During Nintendo’s Partner Showcase this week, Square Enix announced its new HD-2D RPG title The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales<\/a> would be coming to Switch 2 this June<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ahead of this, it has announced it will be making some changes to the game based on previous demo feedback<\/a> from players. Here are the adjustments on the way:<\/p>\n

\n

“Based on the feedback from the post-play survey of the debut demo released on Nintendo Switch 2, we will be making the following adjustments.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    \n
  • Increase in Elliot’s Movement Speed<\/em><\/li>\n
  • New Difficulty Levels<\/em><\/li>\n
  • Expanded Convenience Features for Magicite<\/em><\/li>\n
  • Adjustment to Weapon Shortcut Menu Behaviour<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    If you haven’t already played the ‘Debut Demo’, you can access it from the Switch 2 eShop. Here’s some additional information about what it offers:<\/p>\n

    \n

    This \u2018Debut Demo\u2019 is designed to give you a sense of the exploration and action you\u2019ll experience in the game, so expect plenty of crunchy combat, spooky caves and all kinds of secrets hidden around.<\/p>\n

    See a crackable wall? Blow it to smithereens with a bomb and you might discover a Secret Treasure Route- a small dungeon you can explore for valuable rewards.<\/p>\n

    Perhaps you\u2019ll find a Shrine of Life – these optional challenges put your combat and traversal skills to the test. Perhaps you\u2019ll find valuable loot like magicite or money. Always remember – this is a game that rewards the curious.<\/p>\n

    Or, you could follow the quest markers and delve into a deadly swamp, and the Unexplored Ruins beneath. This multi-level dungeon is full of dangers – so be sure to use everything you\u2019ve learned to find your way through.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
