    Overview

    Record of Agarest War Zero was released in Japan on June 25th, 2009 for the Playstation 3 and in July 2010 for the Xbox 360 published by Idea Factory. It was announced on November 5th, 2010 that Aksys Games would be publishing a North American version of the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, as they did with the first game.

    This is the prequel to Record of Agarest War set 1000 years before the events of the first game. The game focuses on the broken balance of light and dark. As the dark army marches onwards the main hero Sieghart saves a girl, Mimel, becoming mortally wounded in the process. He was then saved by her, and was given her powers in the process. With these powers Sieghart accepts his new role in the conflict and throws himself headlong into war.

    Gameplay

    Combat, soul-breeding and the over-world maps are the same with changes made to other aspects of the game. Feel link, free intention and extra mode are new additions to the series.

    Differences from the First Game

    A skill card included with the Limited Edition
    A skill card included with the Limited Edition
    • There are only two generations in this game, as opposed to the five generations in Record of Agarest War.
    • Players will have the ability to choose the class, weapon, and base skill set that the main protagonist in the first generation will use. This will allow the player to choose a main character that fits their play-style the best, or give the player the ability to create a character that they think would best fit the companions that join during the game.
    • Vacation days have been added that will allow the player to choose what they want to do for one in game day. They can move around town and increase relationships with the female characters, or choose to go to different shops to gain valuable items for their time spent. The time of day will be split into day and night, and action points will be used to determine how time passes.
    • There are only 15 characters in this game, as opposed to the 34 characters that were in the first being a game.
    • Active Animation Adventure will now be used during story sequences. This makes it so that characters will blink, their mouths will move and their clothes and hair will blow in the wind. This is a change from the static character animations that were in Record of Agarest War.
    • There is a new race introduced in the game which is the Rem Lorient (a pixie type race).
    • The towns and the cities have much more interaction than Record of Agarest War

    Feel Link

    The feel link system allows the heroines costume and dialogue options can change depending on your relationship level with them.

    Free intention

    Free intention gives the player the ability to increase their relationship level with the heroine as they see fit, and this can effect the costumes and dialogue options available through the feel link system. This feature can also award the player with new items and CG. This is accessed through the town menu, and isn't limited to the one love interest that the character must choose.

    Extra Mode

    Extra mode is available after the player finishes one playthrough of the game, or the player can import a save from Record of Agarest War. This will give the player the ability to access an area called 'The Door to the Future' which makes it so the player can play with characters from the first game, as well as maps from the first game. The difficulty for extra mode is automatically set to hard, with no way to lower the difficulty. Characters that can be played from the first game are: Leonhardt and his four kids, the heroines from the first game, Ellis, and Dyshana. Other playable characters will be made available through DLC.
