Enjoy Deep Combat and Accessible Gameplay Systems

Combine fast-paced movements with swift attacks to chain Backflip Slashes, Air Dashes, and Dagger Throws into stun-locking Air Combos to BREAK enemies and achieve higher combo scores. TEVI’s dynamic difficulty system adapts to players’ progress, ensuring no enemy is too difficult to overcome, while presenting a challenge for quick learners. Players however can freely change the difficulty level at any time, taking on Expert mode for a true challenge, or lowering for an experience focused on the gripping narrative taking place across gorgeous environments.

Shield System: During the journey, Tevi’s two friends Celia and Sable use floating orbitars to assist the combat for ranged attacks. Besides, they can play Core Expansion to deploy a force field that can eliminate bullets, and unleash an offensive counterattack. Using it wisely will get you abundant attack opportunities.

Sigil System: A cornucopia of equipable sigils can be freely configured to create builds tailored to your preferences and playstyle. Some sigils obviously improve players’ basic stats, while others affect the playstyles and attack patterns. Various sigil builds can provide very different combat experiences.

Rating System: In TEVI, the rating system is not only for advanced players. It actually encourages every player to try different skills and combos to get a high combo score. A higher score improves attack power, and even gives special effects to some skills or combos. It is like a reward to skilled players to make battles more exciting.

FEATURES
Exciting combat system with new features. With the “Sigil” system (similar to Charms in Hollow Knight), the player can change to a different combat style and better adapt to the challenges of a particular level.

Excellent CG sequences and character design by renowned artist Ein Lee (RWBY).
