Guiding her through the darkness is a floating ball of light named Igniculus, who can be controlled by a second player. Aurora and Igniculus have entirely different playstyles. There will be places Igniculus can travel but Aurora cannot, in addition to their skills during battle. Aurora is the recognizable RPG standard \u2013 attacking and defending against enemies using magic and her massive sword \u2013 while Igniculus uses his light source to blind enemies and slow them down, directly heal comrades and collect orbs to restore the party member\u2019s health and mana.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->The game is inspired by fairy tales and epic poems and all dialogue in the game is spoken in rhyme. During battles, the game also includes an Active Time Battle System meter at the bottom of the screen that lets you know how soon each character \u2013 friend and foe \u2013 will be able to move. Igniculus can throw this off, though, by blinding enemies, which slows them down and gives Aurora (along with her party) a slight advantage.<\/p>\n<p><em>Child of Light<\/em> will be released for PS4, PS3, Wii U, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC in 2014.
