What to study
The daytime plaza arena trades the night arenas' gloom for shopfronts and star decals, and the bottom of the screen gains a hand of three Eidos cards, one greyed out, which is the actual decision the player makes each turn. The card hand is the study point: it sits low and quiet under the fight instead of crowding the centre, so the arena stays readable while the choice stays reachable. Frame at about 118s in the Final Closed Beta Gameplay Showcase (YouTube). Pre-release footage; the Final Closed Beta begins November 25, 2026 and the game launches spring 2027. A Work in Progress / Subject to Change watermark is visible in the frame.
