Cocoa knows this is a video game and hilariously points out classic tropes throughout their adventure. Cocoa is a sarcastic, wise cracking companion that is very self aware. The comic relief comes primarily from an anthropomorphic cat named Cocoa, not to be confused as a Nexomon. Weaved seamlessly throughout are the themes of tragedy, triumph and even comedy. Nexomon: Extinction tells a powerful story of purpose and responsibility. Simply interact with one and the player can be transported to any other they have activated, which is as simple as pressing a single button upon discovery. The player is no ordinary Tamer but rather a Tamer with extraordinary responsibility and a destiny that reveals itself gradually throughout the roughly 20 hour story.īacktracking is necessary with regularity and is made easier by the use of Warpstones locates at each major region. Their journey is not as simple as defeating other Tamers for notoriety.Īn incredibly deep, well crafted and surprisingly layered journey of self discovery is at the heart of Nexomon: Extinction. The player character does not speak but their backstory is wonderfully brought to life through the dialogue of others from both within and outside the walls of the orphanage they have grown up in. The quest variety is a little generic, largely consisting of fetch quests or obtaining certain Nexomon or items for trading but their rewards are well worth the effort. The narrative that unfolds alongside this is unlike any found within other monster catching series.Īn abundance of optional side quests and trade opportunities can be found throughout the land that can be completed during and after the main story. The player, now a Tamer, registers with the Tamers Guild and must ascend through the ranks by completing quests and earning reputation points. On the surface, the story seems fairly predictable. The conclusion of this epic first battle sets in motion the adventure our hero must embark on to discover the nature of this attack.
This encounter sets up the players selection of their starting Nexomon, with 9 to choose from across an array of different elemental types, officially becoming a Tamer in the process. Within moments the player is introduced to Tyrants, wild and unruly Nexomon that are the alphas of their kind. The player starts out by selecting their appearance and name, both of which are customisable at any time throughout the game within the menu. With Omnicron defeated, Nexomon and humans co-existed in prosperity… until now. Declaring war on mankind, the humans took a stand and tamed the Nexomon, turning them against Omnicron and ultimately defeating him. A dramatic prologue opens Nexomon: Extinction that depicts the downfall of the merciless Omnicron, the tyrannical King of Monsters to all Nexomon.
