Digimon Story: Time Stranger
The latest in the Digimon Story series is finally here! In this RPG, unravel a mystery that spans across the human world and the Digital World, collecting and raising a wide variety of Digimon to save the world.
What it feels like
The series consistently treats its monster-collecting adventure with sincere emotional stakes. The 'save the world' premise and monster-friendship themes carry optimistic undertones typical of the franchise.
What it's about
The core appeal is unraveling a mystery spanning multiple worlds. The Digital World setting and AI/digital entity premise place it in speculative fiction territory. Bonding with and raising Digimon companions is thematically central to the franchise.
How it plays
Turn-based combat is the foundational system in Digimon Story RPGs, structuring moment-to-moment gameplay. Collecting and raising a variety of Digimon to form a team is central to the experience. Different Digimon species with varying stats and abilities enable player customization of team composition.
How it's structured
Explicitly single-player focused experience as confirmed by Steam features. A bounded story arc spanning the human and Digital Worlds with a defined narrative endpoint. Collecting a wide variety of Digimon and completing a full campaign implies substantial playtime.
