"According to the trailer, the game takes place in a land called Philabieldia that's overrun by beasts, where humans must use a spell of safekeeping to keep their only remaining city, the Kingdom of Huther, safe from invasion. The titular Elliot is tasked with exploring a set of newfound ruins beyond the walls alongside his fairy companion Faie. Unknown to them, though, they will come across a door that will take them on a journey that spans thousands of years."
"Gameplay largely revolves around using the best weapons, like swords, bows, chains, and sickles, to take advantage of enemy weaknesses and give players access to unique play styles. There are seven weapons in total, and each can be strengthened with different combinations of magicite. Your fairy buddy can also attack and collect items, and be controlled either by you or a friend."
"It looks like a mix of Secret of Mana and classic Zelda games from NES and SNES days. This could be a fun hodgepodge of the two titles, and what's more, we won't have to wait until its official 2026 release date to play it, as a debut demo should be available for Nintendo Switch 2 to download now. The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is expected to be released sometime in 2026 for the Nintendo Switch 2."
