Draw Strength from Your Loyal Followers

 

・Foster Bonds and Acquire Followers

 

Meet people from all walks of life throughout your journey. Building strong ties with them can turn them into valuable followers who’ll support you in your quest to become king. You can also awaken new Archetypes and unlock new abilities.

 

・Learn More About Your Followers

 

By interacting with those who support your claim to the throne, you’ll unlock substories. These allow you a glimpse into their backstory. Each follower has their own story to tell and past to discover. Your interactions will strengthen your party and add rich new layers to the narrative. Take on substories at your own pace. How you choose to navigate your journey will play a huge impact on the growth of your party and the overall story.

Your Followers

While many will contest your claim to the throne, you’ll also meet loyal allies who’ll support you in your campaign.

Throughout your journey, you’ll encounter folk in need of help. Offering a sympathetic ear and aiding them in their plight can win them to your cause.
Some companions like Strohl and Hulkenberg will aid you in combat, but not all of your allies are fighters; they’ll support your claim in their own unique way.

Interacting with them and fostering bonds will be the key to discovering new Archetypes for you to wield in battle.
