The Last Remnant is set in a fictional world featuring a number of distinct humanoid races; the Mitras, most human in appearance, the Yamas, strong fish-like people, the Qsitis, small reptilians, and the Sovanis, feline people with four arms. The story of the game revolves around "remnants", mysterious and coveted ancient artifacts of varying shapes and sizes which possess magic powers and which have been the cause of several wars throughout the game's history. As Remnants come in varying forms, all cities throughout the world have one that their ruler is bound to that assist to govern and bring peace to their assigned realm.
For example, Athlum has the Valeria Heart; a gigantic sword set in the middle of the Town Square. It governs courage and gives all those it surrounds the strength to stand up for their rights. David, the ruler of Athlum also is bound to the Gae Bolg; a weapon Remnant that is shaped like a cannon and can deliver devastating effects on the battlefield.
Ten cities have been revealed for the world of The Last Remnant which are Athlum, Balterossa, Celepaleis, Ghor, Royotia, Melphina, Nagapur, Baaluk, Elysion, and Undelwalt. They all have their own monumental Remnants.
Game Features
The Last Remnant features a brand new battle system labelled by Hiroshi Takai
(director) as a "Turn-based, command-based system using symbol encounters." There are no random encounters.It also contains quick time events, sequences where the player must press a combination of buttons with a correct timing to defeat enemies. Pressing a correct button on the correct timing increases the battle effect and increase the damage too. Also,the next player attacking will also be pushed up on the action list.
In addition to the main character, the player's team (called a "Union") is composed of a number of soldiers whose skills vary according to different parameters. One parameter is the "morale" bar, which is affected by the events in battle and affects the way characters perform in battle. Battles can involve up to 70 enemies at once and are at the core of the gameplay. Nobuyuki Ueda has commented on the battle system, claiming that it is "much deeper than the few seconds it received in the movie".Additionally, a high number of quests are expected.
