Tales of Zestiria producer Hideo Baba has shared first details of the RPG’s protagonist, and dropped some interesting hitns about its story and battle system.
In a Famitsu interview translated by Siliconera, Baba confirmed Tales of Zestiria will use an “evolved” form of the current “linear-motion” battle system, and focus on swords and magic. That said, the producer also said it will feature a “big surprise”
Story-wise, dragons are going to be an important element. Baba didn’t say what role the beasts will play, but did hint that Zestiria’s treatment may differ from traditional depictions, where dragons are arbitrarily good or evil, or act as symbols.
