About Mercenaries Rebirth: Call of the Wild Lynx
Mercenaries Rebirth: Call of the Wild Lynx is a tactical RPG that stages combat on quarter‑view maps with height differences. The front, back, and side of the map influence battle outcomes and support effects, making unit placement a core strategic element.
The title adds 3D‑rendered battlefields that rotate during the player’s turn, smooth pixel‑art animations, a Rebirth Exceed gauge that fills from attacking and defending, and a robust options menu that lets players toggle grid visibility, skill ease, and movement speed.
01 / THE GUIDE
Quarter‑View Maps and Height
Battles take place on quarter‑view maps that include vertical layers. The side of the map—front, back, or side—determines each encounter’s result and modifies support effects based on where allies stand.
Because height matters, players must evaluate both horizontal distance and elevation when planning moves. Positioning units on higher ground can change the effectiveness of attacks and the reach of support abilities.
- Check the map’s elevation before committing a unit to an attack.
- Place allies on higher tiles when you need stronger support bonuses.
02 / THE GUIDE
Rebirth Exceed Gauge
A gauge in the upper‑right corner fills whenever the player attacks or defends. When enough power accumulates, a character can activate a unique skill called “Rebirth Exceed.”
Each character’s Rebirth Exceed talent differs, ranging from high‑damage attacks to reviving fallen allies. The gauge therefore rewards a balance of offensive and defensive actions.
- Mix attacks and defenses to keep the gauge filling steadily.
- Reserve Rebirth Exceed for moments when a character’s special talent matches the battle need.

Smooth Character Animations
Both human characters and monsters feature smoother animations created by animating parts of their pixel art. These motions are more vivid than in earlier titles, giving each combatant a more active visual presence.
The animation system also conveys facial expressions—joy, sadness, anger—without altering underlying gameplay mechanics.
- Watch enemy animation cues for hints about upcoming actions.
- Notice expression changes to gauge ally status during combat.

3D Battle Maps and Rotating Camera
Battlefields are rendered as 3D models, and the camera can rotate during the player’s turn. Rotating the view can reveal hidden items and provides a clearer sense of terrain.
Changing perspective lets players examine the battlefield from multiple angles, improving situational awareness before deciding on moves.
- Rotate the camera at the start of each turn to scan for hidden items.
- Use different angles to better assess enemy placement on varied heights.
05 / THE GUIDE
Full Options Settings
The options menu includes toggles such as Grid Display ON/OFF on 3D maps, “Skill Easy Play,” and “Faster Movement Play.” These settings aim to improve repeat‑play value and accommodate different preferences.
Adjusting these options can streamline gameplay, making battles faster or visually clearer depending on the player’s desired experience.
- Disable the grid if you prefer a cleaner view of the 3D map.
- Enable Faster Movement Play for quicker testing of strategies.
