■ New Rule: Skill Battle

“Skill Battle” is a new rule that appears in Puyo Puyo Chronicle, where players can form a team from a maximum of three characters, and advantageously advance the battle by effectively using the “skills” possessed by each character.

 There are two types of skills. “Auto Skills” are automatically triggered when certain conditions are met. “Special Skills” consume MP and are triggered with the X button.

There are various types of Special Skills, from skills that change the state of the puzzle field to skills that recover HP. You can choose which character’s skill to trigger by using the L and R buttons, so you can trigger a skill that best fits the situation. When you meet certain requirements, your skills will also rank up and attain an even greater effect.

 For players who aren’t good at puzzle games, you’ll be able to defeat enemies by developing your characters and triggering skills that best fit the situation.

The latest Sega-Nama broadcast features 14 minutes of gameplay from Puyo Puyo Chronicle, including both the “RPG Mode” and Skill Mode.
