Infinity Knights: Xross Launches Kickstarter

Australia-based Timesea Studio has launched the crowdfunding campaign for Infinity Knights: Xross, an action co-op RPG patterned after Square’s Mana series. We’re actually getting a Mana game this year but…why not two? Hiroki Kikuta, the composer of Secret of Mana, has been hired to make the music for this game, adding an extra touch of authenticity. The Xross of Infinity Knights: Xross is the newest member of an elite group of soldiers who bear The Armaments: weapons capable of reviving slain enemies. You’ll explore both static and randomly-generated dungeons on your quest to save the kingdom from an ancient enemy that has risen again. “There always seemed to be a missing pixel game from our childhood that involved dynamically evolving and strategic, active combat, and we hope to bring that to our audiences through Infinity Knights: Xross!” says Timesea Studio developer Saxon Goodrick. “We were inspired by titles such as Dark Cloud, Final Fantasy XI, and the Mana series to create something that combined the best parts of all our

"Thought-provoking stories" and optional lore quests? You had me at hello! I love delving deep into a game's world and uncovering its secrets. The whole reviving enemies with the Armaments thing sounds like it could lead to some fascinating moral dilemmas, too. Can't wait to see how they explore that in the narrative.
