About this game
Travel across time and between the human world and Digital World: Iliad to investigate a looming collapse. Recruit Digimon during the adventure, then use evolution, devolution and customization to develop your partners. Battles take turns and emphasize party composition, connecting the creatures you raise with the strategies you bring into encounters. Exploration includes interactive environments and special quests, alongside the continuing investigation. The Nintendo Switch 2 version also offers Quality Mode and Performance Mode settings. Its Ver. 1.2.1 update adds a Digifarm screen for checking evolution conditions, bringing those requirements into the place where you manage your companions.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
An inviting structure for players who treat raising and reshaping a party as part of the adventure.
Evolution, devolution and customization can make team development a continuing project rather than a single selection of favourite creatures. The time-spanning investigation and exploration offer a narrative reason to keep taking those partners into new situations.
Strengths
- Evolution and devolution can encourage experimentation with a partner's development.
- Turn-based encounters give party-building decisions a direct role in combat.
Who it is for: Players who enjoy adjusting a creature team while following a story across contrasting worlds.
Play notes: Save data cannot be shared with the separately sold Nintendo Switch version, even after that version is updated.
