Square Enix has also shared a blog post with commentary from designer Tomoya Asano and producer Naofumi Matsushita.
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millenium Tales introduces a fantastical adventure set in the world of Philabieldia—a savage land overrun by fierce beasts. When a mysterious set of ruins is discovered just beyond the protective walls of the Kingdom of Huther, humanity’s sole bastion, a young adventurer named Elliot and his fairy companion, Faie, embark on a perilous journey—one that will unfold across the fabric of space and time.
The duo Elliot and Faie will traverse a vast world teeming with enemy hordes, hidden caves and ancient ruins. Elliot can wield seven weapon types—ranging from close-quarters swords to versatile chains and sickles that can reel in enemies. Each weapon is customizable through magicite, allowing players to tailor their combat style. Faie’s powerful Fairy Actions are formidable in and out of battle, whether she’s striking enemies, retrieving hard-to-reach items, or aiding in exploration.
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales will be available in 2026. Stay tuned for more information.
**Save data cannot be transferred from the “Debut Demo” to the full version of the game.
