Square Enix issued another news update for Lost Sphear today. The information covers the Jigan Empire, Memories, and Artifacts.

Jigan Empire
– The world’s largest country
– Its territory makes up half of the world

– Huge airship located at the base of the Imperial army
Zemlord
– Age: 40
– Imperial prime minister of Jigan
– Has the absolute confidence of the Emperor
– Strict on himself as well as others, and is feared by many
– Has the overwhelming support of both the people of the Empire and the Imperial army, so it can be even be said that he is the real leader of the Jigan Empire
– He thinks priority should be given to what can be done to enrich the lives of the people of the Empire
– If a crisis approaches the Empire, will take whatever means necessary to protect the Empire without hesitation
– Considers the existence of Kanata to be hope, but Kanata’s existence is also a realization of his own powerlessness
Galdra
– Age: 29
– Weapon: Katana
– Imperial Knights’ leader
– Protects the Emperor of the Jigan Empire

– Has been passed down for exclusive use by the leader of the Imperial Knights
– For the leader of the Imperial Knights, it is an admired Vulcosuit

– Its true worth is its capability in battle, as it can fully reproduce the movement of Galdra, a master of the katana
– Paradigm Drive: Godspeed
– Consecutively uses the selected skills by moving at a speed that leaves no openings for the enemy to attack
– It is a powerful Paradigm Drive that lets you unleash multiple skills input within a fixed period
Obtaining Memories
– In order to restore what has been Lost, or otherwise rebuild it, Memories, which can be said are the heart of existence, are necessary
– Talk to people who know of Lost people and structures / read books related to Lost things to trace Memories
– With Kanata’s “power of Memories,” those Memories can be crystallized.
– Battle monsters living in each area to acquire the Memories they possess
– You may come across Memories crystallized throughout eternity
– Often using the precious Memories obtained by these methods, Kanata and company will revive what has become Lost
– The Lost phenomenon corroding the world threatens the everyday lives of the people
– Kanata will meet many people in despair on his journey
– Even the interiors of dungeons have become Lost
– Collect Memories to be able to advance to its depths
Artifacts
– Just like Kanata and company’s hometown, the lunar bell town of Eru, important artifacts that support the lives of the people suddenly became Lost one day
– World map is scattered with traces of these Lost artifacts
– Revive / rebuild these artifacts with the power of Memories so that the range of the player’s adventure will expand
– The powers possessed by these artifacts will grant players various benefits for their adventure
– The Lost phenomenon has developed across a vast range of the world map
– Important artifacts vital for communication, such as bridges and lighthouses, have become Lost
– In addition to being able to use Kanata’s power of Memory to constructing artifacts and restore an region from Lost, by reviving the huge lighthouse here known as the Clairvoyant Lighthouse, you will gain access to a mini-map
Artifacts that Change the Game
– Different types of artifacts
– These include those that increase the number of items you can obtain, those that have a significant effect on battle, and so on
– Artifacts you create using the Memories you collect will make a difference in Kanata and company’s journey
– By constructing the “Demon Eye Lighthouse,” you will be able to see monsters’ HP and ATB gauges in battle
– By constructing the “Zone Gate,” your critical rate when using the Instant System will increase in battle
– Even if you have created an artifact already, you can use new memories to rebuild another artifact
