In Yohane the Parhelion: Blaze in the Deepblue, Yohane sets forth into a mysterious labyrinth alongside her partner Lailaps in order to search for her missing friends. Yohane gains newfound power to save her comrades by crafting new items and traversing the dungeon. Certain areas of the dungeon will have randomized layouts, so players can expect a different experience with each playthrough.
The “Casting” system allows Yohane to create new weapons and accessories in Yohane the Parhelion: Blaze in the Deepblue. These items are crafted from materials gathered from defeated monsters. Over 90 crafting recipes are available, so players have a wide variety of items to create throughout a playthrough. This system is vital toward aiding Yohane’s quest to find her friends.
Characters from the Yohane the Parhelion: Sunshine in the Mirror anime will appear in the new title. Yohane’s companions will lend their aid as she rescues them in the labyrinth.
