Item Description

DragonSword : Awakening is an anime-style open-world action RPG set on the Continent of Orbis, combining 19 playable Heroes, Status Ailment-based tag-team combat, collectible Familiars, cooking and exploration, and a story centered on a Dragon that awakens 60 years after once bringing the continent to the brink of destruction.

DragonSword : Awakening takes place on the Continent of Orbis, a colorful fantasy world brought to life with Unreal Engine 5. Sixty years ago, a Dragon nearly destroyed the continent before six legendary Heroes rose to stop it. Now, the Dragon has appeared once again, and a new generation must follow the footsteps of those legendary Heroes and uncover the secrets surrounding their legacy. The adventure follows Lute and his mercenary companions as they face the returning threat and seek to become the Heroes capable of saving Orbis.

Players can freely explore the world on foot, traveling through meadows, hidden cellars beneath watchtowers, deep seas containing treasures, caves, and dungeons. The world also offers activities beyond combat, including collecting ingredients for Cooking, helping local residents with their problems, and forming bonds with the many characters who inhabit Orbis.

Combat is built around a distinctive tag-team system involving 19 Heroes. Each Hero possesses unique Status Ailment abilities, allowing players to stack effects with Active Skills before chaining them into powerful Signal Skills. Switching Signals allows Heroes to move in and out of battle during combos, giving players the freedom to create different team combinations and combat styles.

The adventure also features collectible Familiars that accompany players throughout Orbis, while the game's character-driven story explores the backgrounds, factions, relationships, and hidden stories of the Heroes and other inhabitants of the continent.
