Everything you like about Ni no Kuni, anytime, anywhere
Cross Worlds is a zero-compromise mobile game. Powered by Unreal Engine 4, Ninokuni’s unique art style is more vibrant and colorful than ever. Explore Evermore’s rolling fields, sparkling lakes and sprawling castles, including unique locations such as King Grove Autumn Forest. It’s all brought to life by an exciting soundtrack by world-renowned Studio Ghibli composer Joe Hisaishi, who has worked on films such as Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle. It’s a full-fledged RPG experience, carefully designed for your phone.
Choose from one of five customizable classes
Ni no Kuni’s latest adventure can be enjoyed from the perspective of five different classes. Smash your foes as the mighty Destroyer, his incredible strength and hammer-wielding skills belie his sensitive nature and love of flowers. Alternatively, you can play as a witch who uses spells and magical floating spears to attack her enemies. Other classes include the dueling swordsman, sneaky thief and gadget-obsessed engineer who bombards enemies with her flintlock and can manipulate time itself to heal and enhance her allies!
Engage in spectacular real-time battles
Adventure in Ni no Kuni: Across worlds flows seamlessly between exploration and combat. In combat, each class can destroy enemies with 5 unique class abilities. For example, a Rogue can dazzle enemies with her dazzling sun flare, then turn them into a pincushion with a rain of arrows. Meanwhile, the Swordsman can slice through enemies with his Spinning Swords attacks, then finish them off with his fiery ultimate ability, the Magic Sword Cut. You’ll combine these abilities to fend off hordes of enemies in fast-paced battles and defeat huge bosses in spectacular encounters as you travel through the world of Ni no Kuni.
Play with friends and build your own kingdom!
The adventures of Ni no Kuni can be experienced in single player or in multiplayer co-op, and the journey goes far beyond the main story. Players can not only team up to explore exquisite dungeons, fight powerful wild bosses, but also form their own special kingdom. Forming kingdoms offers special rewards and adventure opportunities, including unique kingdom dungeons. But be careful! Your kingdom may be attacked by monsters from other realms and you will have to defend your kingdom in epic tower defense battles.
Collect cute familiars and deploy them in battle
Even if you decide to play Cross World solo, you don’t have to explore alone. On your journey, you will be accompanied by familiars, lovely and powerful magical creatures who will fight alongside you. There are a large number of familiars in Cross Worlds. The cute snow rat Polarin. Powerful earth element Petromaton. Rimu, the sentient teddy bear, tries to scare enemies with his dinosaur costume. There is something for everyone in Cross Worlds, which you can acquire by summoning new familiars or simply exploring the world.
Build your own farm and harvest crops
If you need a break from exploring and fighting monsters, Ni no Kuni: Crossworld lets players build their own farms. Here you can grow and harvest various crops and use them to craft unique items. Not only that, but your farm also doubles as a home for the familiars you collect through the game, letting them run free when they’re not with you in battle.
Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds launches May 25th on iOS and Android. Players can pre-register for the game through the official website or the official Discord channel. Players who pre-register through the App Store will receive a unique Explorer suit, while those who pre-register on Discord will receive a special title and an elaborate Catarumpus Hat.
