Astral Chain | Platinum Games (August 30th, Switch exclusive)

[DiamondX]

A Nintendo Switch exclusive game made by Platinum Games is releasing on August 30th.

The game is about a futuristic city and its police special force units.

 

I think that the game looks great and I can't wait to see more.

Certainly looks cool, but I'm hoping the combat is as varied as Bayonetta's was. The combat in Nier: Automata was too simplistic for me to fully enjoy the game. 

[Blue Wisp]

Oh fuck.

The art design sold me.

Well Platinum Games you might have just given me a reason to get a Switch finally.

I hope Platinum Games does a good job from start to finish with this game as it looks rather nice.

[Shaun Shikeishuu]

Looks awesome. Glad to see plenty of games coming to the Switch soon that I want.

[Blue Blood]

This looks really exciting. Totally out of the blue announcement and it's coming really soon. I'll be following it pretty closely. I wonder if this is getting priority over Bayonetta 3? As in, Bayonetta is a big Nintendo exclusive so this is something planned to bring a new IP to the table and assisting to buy B3 some more time.

I was really surprised that the Nier director is directing this. I thought for sure he'd be doing the sequel to Nier.

The game looks really cool. While watching the Direct, I first was thinking "Is this Platinum?" until the robot dog appeared, and I was 100% sure it was Platinum lol

Considering how Yoko Taro now is mostly involved in writing an Automata-themed scenario for the next expansion of Final Fantasy XIV, i can see why the director allowed himself to do this project instead.

[CrownSlayers Shadow]

Looks like Bayonetta/Devil May Cry meets Xenoblade/Metal Gear Rising...with a bit of Jet Force Gemini.

I’m sold!

Anything with a super robo doggo in it has my attention.

I swear Pstar has their hands in so many pies these days. You'd think they'd be over-reaching themselves, but they just keep cranking out gems.
