The environment will involve a post war setting, with conflicts and enemies at every turn.

What Does the Lost Soul Aside Video Show
The beginning of theLost Soul Asidevideo shows the protagonist, Kazar, running around the ruins of several buildings, carrying his sword and using magic. It appears the combat will be fairly fast paced, as the player in the clip fights various creatures and foes. There are some instructions and directional indicators in the video, however, they are fairly small and written in Chinese.
The fact that this footage shows off such high quality graphics and gameplay indicates the title is getting close to a release. There are a plethora of combination attacks and special magic abilities utilized in the video that would point to late development.
