KEMCO's newest tactical RPG, Eldgear, plunges players into a world brimming with ancient technology and high-stakes conflict. Explore Argenia, a fantasy realm transitioning from medieval times to a magical age, where powerful ancient machines threaten to reignite a devastating war.
Eldgear's Story: A World on the Brink
Argenia, a land teeming with numerous nations vying for control in largely unexplored territories, finds itself on the precipice of chaos. The discovery of potent, magically-infused ancient ruins ignites a fierce struggle for dominance. While a brutal war eventually concludes, the fragile peace remains precarious, with the potential for renewed conflict ever-present.
Enter Eldia, a global task force central to the narrative. Their mission: to prevent these powerful artifacts from unleashing another catastrophic war. Eldia meticulously researches, monitors, and controls access to the ruins, striving to maintain stability.
Strategic Combat and Unique Mechanics
Eldgear boasts a user-friendly turn-based combat system offering a range of strategic options. However, its depth lies in its unique mechanics:
-
EMA (Embedding Abilities): Equip three abilities per unit, usable at any time. Strategically combine stat boosts with abilities like Stealth for tactical advantages or protective measures for allies.
-
EXA (Expanding Abilities): Unleash devastating special moves by maximizing your unit's Tension during combat.
The enigmatic GEAR machines add another layer of intrigue and challenge. Some act as protectors, while others pose a significant threat. Witness their power firsthand in the trailer below!
