A Journey to Each Corner of the World
In order to save the prince from his curse, the protagonist joins the race to become the king of the Kingdom of Euchronia. With powerful and influential rivals competing against him to gather the most supporters, the protagonist embarks on a half-year long journey to earn the trust of the kingdom’s citizens before the next king is decided. Will you be able to take the throne before time runs out?
Immersive Time Progression
Metaphor: ReFantazio’s calendar system adds a sense of realism to dates and deadlines. Enjoy traveling to various destinations in Euchronia—just keep an eye on your accommodation’s checkout time! Your travels will take you to all kinds of locales, including bustling capitals, rustic villages, and coastal cities. Who knows what unique locals, regional specialties, and even monsters await you there. As there is a time limit on your adventure, how you spend your days is up to you—live it up and make it the best adventure you can.
Gauntlet Runners: The Vessels of Your Journey
The wilderness between towns is no place to casually stroll into—it’s a perilous zone infested with bandits and monsters. To traverse the wilderness, you’ll need a magic-powered vehicle known as a gauntlet runner. Think of it as your massive mobile base to command. With your gauntlet runner in tow, hit the road as you travel to each stop of your campaign to become king.
Unwind in Your Gauntlet Runner
While you’re in route to your next destination, make yourself at home in your gauntlet runner, just as you might in an RV! Feel free to cook, read, converse with your allies, or even take a nap! Your gauntlet runner features a war room, kitchen, lounge, and more facilities to enjoy. From its deck, you’ll be able to feel the epic scale of your quest as you pass through Euchronia’s vistas. With lots to enjoy in your gauntlet runner, it’ll be a key part of your experience!
Stop by Various Destinations Throughout Your Journey
The Old Castle Town, Martira
In contrast to the Royal Capital’s splendor, Martira is a humble and idyllic town known for its larva-based dishes and heartwarming hospitality. While it might seem like a calm town, its people harbor unease for the giant sandworms that roam the nearby desert. With incidents of threats against Martira’s townsfolk, you and your party will need to step up and give them a hand.
Behold the Royal Capital of Grand Trad
Key events in the story kick off in the royal capital of the Kingdom of Euchronia, Gran Trad—a bustling, extravagant city inhabited by people of various tribes. However, beneath the splendor of the royal capital lies an underbelly of rampant discrimination, wealth disparity, and social injustices. Executions take place in its back alleys and the homeless are left to squat on the streets. The city teeters on the verge of chaos, poised to erupt at any moment.
