A little over a dozen years after the last disaster, the Four Sinistrals have returned, seeking to reopen the Abyss Gates and bring ruin to the world. On their journey to save the world, players can choose which lands to visit, which stories to pursue and the order in which to confront the Sinistrals, ensuring a unique adventure with every playthrough.
