The developers of the tactical RPG Sword of Convallaria decided to introduce users to their game closer and published a five-minute overview trailer. The video is divided into several parts and tells about the various features of the project, such as gameplay, graphics, story and music.
In Sword of Convallaria, you have to assemble a team consisting of various characters that belong to different classes. The video gives an example of some of the abilities of each of them. However, during the battle you will also be able to use environmental items such as exploding barrels. When attacking from a hill, there is a chance to strike at the enemy’s weak points.
The game uses the NeoPixel graphic style, combining traditional pixel art with a modern 3D engine. Modern lighting technologies are present, taking into account both the direct light source and its subtle reflection in the environment.
The game takes place in the small country of Iria, which is famous for its rich history and its mines, full of very rare crystalline ore. However, the melon resource attracted the attention of neighboring powers, which pose a significant threat to the country. As the leader of the Sword of Convallaria mercenary squad, you must free Iria from internal and external conflicts.
To create the soundtrack for Sword of Convallaria, the developers invited Hitoshi Sakimoto, who worked on FF Tactics, FFXII and Tactics Ogre. In total, more than 50 compositions were written for various maps, stories and moments, featuring a variety of musical styles.
Sword of Convallaria is available in select regions now, with a global release on PC, iOS, and Android in Fall 2023.
