Azur Promilia is the eagerly anticipated successor to the beloved game Azur Lane, but with a twist that diverges significantly from its predecessor. Instead of the familiar high-seas action, Azur Promilia transports players to an enchanting fantasy world where they can battle monsters and tame creatures to serve at their base or support them in combat.
Given Azur Lane's success and its expansion into spinoff merchandise and an anime series, it's no wonder that fans are buzzing with excitement about Azur Promilia. However, whether it will meet fans' expectations largely depends on what they were hoping for in a follow-up to Azur Lane.
A recently unveiled trailer sheds more light on what to expect from Azur Promilia. This third-person real-time RPG is set in a fantasy realm where players will face off against various fearsome beasts. Some of these creatures can be recruited to your cause through a mechanic called Starlink, which bears a striking resemblance to the creature-taming and utilization systems seen in games like Palworld. Players can set their tamed beasts to work in forging new equipment or bring them into battle for added support.
Azur Promilia represents a bold departure from Azur Lane, which could be seen as both a positive and a negative. On the positive side, it showcases Manjuu's willingness to experiment and not simply rehash the same formula. On the downside, fans who were hoping for a continuation or expansion of the world and characters they've grown to love might find themselves disappointed.
Nevertheless, Azur Promilia promises a fresh and exciting new direction for Manjuu. With a substantial amount of content planned, it's definitely a game to keep an eye on. Interested players can pre-register now on the official site.
