The game uses a top-down exploration structure with first-person style battles. Players travel through ruined Tokyo, underground facilities, and other hostile areas while recruiting and fusing demons to build a party suited to different enemies and scenarios. Combat is turn-based and emphasizes elemental weaknesses, resistances, and skill synergy. Towns provide shops, healing, dialogue, and story clues, while faction-aligned choices shape progression and endings.
