Today has a big update for Chrono Odyssey as we get ever closer to the next testing phase of the incredibly anticipated MMORPG. Today, the team revealed the Matrix System, the Supporter System, Monster Equipment, and loads more.
Headlining the update is the Matrix System, a node-based character progression system that replaces linear pathing with branching combat specialization. Each weapon now splits into distinct playstyles, and since every class wields multiple weapons, players will have many unique combat styles to explore — further shaped by stat allocation, passive skills, and gear attributes.
Take a look at the videos below, and the full notes on Steam!
