When it comes to Kemco, I often find their releases to be a delightful yet predictable addition to the mobile gaming landscape. Known for their high-quality JRPGs that typically delve into high-fantasy and melodramatic themes, Kemco's latest offering, Metro Quester, breaks the mold and has piqued my interest. Set to launch on April 21st with pre-registration now open, this game promises a unique experience.
Metro Quester introduces players to a dungeon-crawling RPG set in a post-apocalyptic future, reminiscent of Dmitry Glukhovsky's works. Instead of venturing into ruins from above ground, you'll find yourself navigating the ancient metro lines of a bygone era, trapped underground in a world inspired by the likes of Metro 2033.
The game features character designs by Kazushi Hagiwara, renowned for his work on Bastard!! The Dark God of Destruction, ensuring a high-quality yet dark and gloomy atmosphere. This artistic direction, combined with the retro top-down dungeon crawling gameplay, positions Metro Quester as a standout title in Kemco's lineup.
Kemco stands out with Metro Quester, promising a rich experience with 24 characters, 8 classes, customizable weapons, a comprehensive bestiary, and more. While the game retains the familiar anime style that Kemco is known for, it's unlikely to be a point of contention for fans of the genre. If you're eager to explore something fresh and intriguing to fuel your JRPG passion, mark your calendar for Metro Quester's release on April 21st.
