We're already halfway through August, meaning that PlatinumGames'
Astral Chain is only a few more weeks away from releasing — launching exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on the
30th of August.
Just a couple of days ago,
PlatinumGames treated us to some amazing concept art for Astral Chain, which gave us a good look at some early designs for the Legion robots, as well as some of the characters; all of this in order to keep players anticipating the game's release.
Today, we get some action-packed gameplay footage thanks to the people over at Video Games Chronicle — who have made a short video of the first hours of gameplay in
Astral Chain; showing off a high-octane opening sequence that sees one of the main characters fighting enemies on a motorcycle.
Take a look:
Astral Chain is a new action game from PlatinumGames, the creators of the Bayonetta™ series. As part of a police special forces unit in a multi-cultural futuristic city, players work together with a humanoid special weapon, Legion, in a synergetic action system of battle and exploration.
Astral Chain will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on the 30th of August.
