Get ready for an exciting adventure with Square Enix's latest HD-2D masterpiece, The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales! But here's the twist: you can unlock some incredible bonuses if you've got the right save data from other Square Enix titles.
Unleash the Power of Save Data Bonuses!
If you're a fan of Square Enix's previous games, you're in for a treat. By linking your save data from specific titles, you can unlock unique bonuses in The Adventures of Elliot. But here's where it gets controversial: these bonuses are not just for show; they can give you a serious edge in the game!
For instance, imagine wielding a sword with increased damage and critical hit chances, or reducing the charge time for powerful attacks. These bonuses, known as 'Sword Magicite,' can be yours if you've played Octopath Traveler 0, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, Various Daylife, or TRIANGLE STRATEGY.
Here's a breakdown of the bonuses you can unlock:
- OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0: Guidance of the Sacred Flame - Boosts sword damage against enemies with low vitality.
- DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake: Critical Hit - Increases sword critical hit rate.
- BRAVELY DEFAULT FLYING FAIRY HD Remaster: Brave - Enhances sword damage but uses more shield stamina when guarding.
- VARIOUS DAYLIFE: Expeditionary Wisdom - Reduces sword charge time.
- TRIANGLE STRATEGY: Counter Stance - Increases sword damage when shield stamina is high.
And this is the part most people miss: these bonuses are not just for show! They can significantly impact your gameplay experience, giving you an advantage in battles and making your adventures more thrilling.
But there's a catch: the save data must be on the same Switch 2 console, and if you're playing on Switch 2, you'll need to transfer the data from the original Switch.
The good news? You can claim these bonuses at any time, even if you create the save data after starting The Adventures of Elliot. However, Square Enix hasn't confirmed if this promotion will be permanent, so don't miss out!
To claim your bonuses, follow these simple steps when the game launches on June 18th, 2026:
- Select the Promotional Bonus option from the title screen of The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales.
- Link with any corresponding titles by opening the relevant screen.
- Start a new game and head to the Age of Safekeeping orphanage's second floor.
- Examine the desk and select Claim bonuses from the menu to unlock your qualifying bonuses.
- Note that there are specific points in the game when you can't claim bonuses, like when the orphanage is temporarily inaccessible.
One bonus to look out for is the Departure Brooch, which increases the amount of in-game currency and magicite fragments dropped by enemies.
