And as to be expected it looks good. Even though we're not too sure what's happening story wise. As per the description, players will be "part of a police special forces unit in a multi-cultural futuristic city" where it seems multi-character action via spectral or energy chains is a thing, and frenetic melee combat is the order of the day.

Yeah, one of those things you need to see to get.



It looks damn good too, and will launch exclusively on Nintendo Switch August 30. As per the trailer Astral Chain is set to feature a mix of Bayonetta style fast-paced action in addition to exploration across large open areas. The game has impressive talent behind the scenes too with Takahisa Taura directing, who's known for his work as the designer on NieR:Automata, plus Hideki Kamiya, the creator of the Bayonetta series, supervising.
