Tower of Fantasy isn’t a new game; in fact, this title first launched in China late last year before finding its footing in the West just a few weeks ago. With games like Genshin Impact already approaching the two-year mark and players likely searching for a new shared world gacha game to sink their teeth into, Tower of Fantasy could not have come at a better time. On paper, Hotta Studio's debut title looks like it should be everything miHoYo’s hit F2P game is and more–adding in mounts and featuring a distinct focus on MMO elements like PvP. However, in practice, none of its core components ever amount to anything exciting or worthwh

Huma wields the Molten Shield V2 weapon and is most suited for a tank role. She uses the element of flame, which sets the target on fire for 8 seconds, dealing damage over time (DOTs) every second when the weapon is fully charged. The special thing about Huma's weapon is the fact that it can either take the form of a shield or an axe. When the weapon is an axe it does deal higher damage than the shield form, but both versions of the Molten Shield V2 knock the enemy b

Tower of Fantasy is also open-world as it is branded as an MMO gacha game. In both games, players can wander around the environments as much as they want to, and can take their time appreciating the scenery. When playing Tower of Fantasy , it's clear that they lean more towards a sci-fi fantasy type of environmental design, rather than the magical, naturistic style of Genshin Impact's world. It's a joy to explore both worlds, and it's easy to spend hours wandering through each area while trying to find chests and hidden rewa

Alhaitham luckily has quite a few weapons that work for him, including a few easily-obtainable and Free-to-Play 4-Stars. As a Main DPS, he will benefit greatly from any weapons that increase his CRIT Stats or Elemental Mastery , as you'll want to make sure he's creating powerful Elemental Reactions. Here are some of the weapons we recommend picking up for Alhait

Tower of Fantasy players can create their very own customized characters too, something that Genshin doesn't allow. Tower of Fantasy doesn't slack on the character design elements either, and while the aesthetics are different between Genshin Impact and Tower of Fantasy , they're certainly appeal

Players can also use the Thunderblades in the air with the Sky Flurry move, which is an airborne attack that can be done 4 times in a row, dealing up to a total of 98.5% equal to the player's attack stat. Crow's hold attack is called Rapid Lunge, which can be performed when pressing attack 3 times, followed by holding the attack button. This deals damage to the enemy as well as knocking them into the

Toukabou Shigure will give Alhaitham a base increase of 36 to his Elemental Mastery. Its Bonus Skill, after an attack hits opponents, will inflict an instance of Cursed Parasol upon one of them for 10 seconds. This effect can be triggered once every 15 seconds. If the enemy is taken out during Cursed Parasol's duration, its Cooldown will be refreshed immediately. Alhaitham will deal 16 percent more DMG to the enemy affected by Cursed Parasol. If you were able to obtain Toukabou Shigure from the Akitsu Kimodameshi Event, we highly recommend giving it to Alhaitham if you don't have his signature weapon. It will greatly increase the damage he deals from Elemental Reacti

One of anime Games patch Notes's most beloved robots gets the spotlight in this beat em' up video game. Astro Boy: Omega Factor follows Astro Boy's classic tale of being brought back to life as a robot after a tragic car accident. The story is told with a movie-like progression with its flow and noir-like visuals.

It was a memorable time when Genshin Impact first made it into the video game scene. As a free-to-play action RPG that had anime influences behind it, there's no doubt that audiences flocked to this game right when it became readily available. And, truly, Genshin Impact rightfully deserves this amount of praise.

As with most Main DPS characters, increasing Alhaitham's CRIT Stats is important to dealing a considerable amount of damage from his Dendro attacks. Elemental Mastery, as stated before, is essential for Alhaitham's build, so you'll want to increase this as w

With this team, Alhaitham will receive a large increase to his Elemental Mastery from the Gilded Dreams set since there are two characters with differing Elements. This team will also be able to create the Bloom, Hyperbloom, and Quicken Reactions to enhance Alhaitham's damage when he is on the fi

Ultimately, Tower of Fantasy feels like a haphazardly put together imitation of Genshin Impact that can't find its footing in either gameplay or story. The best parts of the game are its extensive character creator and lovely open world, which evokes the same Breath of the Wild art style that surprisingly few games have yet to nail. But then it punishes players that want to see every corner of it with time-gated chests and missions. A sense of stiffness also permeates multiple aspects of the game, making it difficult to play for long periods of time on top of the game's systems regularly pushing against players who want to do more. Tower of Fantasy will be a challenging game to stick with in the long term and gives little reason for why players should jump ship to planet Aida over much more expansive and polished free-to-play gachas currently on the mar
