==Gameplay== | |||
Much like in its preceding iteration ''[[Kingdom Hearts χ]]'', players are able to create and customize their own unique [[Player (KHχ)|characters]]. Gameplay primarily takes place in a hand-drawn, two-dimensional overworld areas that players can explore and navigate, interact with NPC's, open chests for prizes, and by coming into contact with wandering [[Heartless]] initiate battles. Battles are a hybrid of the quick-paced, action-based combat familiar to the series and a more traditional turn-based combat system. By tapping a single enemy on the screen - or swiping to hit multiple enemies - players can deal basic damage. Rapidly tapping or swiping results in a quick combo. After the combo is complete, the enemy takes their turn. Normally the player character always attacks first upon engaging an enemy, but certain scripted factors may allow the enemy to attack preemptively. | |||
Players can install [[Medal_(KHUχ)|Medals]] into their Keyblades to strengthen them and gain access to powerful special abilities for use in battle - during battle, the Medals are displayed in the Keyblade carousel on the bottom left corner. By touching the medal and dragging it to the center of the screen, players can activate the Medal's special ability. Doing so uses up a combo slot and consumes ''Ability Points'', displayed in the Ability Gauge next to the Health bar. Players can purchase new Medals from the Moogle Shop with Jewels, or earn them in Quests and special Events. | |||
Each individual Medal can be leveled up and upgraded, granting it new abilities, traits, and status boosts. By maxing out a Medal's Bonus Damage percentage, their ''Nova'' ability is automatically upgraded. By tapping the Nova icon on the right side of the screen during battle, players can unleash their powerful Nova ability on all enemies; it costs no combo slots or Ability points, but it can only be used once per Quest. Additionally, certain especially powerful Medals have their own unique "Supernova" abilities. By holding the Supernova icon (located next to the Nova icon), players can select the Supernova Medal and unleash the attack. Like Nova blasts, it costs no combo slots or Ability points but can only be used once per battle. | |||
In addition to customizing their own avatars, players also have access to a [[Dream Eater]] [[Pet]]. Aside from customizing the Pet's appearance and name, players can also equip them with unused Medals to level them up. The higher the Medal's individual rank, the more levels the Pet gains. With each level, they gain useful support abilities and traits they can bring into battle. Additionally, having an active Pet gives the player a sixth Medal slot to use in battle. The damage multiplier offered by the sixth slot depends on the Pet's level. | |||
===Coliseum=== | |||
Once players reach a certain point in the main story, they gain access to the [[Olympus Coliseum]], which is divided into two categories: PVE and PVP. In PVE mode, they battle waves of enemies in a series of increasingly challenging gauntlets. Clearing the blocks earns Coliseum Coins, which can be used on the Coliseum boards to earn prizes. In PVP mode, players create a new Keyblade equipment set (typically with certain weekly restrictions) and face off against "hologram" data copies of other players, controlled by the in-game AI. Players each take turns dealing damage to one another - after both players complete their turns, whoever dealt more damage wins the round. When a player wins two out of three rounds they win the match. | |||
===Union Cross=== | |||
Players can undertake online cooperative Quests, either with their own Party members or random strangers, to earn Cross Coins, which can be used on the Cross boards to collect prizes. The Quests are all done in real-time, much like in a {{w|MMORPG}}, however once a player engages the enemy it turns into the traditional turn-based system. Union Cross Quests typically have timed bonus challenges that will appear randomly in the quest - clearing it within the time limit increases the number of Cross Coins all players earn. | |||
