Astrae Oratio director Lim Jonggyu details new mobile RPG at TGS2026
At Tokyo Game Show 2026, Lim Jonggyu, the game director for Astrae Oratio, shared insights into the development of the upcoming smartphone RPG. Developed by Dynamis One, the game is set in a fictionalized Tokyo and blends themes of magic with administrative duties.
Lim explained that the combat system is designed to capture the tension and satisfaction of fighting games like Street Fighter and Tekken, focusing on player-driven combos within a PvE environment. Additionally, the game features a 'Free Time' mode that reinterprets the social mechanics of 1990s dating simulations to foster character relationships.
The game utilizes a day and night cycle to transition between mundane daily life and supernatural events. Lim noted that the development team, influenced by 90s and 2000s Japanese culture, aims to reinterpret retro aesthetics for modern players through full voice acting and 3D visual effects.
