Azur Promilia, the eagerly anticipated successor to the hit game Azur Lane by developer Manjuu, is steering away from the familiar high-seas action. Instead, it plunges players into an enchanting new fantasy world where the focus shifts to battling monsters and taming beasties. These creatures can serve at your base or join you in combat, adding a unique twist to the gameplay.
Given Azur Lane's success, which includes spinoff merchandise and an anime series, there's considerable excitement around Azur Promilia. However, whether it will live up to expectations hinges on whether it aligns with what fans hoped for in a successor.
A newly released trailer provides a clearer picture of what to expect from Azur Promilia. This third-person real-time RPG is set in a fantasy realm where you'll face off against various fearsome creatures. Some of these can be tamed using a system called Starlink, drawing parallels to the popular game Palworld and its emulators. Your tamed creatures can then be employed to forge new equipment or support you in battles.
Azur Promilia represents a bold departure from Azur Lane, which can be both refreshing and challenging for fans. On one hand, Manjuu's willingness to experiment and explore new themes is commendable. On the other, it might disappoint those who were hoping for an expansion on the existing world and characters.
Nevertheless, Azur Promilia promises a fresh and content-rich direction for Manjuu. If you're intrigued, you can pre-register now on the official site.
