need to carefully observe the actions of the "King" and "Queen", find flaws, and then "Zhenbao" to calm down. Although we don't know the specific process, it is definitely different from the previous Pokémon games, which can bring a new game experience.
Riding system
In the course of their adventure, players can obtain the incredible artifact that has been handed down from generation to generation in the Washcui area, the Flute of the Divine Flute. As long as we play this flute, no matter when, special Pokémon will appear for the protagonist to ride, such as: the antler deer, the ghost-tailed genie, the warrior eagle in the shape of the wash, etc., the scope of the Pokémon ride will be extended to the water and the air, the degree of freedom is very high! I have to say that many elements of the game are reminiscent of open-world gameplay.
Earlier, the Doctor also shared the article "The History of the Poké Ball Was Overturned?" There May Be an Answer", which introduces that the fairy ball in the washed green area is not the same as the modern elf ball. The official setting shows that around 1925, Professor Nishinomori, a carrier veterinarian at Yuhong University in Yuhong City, "Yuhong City" in the Kanto region, was the inventor of the elven ball. This setting is obviously not in line with Pokémon Legend: Arzeus, which also had elf balls in ancient times. The relevant answers should be answered in the new work. The development team racked their brains to innovate and develop an ancient version of pokémon game, which did have gimmicks, which people are looking forward to.
