Characters

Jimiken

Jimiken is a returning character from Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth. He was unsatisfied with the management of the largest hacker group, known as “Zaxon,” and decided to create his own hacker group called “Demons.”

 

K

K is a new character and a mysterious hacker. He desires to chase after the criminal who has been after the player’s account.

Online Battle Modes

Ranked Battles  will have predetermined rules and rating points, while Event Battles – which has special rules that change every two weeks – will not affect the player’s score, but will reward them with items.

In Free Rule Battles, players will be able to create their own room and invite up to eight friends. This is an improvement change over the previous game, where online battles were completely randomized and there was no proper way to battle against friends.

Accessories

Players will earn coins from ranked and event battle modes which can then be used to purchase accessories for the player’s Digimon or to change the appearance of their online avatar. Avatars are only cosmetic changes and it is currently unknown if Digimon accessories affect their stats.
