In typical Wizardry fashion, you make your way through the Abyss\u2019s dungeons as you level up your party, replenish stocks in towns, fight battles and collect items.\u00a0 According to Drecom, Variants Daphne\u2019s key feature is its completely first-person perspective, which ups the realism of monster attacks, floor traps and other aspects of dungeon exploration.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mobile version of the game has seen much success so far, <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/wizardry-variants-daphne-performs-strongly-on-mobile-ahead-of-steam-release-exceeding-developers-expectations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">exceeding Drecom\u2019s expectations in terms of revenue<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1354\" height=\"759\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1354px) 100vw, 1354px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-003.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-003.jpg 1354w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-003-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-003-768x431.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Steam version is playable in landscape mode (1920&#215;1080 px) and comes with controller support. If you\u2019ve been playing either of the game\u2019s mobile versions, you can link up your existing account to the PC version with all your progress intact. To commemorate the Steam release of Wizardry Variants Daphne, Drecom is giving out 2,000 Gems of Org to all players.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an aside, Wizardry Variants Daphne boasts an impressive development team, with Fire Emblem and Pok\u00e9mon artist Yusuke Kozaki in charge of character design and game OST legend Hitoshi Sakamoto composing the music. In addition, the title\u2019s monster designs are credited to Katsuya Terada of Zelda and Tekken fame.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1350\" height=\"745\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1350px) 100vw, 1350px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-001.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-001-380x210.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250306-45309-001-768x424.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Wizardry Variants Daphne is out now on PC (<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/2379740\/Wizardry_Variants_Daphne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>), iOS and Android.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On March 6, Drecom released the Steam version of Wizardry Variants Daphne, the latest entry to the Wizardry series.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55,"featured_media":45312,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-45309","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
