A new trailer for Fae Tactics was revealed during the PC Gaming Show. The minute-long trailer gives players a quick glimpse into the world of the game. This Final Fantasy Tactics-like game will release on Steam and Humble Bundle this summer.
One of the most significant features of the game is menuless combat, and the new trailer shows that off plenty of times. Menuless combat declutters the action, which allows the game’s visuals to shine. The trailer also introduces Faes, which are summons that the player can conjure throughout the game. The setting of Fae Tactics is also shown off, which includes a variety of settings such as forests, deserts, towns, and mountain areas to battle. Players are introduced to combo and powerful super moves.
According to the Steam launch page, the game will “follow a young magic-user named Peony on her journey across a vibrant world full of mystery and danger.” Peony lives in a world where humans and fae creatures coexist. Tensions between the two are reaching a boiling point, which started when the world of humans and Fae merged together. Fae Tactics will bring exciting characters, and creatures to collect.
The trailer on a whole has a Final Fantasy Tactics vibe, especially that of the GBA games. Anyone craving a new tactical RPG experience should be excited about Fae Tactics. The Fae summons also bring Pokémon mechanics to the game, creating a unique mashup between Pokémon and Final Fantasy Tactics. Each Fae has its elemental property, and using the right elements to counter enemies will be crucial to winning battles in Fae Tactics.
Fae Tactics looks like it has the potential to be a fun tactical RPG. Combining Final Fantasy Tactics with Pokémon will help bring fans of those two games together. The character designs look fantastic, and the world seems fun to explore. Menuless combat looks satisfying, and it should speed up battles a little bit. However, it is still unclear just how menuless combat works from the trailer. We’ll find out soon, though, as the game launches on PC this summer on Steam and Humble Bundle, and Steam users can wishlist the game now.
