If you are familiar with the MMORPG format then Cross Worlds shouldn’t be a problem for you to get used to as an everyday hack and slash where you will also have the luxury to turn on auto-run if you don’t feel like it. The players will also be given the choice of having up to 6 skills equipped at once.

The art style has stuck true to the original Ni No Kuni games with the characters having a sort of anime and manga feel to them while having very less hard outlines. With excessively bright attack tracers, the game is sure to catch anyone’s attention who craves visual bliss in the games they play.

The game is set to have the main story along with multiple different side quests and while doing these numerous quests, players will also get to collect 100 different creatures known as Imazens which will supposedly help you during fights in either direct combat or in the form of an ability.

The story for the game is sure to boggle your mind, however. You are supposed to be a player for “Project N”, a coveted Virtual Reality game by Mirai Company, which is one of the biggest corporations in “Ichi no Kuni”. The virtual reality game that is being developed, however, has its world named “Ni No Kuni” and it seems that circumstances have led you, the player, to be transported into a virtual world where Ni No Kuni itself exists.
