Astral Chain

Earlier this week, the latest official blog post for Astral Chain went live. This one is from Koji Ishida (character modeling artist), who came to talk about the process they used to put finishing touches on how the characters appear in-game. Click here to learn more about this!

Here’s an excerpt:

The character modeling staff put a lot of hard work into making the models themselves look cool, but all that effort would just fade into the background without special lighting and effects for those characters. But what did that mean for us, exactly? Should we err on the side of a more realistic approach? Or go all the way towards smooth, anime-like cel shading? But if we did that, they’d clash with the realism in the environments… We gnawed on this problem for a while, and eventually settled on a hybrid approach. We started with realistic, physics-based lighting, and then put special character-only lighting effects on top of that to give them that distinct anime pop. Masakazu Katsura’s designs themselves have a strong anime and manga pedigree, after all!

And here’s some pictures:

Astral Chain (Switch) comes out on August 30th worldwide.
