You’ll have a choice between nine (!) different creatures, each with a different elemental typing. Faced with your own mortality, a stranger appears from nowhere and offers you your first Nexomon. At your side will be a cat-like creature, named Coco, that will do the talking for you because your character is more of a silent protagonist.Īs you and Coco travel deeper into the forest, you are suddenly attacked by a dragon. The first step in that journey sees you venturing into the forest to find your first Nexomon. Soon you’ll be informed that it’s a big day as you and a group of other kids will soon set out to become tamers. After you decide what character model you’ll be looking at throughout the game, you’ll find yourself waking up in the orphanage you grew up in. So, there’s no customization, but there is a decent variety of default looks. The real question is, can any game truly fill the shoes or live up to the heavyweight that is Pokémon? Well, I’m ready to find out.Īs Nexomon: Extinction begins, you’ll get to choose from a handful of predetermined looks for your character.
I’m a big Pokémon fan and I’ve exhausted nearly all the content that the franchise has to offer, so I thought I’d branch out and try some other monster capturing games. Nexomon: Extinction is a game I’ve been planning on playing for a while now. Platforms: PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Nintendo Switch, Android, Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Mac, and iOS
