Developed by Square Enix · Published by Square Enix









Val, a Soul Guard, accompanies his childhood friend Hinna after she is chosen as the Alm of Fire. Their pilgrimage leads toward the Mana Tree, with elemental spirits and the fate of the world woven into the journey.
Travel through large, semi-open regions, fight monsters, find treasures and take on optional challenges. Pikuls provide a way to move quickly through the environment, while new routes and activities open up as the adventure progresses.
Combat combines real-time attacks, dodging and abilities powered by elemental weapons. Elemental vessels let characters change classes, weapons and fighting styles; skill grids and ability seeds offer further ways to shape their builds.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its colorful environments and character designs, along with the freedom to change classes and experiment with skills and builds. Some also appreciate its action combat, nostalgic Mana-series atmosphere, and appealing music. These strengths are not universal: reviews vary considerably on the combat and story.
