Everything We Know About Threads of Time
Threads of Time Story Plot
Threads of Time invites players on a journey through time, spanning from the prehistoric era to the distant future. As you traverse these diverse epochs, you'll uncover a rich tapestry of interconnected stories and unravel the secrets that shape civilizations.
According to the game's website, in the year 2,400 AD, the world is shrouded in rumors of a looming purge, casting a dark shadow over humanity's future. In the prehistoric era, 12,000,000 BC, you'll encounter colossal creatures like krakens and even have the opportunity to feast with Vikings and play with baby dinosaurs.
The Middle Ages, set in 1,000 AD, presents a world oppressed by the Grand Duke of Achren. As the common folk turn to smuggling and piracy, you'll take to the skies aboard the rugged airship Bandicoot, evading corrupt officials and seeking the legendary Pirate King's relics.
Finally, the Apocalypse era plunges you into a world ravaged by catastrophe. Forced to seek refuge in underground cities, humanity clings to survival amidst the ruins.
As you journey through these disparate time periods, you'll assemble a party of charismatic heroes from across the ages, each with their own unique skills and personalities. Together, you'll work to restore the ancient Order of the Time Knights and defend the timeline from impending chaos and corruption.
Threads of Time Gameplay
Inspired by classic JRPGs like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy, Threads of Time blends the nostalgic charm of retro gaming with modern visuals.
Combat in Threads of Time evokes the timeless, turn-based battles of old, but with a twist: the ability to manipulate time itself. It is currently unclear how this mechanic will work, but the game's website states that by doing so, you can unleash powerful combos and devastating team attacks. Each battle is a visual feast, with dynamic animations that make every spell and sword swing feel satisfying. Knowing when to unravel your enemy's defenses and when to strike with full force is key to your success.
Threads of Time Characters
Threads of Time currently boasts a roster of seven playable characters. While five of these heroes have been introduced on the game's website, the remaining two "shall be revealed in time." Intriguingly, based on their silhouettes, it appears that one of these characters was already featured in the Threads of Time TGS 2024 trailer. This hero seems to hail from the Apocalypse era, perhaps accompanied by a trusty rusty robot.
The confirmed playable characters include:
⚫︎ Rye | 1,000 AD: A skilled young swordsman whose origins are a mystery even to him
⚫︎ Luna | 10,000 BC: An adventurous soul with a strong sense of justice
⚫︎ Aria | 1,000 AD: A mysterious woman that calls to Rye from beyond time and space
⚫︎ Rin | 2,400 AD: A kitsune who fights for the helpless in a future where the wealthy hold all the cards
⚫︎ Bo | 12,000,000 BC: A deft veterinarian to creatures of all shapes and sizes
