Tweet

Publisher Raw Fury and developer Bytten Studio have released a new trailer for the open world RPG with turn-based battles, Cassette Beasts. The trailer features the Fusion system.

"In Cassette Beasts, The Fusion system allows the player to combine any two monster forms of the 120 available in the game to generate over fourteen thousand unique combinations," reads the description to the trailer.

"Fusion works like a temporary evolution during battle, transforming your player character and chosen (human) companion into a single monster form. From then on, until you un-fuse, the two characters work as one, with combined elemental types, stats, and access to both sets of moves. Some of your opponents have access to this ability too, so you’ll need to get creative to come out ahead!"

Here is an overview of the game:

Adventure. Battle. Transform.

Collect awesome monster forms to use during turn-based battles in this indie open-world RPG. Combine any two monster forms using Cassette Beasts’ Fusion System to create unique and powerful new ones!

Welcome to New Wirral, a remote island inhabited by creatures you’ve only dreamed of, nightmares you hopefully haven’t, and a cast of brave folks who use cassette tapes to transform for battle. To find a way home you’ll need to explore every inch of the island, and record monsters to tape to gain their abilities!

Key Features:

• Transform into monsters using… retro cassette tapes? Faced with the constant threat of monster attacks, the residents of Harbourtown, New Wirral choose to fight fire with fire. Record a monster to tape, then play it back to take on its form for battle!
• Fuse monster forms. Getting close to your companion has benefits–while transformed you can combine your strengths to gain the upper hand in battle! Any two monster forms can be fused to produce unique, fully-animated new fusion forms.
• Explore a rich open world. Certain monster abilities can be used in human form. You’ll need these to help you get around, solve puzzles, and locate dungeons. Glide, fly, swim, climb, dash, or turn magnetic!
• Travel alongside a diverse cast of human companions. Never fight alone! Form bonds, spend time together, and help your selected partner complete personal goals to become a better team.
• Master a deep battle system. Take advantage of elemental chemistry to apply extra buffs or debuffs alongside your attack, or even alter your opponent’s elemental type!
