Digimon Adventure
(the PSP game) will cover all of the anime as well as the movie “Our
War Game”. In addition, it will also include original content, referred
to as “Sub-episode quests”.
The game can be split into
three sections—adventure, battle, and raising. Not much is known about
the “raising” aspect yet, but some specifics about the adventure and
battle sections have been released.
Between
each episode, you can choose which episode you want to see (rather than
where you want to go) from a menu. Then you select the three children
and Digimon you want on your team.
For
the most part, it seems like every episode will take place in a single
field as you explore the area and experience the events in the anime.
Digimon appear on the field similar to how they do in
Digimon World; however, the battle seems to be popular RPG fare, with a turn gauge (similar to those seen in the Atelier games or even in
Final Fantasy X)
and action choices such as Attack, Guard, Item, and Escape. It also
looks like you can evolve in battle to use stronger attacks.
It’s no surprise the main cast from Digimon Adventure
(the anime) appear in the game, but for those new to the series, here’s
a quick glimpse of four pairs of children and their Digimon.
Taichi
Yagami is an energetic boy, quite like what you’d usually expect from
shounen fare. However, on top of being courageous and athletic, he’s
also very good at taking care of the others and just being the leader of
the bunch. His Digimon, Agumon, is a rather carefree Digimon who will
charge into battle right alongside Taichi when he’s in one of his more
reckless moods.
Sora
Takenouchi is every bit as active as Taichi is—in fact they played
soccer together—but despite being the tomboy she’s also very sensitive
and ends up taking on the “older sister” role of the group. Piyomon, an
honest, sweet bird Digimon, can often be seen clinging to her side.
