Bandai Namco's upcoming anime-inspired video game "The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia" is mainly about fighting fast-paced battles. Still, recent gameplay trailers suggest that the game has a lot more to offer than just these fights. New trailers for the game also highlight Adventure Mode.

Adventure Mode is a break from the fast-paced action of "The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia." It lets players visit some memorable locations, including the Boar Hat Tavern. Choosing a character and playing them in Adventure Mode will relive that character's story.

The story of each featured character is expected to be retold as closely as it was told in the manga that inspired the game.

There are also characters that are exclusive to Adventure Mode.

This means that the character cannot participate in the main part of the role-playing game, and instead can only be played in Adventure mode. Included in this set of characters are Elizabeth and Giant Diane.

The Adventure Mode trailer can be seen as the final chapter in a series of trailers for the game released by Bandai Namco. The eight-part trailer series highlights the stories of the main characters.

As for the game's actual story, Bandai Namco gives a straightforward description of the upcoming game. Players will need to "assemble" a group of knights collectively called The Seven Deadly Sins in order to save the Kingdom of Liones from a threat.

It is based on a manga of the same title created by Nakaba Suzuki. The first chapter was originally published in August 2014.

"The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Brittania" will be available on Feb. 9 of this year. It will be released for the PlayStation 4.

Bandai Namco is the developer of many anime-inspired video games. Recently, they have also been promoting the launch of another fighting game, "Dragon Ball FighterZ."
