Story
The story of Cross Edge follows the adventures of hero and
heroine York Neely and Miki Aiba. Awaking in a strange world,
they are soon sought out by a little girl named May. She tells
them that the world around them was created from souls gathered
from other worlds and that if this stealing of souls from other
places does not stop, sooner or later those other places--that is
reality--will disappear forever. To stop this from happening they
will have to defeat this new world's evil master by releasing all
the souls now confined to his nightmare world. To do this they
will need all the special abilities that they possess, as well as
the help they will gain from others that they meet on their
travels.
Gameplay
Cross Edge is a traditional Japanese role-playing game complete
with world , random battles, level grinding, item
combining/creation using alchemy, etc. It also features heroes
and villains from game franchises published by Gust, Capcom,
Nippon Ichi, Namco Bandai and Idea Factory. As players set about
freeing the trapped souls supporting the nightmare world that
they are stuck in, they engage in turn-based team battles. This
is where the characters from previous games come in. Players must
enlist them to join in party-based battles. Success in these
battles is based on the ability to string together specific moves
into chain attack sequences, which in turn unlock even stronger
combinations when successful. Players can also increase their
characters' stats and abilities by acquiring additional costumes
called 'forms' and redressing their characters in them. Female
characters physical appearances can also be changed based on the
form they're wearing.
The goal of the game is to release souls. You can find and
collect souls by searching around area s. Exposure to souls
can grant players items or unlock events. Along with soul related
events, s will also point players to other helpful locations
such as event points, points at which other events may occur, and
save points, where you can save your game as well as buy, sell
and trade items.
Key Features
* Cross Edge combines classic RPG combat with a grid-based
Strategy RPG combat to create a hybrid battle system. In combat,
a square grid will appear beneath the units. Some units are
better at close combat and others at a distance, so players must
strategically move their units to battle enemies.
* In combat, some units can toss up enemies and chain combo
various moves for extra damage, like in a fighting game.
* By using characters from Gust titles, players can use alchemy
to craft weapons.
* Change costumes to increase character’s stats and abilities,
and in some cases revealing cut scenes.
* Explore dungeons to run, jump and attack.
* Cross Edge is bilingual. Players have the option to choose
between English or Japanese voiceovers.
* Add to your PlayStation trophy collection as you play through
the game.
