Brigandine Abyss is a grand strategy tactical RPG from Happinet, published by NIS America, with Story and Mission modes. Reviews note gameplay improvements over its predecessor but criticize flatter artwork and motion-comic cutscenes.
Brigandine Abyss is the new entry in the Brigandine series, a grand strategy tactical RPG from Happinet and NIS America. The game brings in veteran staff from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, including director Masayuki Horikawa and composer Rei Kondoh, and borrows heavily from that series' aesthetic and mechanics. The tactical RPG features a blue-haired protagonist, laguz-like monsters, and grid-based combat, positioning itself as a Fire Emblem-like revival of the cult franchise.
The game offers Story and Mission modes, and reviews indicate it improves on its predecessor's gameplay with quality-of-life improvements and a stronger story focus. However, the same review criticizes the flatter, more generic artwork and motion-comic cutscenes as a step back from The Legend of Runersia. The visual presentation is the main point of contention, while the mechanical and narrative side is seen as a step forward.
