Whenever I delve into Kemco's latest offerings, I'm met with a comforting sense of familiarity. Their JRPGs consistently deliver high-quality experiences, often steeped in high-fantasy and melodrama. However, their upcoming release, Metro Quester, breaks the mold in an exciting way, and it's set to launch on April 21st with pre-registration now open.
In Metro Quester, you're thrust into a post-apocalyptic world inspired by Glukhovsky's vision, but with a unique twist: your adventure unfolds entirely underground. As you navigate the ancient metro lines of a bygone civilization, you'll experience a gripping dungeon-crawling RPG unlike any other.
The game boasts character designs by Kazushi Hagiwara, known for works like Bastard!! The Dark God of Destruction, ensuring a visually striking, albeit dark and gloomy, world to explore.
Kemco stands outThe announcement of Metro Quester genuinely piqued my interest. This title promises to be a standout in Kemco's lineup, blending a dark atmosphere with retro top-down dungeon crawling. With 24 characters, 8 classes, customizable weapons, a comprehensive bestiary, and more, there's no shortage of content to dive into.
While Metro Quester retains that familiar anime aesthetic, it's unlikely to deter fans. If you're seeking a fresh and intriguing addition to your JRPG collection, mark your calendar for April 21st when Metro Quester hits the storefronts.
