Square Enix has released I am Setsunaā€™s E3 2016 trailer ahead of the show. The two minute video offers a look at some story segments and world map traversal, but more importantly spends quite a bit of time going over the gameā€™s battle system.

 

Battles in I am Setsuna are turn-based and inspired by Chrono Trigger. Players are given a three character party. Characters have Techs, special skills they can employ, and can work with other allies for Team Combos. Some of the abilities used in the trailer are X-Strike, a Team Combo executed by two characters, and solo Aerial Strike, Charge, Cross Cutter, Cyclone, and Demi Techs. As you attack, an SP Gauge will fill. Once itā€™s full, that character can go into Momentum Mode and press the square button during an attack to inflict additional damage or a status effect on an enemy.

 

I am Setsuna will appear on the PlayStation 4 and Windows PC in both North America and Europe on July 19, 2016. It will be $39.99. People who pre-order through Steam will get a song composed by Tomoki Miyoshi.
