As part of the ongoing Steam Next Fest festivities, the team behind CrossCode is giving players a rare look behind the scenes. This isn't just a standard gameplay showcase; multiple developers will be hopping onto voice chat to answer community questions in real-time. For those of us who have been digging into the demo, it's a prime opportunity to get technical about the game's 2.5D perspective and stylish combat mechanics.
What makes this stream particularly interesting for RPG fans is the promise of seeing development tools in action. The developers have hinted that they might showcase content that exists beyond the current scope of the public demo. If you've been wondering how the world-building for this post-awakening fantasy setting actually works, or how they balance those complex hack-and-slash combos, this is the place to be.
The move to host an AMA during Next Fest suggests Radical Fish Games is leaning heavily into community feedback as they refine the experience. Seeing the actual tools used to forge the game's puzzles and divine weapon systems should provide some great insight into the level of depth we can expect when the full game eventually launches. Make sure to head over to the Steam store page to catch the broadcast and get your questions ready for the team.
