Always been interested inthis series butnecer had a 3ds. Finally ill get to play it with switch
Can someone explain what the gameplay loop is and give an idea what the adventure is like/about?
I tried to watch the cartoon but it wasnt too clear and kinda bored me honestly.
It looks like the battling is a ni no kuni / kingdomhearts real time action system.
Cartoons were always episodic with no real plotline, so no point basing or trying to get an idea from that (only exception is the Japan only Shadowside series which was plot driven)
You’ve pretty much nailed it in regards to battle style for the upcoming game. Most have been comparing it to Ni no Kuni and Kingdom Hearts which is a improvement imho over the 3ds battle system for the first two games.
In regards to the adventure, well... The first was centered around Keita/Fumiko first getting the watch and an almost episodic approach to learning more about it and the yokai as the game progressed. Second games were like a retelling of that after certain events but then also added the ability to travel between the past and present for its plot. Third game had two protagonists in different parts of the world but with an overarching plot that involved them both.
In this game, protagonists from the different worlds (original Yokai Watch, Yokai Watch Shadowside and the movie Yokai Watch Forever Friends) which are also different time periods, come together to deal with a mutual enemy rising up that threatens the human and yokai realms
