Eight travelers. Eight adventures. Eight roles to play in a new world
brought to life by Square Enix. Explore each traveler’s story and use
their abilities in and out of battle. Will you expand your horizons as
the Merchant or track down a traitor as the Warrior? Where will you go?
Who will join you? You alone can choose your path.
Step into the shoes of a traveler to inherit their struggles and
strengths. Use each character’s special abilities to interact with the
world and enhance your tactics in turn-based battles. The Dancer’s
alluring charm leads followers into battle, whereas the Apothecary can
mix items to heal allies or unleash explosive attacks. Discover enemy
weaknesses and target them to break through their defenses. Store Boost
Points with each turn and then spend them at strategic times to
strengthen abilities, chain attacks, or provide aid. Choose the path you
wish to walk and discover what lies beyond the horizon.
