Com2uS announces that “Summoners War: Chronicles” is releasing a collaboration with the anime “Slayers TRY”. In it, five characters from the Slayer universe are released as monsters in “Summoners War: Chronicles”.
The globally popular anime “Slayers TRY” is based on the light novel “Slayers” by Hajime Kanzaka. It follows the journey of the brilliant magician Lina Inverse and her group. As part of this collaboration, five “Slayers TRY” characters will be released as monsters in “Chronicles,” with each character having two attributes. The main character Lina has the attributes of fire and darkness, the swordsman of light Gourry has the attributes of water and light, the magical swordsman Zelgadis has the attributes of wind and darkness, Saillune's shaman Amelia has the attributes of wind and light, and the mysterious priest Xellos has the attributes Water and darkness. Monsters with light or dark attributes can be acquired by reaching maximum level with the respective character's affinity.
Appropriate combat concepts have been developed for all characters, preserving their original characteristics from the anime. Lina mainly uses ranged and melee attacks using magic, while Gourry fights with a sword at short range, but can also attack from a distance with the “lightsaber”. Lina, Gourry and Zelgadis will be available from March 21st, while Amelia and Xellos will be available on April 4th.
In addition, a special dungeon, the “Underground Shrine of Heretics”, and a scenario for a team quest are added. This quest tells the story of how Lina and her group came to the world of Chronicles. By completing various quests, players can enter the Underground Shrine of Heretics dungeon.
To further celebrate the collaboration, various in-game events will also take place. Until May 2nd there is a pickup summon where you can get to know the characters from “Slayers” TRY. You can also take part in a 21-day check-in event. In addition, there are rewards depending on the number of event items you received in the event dungeon, which can be exchanged for summon scrolls and various improvement materials. Additional rewards are available for completing five missions for each collaboration character.
