  • This page is a collection of strategy and walkthrough information for The Last Remnant, a new RPG from Final Fantasy creator Square-Enix. The game is slated for release on November 20, 2008, therefore strategy information is currently limited. This page will be updated as new information becomes available.

  • How Battles Work

    The new RPG, The Last Remnant, employs a different battle system than most traditional RPGs. Rather than controlling one individual in a party at a time, players will need to group individuals into unions, which can then be controlled. There's a high degree of strategy involved in battle preparation as the members and formation of each union must be decided before the fighting begins.

    Once the battle has started, the player can choose their level of involvement. They can give their unions vague commands, such as heal or attack, and then the union will decide for itself how best to execute that command. Likewise, players can choose to "Play It By Ear," which allows the union to fully decide for themselves the best course of action based on how the battle is progressing.

    Another important element in battles is the morale of the unions. If morale begins to fall, the unions will start doing less damage and may miss more. On the other hand, if morale is good, the unions may gain attack bonuses.IGN: The Last Remnant Preview

  • The Last Remnant Walkthrough

    1. After the first intro scene, the game jumps you right into your first battle. This game is credited with a new style of turn based battling.
    2. First off you have control over multiple individual units called Unions. One by one, you will choose which character to fight with and specify an attack style.
    3. Each Union attacks together and at once.

  • Battle System

    1. When an enemy shows this icon ... above their head, it means they are unaware of you, and you can sneak up on them. This icon will change as you get closer. To engage the enemy, get close enough and press the engage button, RT.
    2. If you get close enough to an enemy they will run at you and engage you in battle. If you wish to avoid them, stay as far away as possible.
    3. The game's new battle system is called the Turnburst command-based system. There are no random battle encounters as seen in many other turn-based battle games.
    4. The more enemies you take on at once, the more danger you are in, but also the better the reward.
    5. Press up and down to choose the form of attack.
    6. Press left and right to choose who to attack.
    7. The game contains timed sequences where you must press a combination of buttons in the correct order to defeat enemies or to maximize the damage of an attack.
    8. Another new feature is the morale gauge (the large red/blue bar across the top the screen), which is affected by the events in battle and can change the way your soldiers perform in battle.
    9. The more moral you have on your side, the stronger your attacks will be. If your moral is low, your defense weakens and you deal less damage.
    10. Critical Trigger is an opportunity to hit the displayed button for a more critical hit. Pushing the button at just the right moment launches a Critical offense, causing the next unit in your party to act faster than usual.
    11. Periodically, you can capture a monster. You can either split it with another member of your party, or keep it whole for one individual. Bear in mind, splitting the monster lowers the amount you would receive for it if sold.
    12. After each battle, all your party members will heal and fully recover.

  • Walkthrough
