I'm hoping it's going to be a great game. New IPs usually have have a hard time in the open world action RPG category... I know I want to play it (as long as it is received well) It looks amazing running on that Unreal Engine 5 though!

I think is a very great game, with a great female protagonist. I want to play this 'action magic' game that seems to want to unite Western and Japanese sensibilities.

Game looks to have a lot of cool mechanics but everything is just blank in most of the trailers we got so far hopefully it has something good to complement all of those mechanics

I cannot wait to play this female protagonist game, Frey (Ella Balinska) performing! There are all the premises of a AAA game!
