Gameplay and Story Changes
As with the previous Deadly Playtest, you'll be able to play TRIBE NINE’s story from Chapter 0 up until the climax of Chapter 1. But a myriad of changes based on your feedback come packed in Deadly Demo! The following are some of the updates you'll find in the demo:
| Gameplay Updates |
|---|
|
・Refined Battle Camera. The locking system and camera behavior have been overhauled to make fighting more intuitive. ・Dash Action. This new dash action allows you to approach and retreat from enemies more swiftly, streamlining battle engagement and disengagement. ・Evasive Actions. Using the new “Evasion Gauge,” evasive actions require a cooldown period before you can use them again. The Evasion Gauge has a maximum limit that varies by character. As long as you have gauge remaining, you can continue to execute evasive actions. ・New Tension Cards and Effect Changes. A Tension Card effect lets a character consume more Evasion Gauge when performing an Attack Action to increase damage output. ・Improved Game Progression. The structure of map exploration and events have been changed to amp up the difficulty of strategic planning and battles. The correct reactions to enemy attacks from the very first encounter are required. Moreover, Action Skill 2 will now be available from the start of the game. ・Chain Skill Changes. Previously, chain skills required specific impairments to be executed between team members, which significantly limited team formation options. Now, in addition to impairments, chain skills can be executed with a certain probability when any impairment is activated.. |
| Story Updates |
|
・Unlocking Gacha. The contents and starting points have been changed for the entirety of Chapter 0 and the beginning of Chapter 1. Moreover, the time it takes to unlock the Gacha and free-roaming have been reworked. |
Please note that Deadly Demo is a client that is still under development, and so the audio will not be available during some parts of your playthrough. Rest assured the official release version of TRIBE NINE will be fully voiced!
