Square Enix’s Visions of Mana has received a new trailer, though it’s more focused on the series’ evolution through a player’s eyes. It starts with Final Fantasy Adventure and the latter’s childhood before progressing to Secret of Mana, Trials of Mana and Dawn of Mana. Check it out below.
The trailer ends with the player, now an adult, gazing upon a billboard for Visions of Mana, the next mainline title in the series. Its story revolves around Val, who accompanies his childhood friend Careena to the Tree of Mana. Throughout the journey, they party with characters like Careena, who hales from Longren and fights with Ramcoh, a sacred beast cub, and Morley from Etaern, whose hometown was destroyed in his youth.
Though each character has unique skills, they can change to classes like Rune Knight, Dancer, Nomad and Aegis by equipping different Elemental Vessels. The Vessels also have unique effects like the Luna Globe stopping time or the Sylphid Boomerang creating wind currents, aiding exploration.
Developed by Ouka Studios, Visions of Mana is out this Summer for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PS5. Series producer Masaru Oyamada promises the “highest volume of content you can enjoy within the series”, though its playtime can change “depending on the player’s pacing.” Check out some more gameplay here.
