At the 2021 Game Awards Ceremony, DokeV showed off a new music video that showed some monsters that players can expect after the release.

DokeV is an upcoming creature collection game from Pearl Abyss Game Studios. At the 2021 Game Awards ceremony, it showcased a new music video containing some monsters that players can look forward to. Their names, any classifications about them, and how they will help players enter or exit the battle are now up in the air. Although there is little information about games, especially the biological information in them, music videos do provide a small amount of information about them, at least on the surface.

So far, the trailers released by Pearl Abyss mainly focus on crossing and gameplay, but the game's wiki does provide some detailed information about monsters. According to the wiki, these creatures are called Dokebi, and they get power from dreams. The open world game DokeV incorporates Korean culture in its trailers and new music videos, so the influence from Korean theology and mythology is not impossible. Dokebi is invisible, requires special glasses to see, and can be stored in a small chip. The 2021 Game Awards music video showed several monsters, but did not provide detailed information about them. So far, DokeV has portrayed itself as a high-energy, high-octane hybrid between Yokai Watch, Pokémon and Sunset Overdrive. It remains to be seen what the Dokebi will look like and what role they will play, but so far they look promising.

The 2021 Game Awards music video showcases several monsters players can expect from DokeV. Some look like bicolor cats wearing hats, some look like pink anteaters, and many more bears with eye masks. From the reveal trailer of DokeV, the pleasant game chaos promised by the game is mainly related to fighting them or taking advantage of the game's traversal options. Dokebi mostly danced with a few human characters on the stage of the video, but after the video was completed, there was a brief scene in which some people were hiding in what appeared to be a temple. Judging from the player character, the judgement passed The expansion hammer they have shown in past trailers. Whether this is just a humorous sketch or the sample fans can expect to see in the game is uncertain.

Towards the end of the music video, many creatures of DokeV dance with a few humans on the stage. They all emerge from the colorful light, which is consistent with what they have been shown in past trailers so far. There are few news and updates about DokeV creatures, but I hope that as the release of the game gets closer and closer, there will be more news. From the video and other reveals, most of them appear to be anthropomorphic bipedal creatures, and some are wearing hats, pants, and even cloaks. Many of them are similar to animals, but some also have plant-like or man-made features, such as a clock on the head.

The Dokebi list at the front and center of the stage includes a vertically split black and white cat, a pink anteater, an unidentified humanoid creature, a blue-green lizard, a red-faced white-haired creature, and a A white dog in a blue cloak, a round red-skinned creature like an apple in black shorts, another rounded creature with brown-white fur and a plant stem sticking out of its head, and another with a large patch. White acne humanoid with its hair and blue suit. All of this comes together with major announcements and game showcases for the 2021 Game Awards.

Farther behind is a white bear wearing an eye mask and boxing gloves, a hedgehog with grass as a feather pen and a red nose, a blue and white shark-like creature, and a snowman wearing a scarf and gloves. An unidentified green and black creature, a humanoid with a red round head and yellow hair, a blue fishing fish, and a brown bull. There are quite a few Dokebi on the stage, more than the first ones, and they all dance with their human counterparts. Many of them have appeared in previous trailers, although there are also some new faces.

The details of the mysterious Dokebi that players will be able to collect and fight in DokeV so far are unclear, but some inferences can be made from music videos, past trailers, and other available information. Unlike Pokémon, it promises to provide true open-world gameplay, which allows Dokebi to move more freely, giving players more options to find and chase them. The fact that they wear clothes and have some artificial features means that they are not just ordinary animal-like creatures like the Pokemon of the Pokémon series. They seem to have some form of intelligence, and their interference with human daily life makes them sound more like monsters in a monster watch.

The most watched game in The Game Awards may not be DokeV, but this does not mean that music videos have no details of their own. Due to the presence of several human characters in the video and trailer, DokeV may have many humans to collect and fight Dokebi. The meaning of the temple scene may not be clear, but if you take it seriously, the world it portrays is different from the fun, high-energy experience portrayed in DokeV's music videos and trailers. If nothing else, the pitch changes in the game may be more than previously thought. The human hunting of Dokby may become a major theme and the main source of plot for the game. In this regard, it adopts the theme of the Digimon series, especially the latest game entry, Digimon Story: Memories of Cyber ​​Detectives and Hackers. If DokeV chooses to develop in this direction, it can provide players with a deep story, difficult choices and touching narratives.
