Announcement (18/11/09)

A new video has been released for Resonance of Fate. The latest features solely on the costume change functions throughout the game.

The movie features some of what we already know, but in more detail. You can change ones headwear, dress attire, even to minor details such as ones eye color, both don't need to be the same either.

After a sequence of dress rehearsal the movie moves onto a battle and story scene, with the characters in their new look. Showing that such changes are interactive with every aspect of the game. If you love customisation, then this is sure to be a treat!
