Dragalia Lost [a] is an upcoming role-playing video game published by Nintendo and developed by Nintendo EPD in collaboration with Cygames for iOS and Android. The game is a result between a partnership of Nintendo and Cygames to develop a new mobile game, the first game with another company after Nintendo initial partnership with DeNA in 2015 which still continues for other games on the mobile platform. Because of this partnership, Nintendo bought 5% of the stock of Cygames.[2]
Plot
The story takes place in Alberia, the kingdom where dragons live. All royal members in Alberia have the Dragon Transformation ability, where they can wield a dragon’s power by forming a pact with a dragon to borrow their form in battle. One day, a strange occurrence begins to happen in this kingdom. The Holy Shard protected by the capital starts to lose its power. In order to save his people, the Seventh Prince, who has not made a pact with a dragon, sets off on his Dragon Selection Trial.[3]
Gameplay
Dragalia Lost is an Action-RPG with simple yet technical controls, where characters attack enemies with simple and magic attacks of different elements which can be weaker or stronger than other ones. Another method of attack is a special attack where the character transforms into a dragon and can greatly damage to the enemy for a moment when they have sufficient energy that can be collected while playing or destroying statues of dragons. The characters also have their own class with Healer and Attack types being the main ones. While the game can be playable on single player, it can also be played on multiplayer with up to four players.[4]
Development
Dragalia Lost is a collaborative development between Nintendo EPD and Cygames. It was a top secret within Cygames with many of its employees being surprised that it was a collaboration effort with Nintendo. According to director Hiroki Matsuura, the game's main story comprises more than 600 thousand words in its original Japanese version due to the inclusion of character stories and sidequests, with around 100 more words for every post-release event.[5]
Reception
The game surpassed 300,000 registrations in Japan in its pre-registration period as August 2018.[6]
