Depending on which direction you're holding the left stick in, you can get different variations of attacks too. A confusing name for an easy to pick up and play system, at its core, this essentially means you have two sets of moves at your disposal - your regular attacks, with Ludger's dual blades on the X button, and special attacks, known as 'Artes' on Circle. Talking of battles, Tales of Xillia 2 uses a system called (deep breath), the "Double Raid Linear Motion Battle System", or DRLMBS for short. It might look rather hectic, with numbers galore - but its actually rather straight-forward, we promise. Exploring the twisting and turning caverns, its a simple matter of hunting down five of the bright green dodo-like birds, and bumping into them, where the game transitions into the tradition Tales button-mashing (and in this case, bird bashing) real-time battles. Kind of like a samurai version of Bill Gates. His task? To slay five monsters in the underground caverns beneath the city, under the watchful eye of his older brother Julius, who already works for the company as a dual sword wielding badass.
#TALES OF XILLIA 2 POCKET WATCH PS3#
Sadly, we didn't have room for a debug PS3 in our bag, which is probably the only reason we've managed to find time to sit down and write about what happened instead.Īfter picking up the controller, we stepped into the (virtual) shoes of new main guy Ludger Kresnik (whose last name will strike fear into folks who've played the first Xillia), finding ourselves in the industrial Trigleph City, on the day our protagonist is to sit an entrance exam for a job at the prestigious Spirius Corporation, a large technology company. And that sounds like the recipe for a great game to us.Īt a recent event, we got to go hands-on with the first few hours of Tales of Xillia 2, and played as much as we could before they dragged us, kicking and screaming away from the console. There's a terrorist threat, known as Exodus, a good versus evil storyline, and fat cat called Rollo. With similarly stylised cel-shaded graphics, fantastic anime cutscenes, and an annoyingly catchy soundtrack, the game picks up the story roughly a year after the events of Tales of Xillia, this time in the steampunk/industrial world of Elympios, a land not far from Reize Maxia, which we explored in the original game.
