Official description

From legendary game developer Rare Ltd. comes Kameo: Elements of Power, a larger-than-life journey full of intense combat, magnificent exploration, and innovative action.

The future of Kameo's world hangs in the balance in this imaginative action-packed game. Only Kameo, who has the ability to morph into powerful monsters, can combat the evil troll king and his mighty army to free her mother the Queen and her Ancestors.

To pull off this rescue, you'll need to unleash your arsenal of 10 incredible elemental warriors. But an array of brutal attacks and impressive weaponry alone won't save the world from evil. Crafty use of your creatures is also vital to succeeding your quest. The power to choose is yours as you battle through and explore this sprawling fantasy world.

In true Rare fashion, the world is wondrous, the challenges are brilliant, and the combat innovative and unique.

Features:

Experience monsterous action: Discover a dazzling array of incredible monsters, each with its own fantastical strengths and fighting styles. To defeat the hordes of evil, players must strategically employ 10 elemental monsters from the five Elements of Power: Plant, Water, Rock, Ice, and Fire. Evolve Kameo's powers and abilities by tracking down, capturing, and harnessing the unique powers of each creature.

Unleash an impressive arsenal of attacks and weaponry: With fast-paced action, loads of enemies, and massive boss encounters, success depends on the ability to think and act quickly using a boundless monster repertoire, skillful command of attacks, and keen ability to use "quick switch" combinations. Engage in up-close combat with a wicked boxing plant monster Pummel Weed, switch over to the rock monster Rubble to launch salvos of rocks, and finish off enemies as an ice yeti named Chilla by throwing penetrating ice spears. Players have the freedom to use roughly 30 unique attack and exploration abilities, with the ability to enhance their skills through a variety of upgrades.

Innovative combat system: A sophisticated combat scoring system will track players' effectiveness to outmaneuver, fight, and destroy the enemy. Vanquish foes with quick brutal attacks using the environment and a combination of monsters.

Monsterous exploration: Monsters are key for combat, but also vital tools for exploration. Crafty use of monsters coupled with agility and timing is critical to unlocking new worlds, solving environment puzzles, and avoiding obstructions, traps, and enemies. Use monsters to tunnel underground, climb ice walls, jump ramps, blow up obstacles, and much more.

Action-packed journey across an immense world: Explore a vast and magical world filled with lush environments, wondrous creatures, clever puzzles, and big challenges. Gorgeous 3-D environments with sprawling hills, fertile valleys, and threatening lairs cover multiple fantasy-style locations and the dangerous Troll Castle. Battle relentless armies, go toe-to-toe with powerful elemental trolls, and confront daunting, yet outrageous, bosses.
