Bandi Namco has announced a new original title, Scarlet Nexus, for all major current and Next-Gen consoles along with the PC.

The game was first announced on May 8 for the Xbox consoles. This was followed by the trailer being posted on PlayStation’s YouTube channel. It has also been confirmed that the game will be coming to the PC (via Steam).

Scarlet Nexus is a new anime style RPG that is being developed and published by Bandai Namco in collaboration with the creators of the Tales of series. No release date has been set but one could expect either a late 2020 to Holiday 2021 launch.

Set in the distant future, the world has changed following the discovery of a psionic hormone in the human brain. This attracts mutants known as “Others” who have a hunger for brains and are impervious to conventional weapons. A select few with acute extra-sensory abilities are the only chance to fight the Others.

Check out the trailer above to have an idea of what to expect. More information will be made available in the coming future.
