Gameplay

 * The three key features of adventure, battle, and commerce are kept intact, though multiplayer options are further emphasized.
 * Free sailing from the older games makes a return.
 * Navigators are hired via gacha roulette or playing the game normally. Their stats are tied to one of four rarity levels (Common, Rare, Epic, Legend). Like in the previous title, the game's recruitable navigators comprise of both historical and original characters.
 * Exploration is done in the form of a board game where navigators are used as effect cards to form proposals and enemies are automatically fought RPG-style. Defeating enemies yield various treasures and other discoveries. Bases may also be built to help restore lost health after suffering a defeat.
 * Naval battles now take place in real-time format. During combat, only the flagship is controlled by the player. The rest of the fleet will respond accordingly depending on what actions are taken. Navigator skills can be used at any time, but they have cooldown periods that prevent overuse.
 * At the moment, PvP content includes a tag team battle.
 * Unlike previous titles, the sixth installment prioritizes the construction of facilities like farms and mines to produce trade goods. New facilities become available as players progress through the story.
 * Some products are made by combining different goods alone or with the help of other players. It is possible to exchange these goods by joining a guild.
 * Various quests can be taken via the quest board menu.
 * The game is divided into several chapters, with Europe serving as the starting point. Each chapter has its own NPC partner, though players are free to switch between them once their respective stories are cleared.
 * Story events are similar to Daikoukai Jidai V. However, character avatars are now animated with Live2D.
