Trinity Trigger gameplay and story details
In Trinity Trigger you'll fittingly play as three main characters, young heroes out to save the continent of Trinitia. The continent was almost destroyed by clashes between the Gods of Order and the Gods of Chaos, who now choose 'God Warriors' to fight in their name instead.
Quiet young man Cyan has now been burdened with the title of 'Warrior of Chaos' who now sets out on a quest with companions Elise and Zantis to defy the gods and save his land.
The three will be accompanied by Triggers, strange creatures that can transform into eight different types of weapons that can be changed at whim during battle.
You can play solo and switch between the three main characters, or play local co-op with up to two other friends as you explore the vast world of Trinitia, clear Arma dungeons and reveal secrets by chatting with the townsfolk.
The game has drawn many comparisons to Secret of Mana - which is fitting as the two games share the same worldbuilding artist and composer.
Is there a Trinity Trigger trailer?
Yes! It nicely showcases the impressive art style as well as the fast-paced combat. Have a look below:
