Hello brave warriors! With Asterigos: Curse of the Stars nearing its release on PlayStation, we wanted to give you a little more detail on gameplay, locations, and monsters. These insights will prepare you for the locations and enemies that await you in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars, so you’ll be ready for battle when the time comes.
World of Asterigos
The city of Aphes is a sight to behold in its grandeur and sprawl. From outskirts and marketplaces to military academies and shimmering mines, each zone of the world offers a unique visual experience, challenging battles, and boss encounters.
Beneath the city lies a unique hub that connects all regions of the world and is the starting point for your adventures. shelter It gives Hilda a safe place to go back. Here you can get new quests from the Adherents, access the document archives and vaults, talk to the blacksmith, visit the shop, and even find his sparring partner if you need some training!
There is also a lot to do in shelter, and more opportunities will be found as you progress through the game. We want players to feel a “universal connection” as they explore. So it’s not just a place to teleport and load and load, it’s where the real exploration of the city begins.
Monsters of Asterigos: Ethrus, the Dark Cult
Every corner of the city streets is filled with danger. Each district, including the surrounding area, is populated by many unique and deadly enemies, each with their own special abilities and appearances. Let’s talk about one of the enemy factions. Eslas of the Dark Cult.
These cultists stray from the doctrine of the God of the Stars, believing that only the wild appeal of the beast can save them from their doom. To do so, they perform a magical “rite of ascension”, transforming them into werewolves and other mythical creatures. This ritual allows them to use the power of the beast. The strength of a bull, the sharp fangs and claws of a wolf, the swift wings of a bird.
Using Starlight, a magical mineral used to power many things in Aphesian life, some cultists were able to create powerful spells such as Chain Fireball and Shockwave. Cultists often ambush or attack from blind spots, so remember to use extreme caution when traversing cities. will be
Battle style adjustment
Hilda is skillful and wields six weapons: a sword and shield, a magic staff, a dagger, a magic bracelet, a battle hammer, and a spear. She can use any of her two weapons simultaneously in combat and change them on the go depending on the situation. Each weapon has its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, when fighting enemies armed with small arms, using a shield against them can be an advantage as their attacks can be easily blocked.
However, it is much more effective than a sword against those equipped with shields and strong armor, as its powerful blows can easily penetrate an enemy’s defenses.
All weapons Hilda can wield can be freely combined to better adapt to battlefield conditions. But most importantly, you can take advantage of the unique features and enhancements of various weapons to create your own fighting style!
descend into the depths
During her journey, Hilda not only explores the surface of the city of Afes, but descends into ancient caverns full of mystery and danger where the locals have mined the magical mineral Starlite. Minerals shine and illuminate just like the stars themselves. Hence the cave got its name. Glittering Abyss.
The history of the Glittering Deeps is so ancient that even the modern historical chronicles of Aphes fail to trace its history. There are even ancient ruins suggesting that there was once another, even older city at the site of present-day Afes. The Glistening Strait, shrouded in many mysteries, is a dangerous place for adventurers.
deep sea monster
There is a magical anomaly in the deepest depressions, and many cliffs come to life and act hostile to anyone who dares enter here. In addition to stone creatures, “crystallized monsters” also live here. Its appearance blends in well with its surroundings, lurking within crystals to track down its next prey, posing a real danger.
One of these fearsome creatures is called I can not breathe.
Breathless is a fearsome stone creature with a very hard and sturdy body, capable of harnessing the magical powers of Tranquilite, whose body is also partially formed. , is dangerous even in long-range combat. Not only does he attack with giant stone arms, but he unleashes a barrage of different projectiles, including homing his missiles, cannon beams, and exploding rocks.
His only weaknesses are his slow movement of being and the time it takes to prepare all his attacks.
