Barrage, Seekers, and Shield Named as Resonant Ability Choices

The first reported Resonant ability choice includes Barrage, Seekers, and Shield. Each option changes Dylan’s combat toolkit in a different way and supports Remedy’s claim that boss rewards create meaningful specialization.

What was confirmed

Barrage pulls rocks from the ground and launches them at range. Seekers summons an automatically firing construct that can also be thrown as an explosive. Shield raises floating rocks defensively and can be turned into offense by dashing into enemies.

The preview says Dylan can eventually equip three abilities, while the broader build includes primary, secondary, and finisher attacks. New Game Plus later expands the rules by allowing multiple different Combat Abilities associated with the same boss.

These descriptions come from a tested media build, not a guessed reading of footage. The full boss list, alternative reward branches, resource costs, cooldown behavior, and final balance remain outside the confirmed database until the retail version can be checked.

Key takeaways

• Barrage is a ranged rock attack
• Seekers combines a summon with an explosive throw
• Shield supports defense and offensive dashing
